The main axes of analysis are the economic, technical and institutional aspects of the industry in relation to the wider international context of shipping and trade. Based on unpublished archival sources, multi-language secondary literature and the employment of interdisciplinary theoretical tools Apostolos Delis not only highlights the national and international significance of Syros’ shipbuilding industry, but also contributes novel material to our knowledge of wooden shipbuilding in the Mediterranean.Brill's studies in maritime history ;2.Shipbuilding industryGreeceSyrosHistory19th centuryShips, WoodenGreeceSyrosHistory19th centuryShips, WoodenGreeceSyrosDesign and constructionSailing shipsGreeceSyrosHistory19th centuryShipyardsGreeceSyrosHistory19th centuryHermoupolis (Greece)Economic conditions19th centurySyros Island (Greece)History, Naval19th centuryShipbuilding industryHistoryShips, WoodenHistoryShips, WoodenDesign and construction.Sailing shipsHistoryShipyardsHistory623.8207Delis Apostolos1661492MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910822628403321Mediterranean wooden shipbuilding4017428UNINA
