The Captive Sea: Slavery, Communication, and Commerce in Early Modern Spain and the Mediterranean
Daniel Hershenzon
The Captive Sea explores the entangled histories of Muslim and Christian captives-and, by extension, of the Spanish Empire, Ottoman Algiers, and Morocco-in the seventeenth-century to argue that piracy, captivity, and redemption helped shape the Mediterranean as an integrated region at the social, political, and economic levels.
