The result is a fresh and geographically wide-ranging discussion about the nature of family and its intersection with travel over a three hundred year period during which roles and relationships, within and between households, were increasingly affected by trade, settlement, and empire building. The imperial project may have influenced different regions in different ways at different times yet, as this collection reveals, families, especially those transcending national ties and traditional boundaries were central to its progress. Together, these essays bring new understandings of the foundations of our interconnected world and of the people who contributed to it UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9789048544257?locatt=mode:legacy UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9789048544257 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9789048544257/original ER -
