According to Mentz, Blue Humanities "explore the many ways humans engage with <a href="https://akademienl.social/tags/water" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>water</span></a>". It's also interesting to explore when and how a certain <a href="https://akademienl.social/tags/research" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>research</span></a> perspective (like "water-centric thinking") becomes a discipline or an interdisciplinary community of scholars that pursue a shared objective. <a href="https://akademienl.social/tags/AcademicBooks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AcademicBooks</span></a></p>

Jason M. Kelly<p>In 1752, John Bond, a doctor in London proposed adopting Polybius' description of a ballista for whaling. He even built a ballista and sent it to the Royal Academy, claiming that it would give Britain an edge over Dutch whalers. He jubilantly wrote that one gun was equal to 100 harpooners, but that these laborers would resist the invention because they had "strong prejudice against all improvements." </p><p><a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/envhist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>envhist</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/socialhistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>socialhistory</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/bluehumanities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bluehumanities</span></a></p>
Sophia Nicolov<p>Next in the Charismatic Encounters series is an interview with ecologist &amp; Director of Yorkshire Coast Nature, Richard Baines, about the Seabird and Whale trips he runs, with opportunities to see minke whales, bottlenose dolphins &amp; other marine wildlife.

Sophia Nicolov<p>A favourite piece of the project has to be the timeline of whales in Yorkshire's history and heritage.

Okay, I am more and more interested in #AncMed #BlueHumanities. This field just combines all of my interests. So, where to start? I already have two introductions about Greco-Roman piracy and one intro to Roman shipbuilding, but there has to be more, right? Where is all the good stuff? Any entry points you'd recommend? Boosts appreciated ...
