It covers the entanglements of maritime mobility and immobility as they are  articulated and problematized in selected literature and cultural forms from the  early modern period to the present. In particular, it brings cultural mobility studies  into conversation with the maritime and oceanic humanities. The contributors  examine the interface between the traditional Eurocentric imagination of the sea  as romantic and metaphorical, and the materiality of the sea as a deathbed for  racialized and illegalized humans as well as non-human populations\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Introduction: Maritime Im\/mobilities. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Storied Waves: Maritime Connections and Subaltern Knowledge in Arctic and Mediterranean Literary Contact Zones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Birds of the Plastic Pacific: Moving (the) Masses.- 4.
