By merging these seemingly disparate strands in the scholarship of world history and medieval studies into a single volume, this book offers new insights into the history of medieval Sicily and the study of maritime violence. As several of the essays in this volume demonstrate, maritime violence fundamentally shaped experience in the medieval Mediterranean, as every ship that sailed, even those launched for commerce or travel, anticipated the possibility of encountering pirates, or dabbling in piracy themselves. 410 0$aMediterranean Perspectives,$x2731-5606 606 $aEurope$xHistory$x476-1492 606 $aItaly$xHistory 606 $aCivilization$xHistory 606 $aHistory of Medieval Europe 606 $aHistory of Italy 606 $aCultural History 615 0$aEurope$xHistory$x476-1492. 615 0$aItaly$xHistory. 615 0$aCivilization$xHistory. 615 14$aHistory of Medieval Europe. 615 24$aHistory of Italy. 615 24$aCultural History. 676 $a364.164 676 $a945.8 702 $aReyerson$b Kathryn 702 $aTai$b Emily Sohmer 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910592985103321 996 $aMapping pre-modern Sicily$93009831 997 $aUNINA
