‎The Dynamics of Ancient Empires: State Power from Assyria to Byzantium‎

‎8vo, br. ed. pp.400. Transcending ethnic, linguistic, and religious boundaries, early empires shaped thousands of years of world history. Yet despite the global prominence of empire, individual cases are often studied in isolation. This series seeks to change the terms of the debate by promoting cross-cultural, comparative, and transdisciplinary perspectives on imperial state formation prior to the European colonial expansion. The world's first known empires took shape in Mesopotamia between the eastern shores of the Mediterranean Sea and the Persian Gulf, beginning around 2350 BCE. The next 2,500 years witnessed sustained imperial growth, bringing a growing share of humanity under the control of ever-fewer states. Two thousand years ago, just four major powers-the Roman, Parthian, Kushan, and Han empires-ruled perhaps two-thirds of the earth's entire population. Yet despite empires' prominence in the early history of civilization, there have been surprisingly few attempts to study the dynamics of ancient empires in the western Old World comparatively. Such grand comparisons were popular in the eighteenth century, but scholars then had only Greek and Latin literature and the Hebrew Bible as evidence, and necessarily framed the problem in different, more limited, terms. Near Eastern texts, and knowledge of their languages, only appeared in large amounts in the later nineteenth century. Neither Karl Marx nor Max Weber could make much use of this material, and not until the 1920s were there enough archaeological data to make syntheses of early European and west Asian history possible. But one consequence of the increase in empirical knowledge was that twentieth-century scholars generally defined the disciplinary and geographical boundaries of their specialties more narrowly than their Enlightenment predecessors had done, shying away from large questions and cross-cultural comparisons. As a result, Greek and Roman empires have largely been studied in isolation from those of the Near East. This volume is designed to address these deficits and encourage dialogue across disciplinary boundaries by examining the fundamental features of the successive and partly overlapping imperial states that dominated much of the Near East and the Mediterranean in the first millennia BCE and CE. A substantial introductory discussion of recent thought on the mechanisms of imperial state formation prefaces the five newly commissioned case studies of the Neo-Assyrian, Achaemenid Persian, Athenian, Roman, and Byzantine empires. A final chapter draws on the findings of evolutionary psychology to improve our understanding of ultimate causation in imperial predation and exploitation in a wide range of historical systems from all over the globe. Contributors include John Haldon, Jack Goldstone, Peter Bedford, Josef Wiesehofer, Ian Morris, Walter Scheidel, and Keith Hopkins, whose essay on Roman political economy was completed just before his death in 2004.‎

A namesake of the famous Salem merchant ship and privateer during the War of 1812 ship “America” built in 1803-1804 made five privateer cruises in 1812-1815 broken up in 1831 this “America” was built on the New York shipyard of Adam and Noah Brown for the noted local merchant company “Minturn & Champlin” and launched in May 1809 shortly before her first voyage The United States Gazette May 15 1809 p. 3. The ship’s tonnage was 493 tons Morrison J.H. History of New York Ship Yards. N.Y. 1909 p. 47. On June 21 1809 New York authorities cleared “America” for a voyage to Canton under the command of Captain Mather Evening Post Marine List// The Evening Post. New York June 21 1809 p. 3.</p><p>The logbook opens with “America’s” 158-day outbound voyage starting on June 24 1809 when the ship discharged the pilot after the passing of the Sandy Hook spit at the south entrance to New York Bay. She passed the Cape of Good Hope on September 12-13 1809 without calling at port and crossed the Indian Ocean choosing the route to China via the Alas Strait between Lombok and Sumbawa Islands Lesser Sunda Islands of Indonesia. On October 21-22 “America” anchored near the “Bally Town” also marked “Laboagee” on some old maps; it is a settlement south of the modern-day town of Selong on the east coast of Lombok to get fresh water and trade for fresh supplies. A part of the crew went on shore where they were received by a local “king” who also visited the ship.</p><p>“America” then crossed the “Java” Bali Sea proceeded north through the Makassar Strait between Borneo and Sulawesi crossed on October 26 – November 4 and went across the “Celebean” Celebes Sea towards the Pacific Ocean passing “Sarangaran” Sarangani and “Meangis” Miangas Islands. On November 11 1809 while in the “Celebean Sea” east of “Meangis” Island the compiler saw an island which “I did not find laid down in any chart Capt. Mather “America’s” Captain during the voyage in ship Aeolus from the Cape of Good Hope bound to China first discovered it on Sunday the 30th of November 1806…”</p><p>The ship then sailed north in the Western Pacific Ocean along the east coast of the Philippines November 13-24 crossed the South China Sea passing “Bashee” Babyan “Lemma” Lamma and “Ladrones” Wanshan Islands arriving to Macao Macau on November 29.</p><p>The goal of the voyage was to trade in Canton and quickly return to New York but “America” stayed there longer than expected. Captain Mather later reported that “all the English & American ships were embargoed at Canton from Jan. 27 to Feb. 22 in consequence of a new difficuly between the English and Chinese occasioned by a Chinese having been killed by a British seaman; and the English refused to deliver up any one unless the criminal could be pointed out which could not be done. It was expected the difficulty would be amicably settled” National Intelligencer. Washington City D.C. 18 June 1810 p. 3.</p><p>The logbook omits the ship’s almost three-month stay in China and resumes with her departure from Macao on February 24 1810. On her 104-days return voyage “America” crossed the South China Sea sailed through the Gaspar Strait between Bangka and Belitung Islands east of Sumatra Java Sea and Sunda Strait went across the Indian Ocean and passed Cape of Good Hope April 25 and St. Helena Island May 6. The logbook ends at sea south-east of New York Bay close to the point recorded on the first day of the outbound voyage. New York “Evening Post” newspaper reported that “Arrived at this port on Saturday last the following vessels with valuable cargoes: Ship America Mather 105 days from Canton and 44 from the Cape of Good Hope with teas nankeens china silk and cassia to Minturn and Champlin owners” Evening Post Marine List// The Evening Post. New York June 11 1810 p. 3.</p><p>The logbook follows the “America’s” voyage day by day thoroughly recording the ship’s geographical position and course weather winds currents operations with sails sundry works on board and ship’s repairs geographical objects passed vessels encountered termometer readings in the Strait of Alas and Western Pacific Ocean/ Philippine Sea the number of the day of the voyage and various events comets caught sharks fights on board an incident with a crew member falling overboard &c. Very interesting is a lengthy description of interactions with the inhabitants of the “Bally town” on Lombok Island where an “American ensign” was flying on shore notes about the sighting of an unknown island in the Western Pacific Ocean “two large comets” in the Indian Ocean endured storms various events on board names of encountered ships &c.</p><p>Overall an important content-rich source on the history of early American trade voyages to China at the beginning of the 19th century. One of the latest mentions of the ship “America’s voyage to Canton still commanded by “Captain Mather” and owned by “Messrs. Minturn & Champlin” dates back to 1815 Alexandria Gazette.
