(Ebook) When the Waves Ruled Britannia: Geography and Political Identities, 1500-1800 by Jonathan Scott ISBN 9780521195911, 0521195918

How did a rural & agrarian English society transform itself into a mercantile & maritime state? What role was played by war & the need for military security? How did geographical ideas inform the construction of English - & then British - political identities? 

Focusing upon the deployment of geographical imagery & arguments for political purposes, Jonathan Scott's ambitious & interdisciplinary study traces the development of the idea of Britain as an island nation, state & then empire from 1500 to 1800, through literature, philosophy, history, geography & travel writing. 

One argument advanced in the process concerns the maritime origins, nature & consequences of the English revolution. This is the first general study to examine changing geographical languages in early modern British politics, in an imperial, European & global context. Offering a new perspective on the nature of early modern Britain, it will be essential reading for students & scholars of the period.
