Transatlantic Slavery: Against Human DignityAnthony Tibbles Liverpool University Press, 2005 - Всего страниц: 180 Between about 1500 and about 1870, European traders transported millions of Africans across the Atlantic to work as slaves in the Americas. The enslaved were shipped in conditions of great cruelty to lead lives of hard unremitting labour, subject to degradation and violence. The products of their labour - primarily sugar, coffee and tobacco - were brought back to Europe and the profits derived from slavery helped to fuel European economic development in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The cost in human lives and suffering was enormous. But transatlantic slavery is not just a historical tragedy. Though there may be disagreement and controversy about the consequences, it changed the history of all three continents - Africa, America and Europe. All of us live live with its legacy. This book was originally published to accompany the opening of 'Transatlantic Slavery: Against Human Dignity', a new gallery at Merseyside Maritime Museum, Liverpool, in 1994. As National Museums Liverpool prepares to develop a new National Museum and Centre for the Understanding of Transatlantic Slavery, it is an appropriate moment to publish a second edition of this book, which has been in constant demand. The opportunity has been taken to include two additional essays which provide a context for new development. -- Publisher's description. |
