Unruly Desires - American...

William Benemann

In its voracious hunger to fill its decks and spars with the bodies of strong young sailors, the nineteenth century US Navy and the commercial maritime industry welcomed eccentrics, criminals, outcasts, and misfits into a community of the marginalized, one that held very different values and expectations than the towns and villages from which the young men fled, a community that offered a tentative refuge to men who were sexually attracted to other men. 
 
 
 
Drawing from biographies and autobiographies, diaries, newspapers, government reports, Congressional hearings, religious tracts, pornography, ships' logs, medical treatises, maritime fiction, court-martial reports, personal letters and business correspondence, Benemann provides an in-depth examination of nineteenth century LGBTQ culture as it developed at sea and in America's port cities.

The Great Famine of 1315-1317 -...

Sarah Willards

The Great Famine of 1315-1317 stands as one of the darkest periods in European history, marking a time of immense suffering, social upheaval, and devastation. It was not a single event but rather a prolonged crisis, which compounded existing vulnerabilities within medieval European society. The origins of the famine can be traced back to a confluence of environmental, social, and economic factors, all of which led to one of the worst food shortages ever experienced on the continent.
The famine’s roots can be found in the dramatic climatic changes of the early 14th century. The period known as the Little Ice Age brought cooler temperatures, and the years leading up to the famine saw unusual weather patterns. Prolonged rain, particularly during the summer months of 1315, led to flooding and crop failure, especially in regions dependent on staple grains like wheat, oats, and barley. The disastrous harvests were compounded by already strained food supplies and a growing population.
The impact of the famine was felt most acutely by the poorer classes, whose subsistence farming could not sustain them through such harsh conditions. The majority of the population in rural areas relied on farming for food and income, and with crops failing, their livelihoods were destroyed. Urban centers, though slightly better equipped to withstand hardship, faced sharp increases in food prices, making it difficult for even the wealthier classes to procure sustenance. Starvation, malnutrition, and poverty became widespread, leading to mass suffering across the continent.
