"A Medium in Which I Seek Relief": Manuscripts of American Sailors 1919-1940

Future Directions for Research

Ultimately, in-depth research was difficult for a one-semester capstone, especially when a good chunk of my time went to developing this scalar site, as well as scanning, transcribing, and annotating texts. The interdisciplinary nature of the subject matter, in areas in which I am not an expert, also made this project challenging. I believe the project contains some promising kernels relevant to scholarly conversations in Oceanic Studies, though I was not able to flesh them out to the degree I would have liked. A lot more reading would help with that.
