In The Great Museum of the Sea, archaeologist, museum director, television host, journalist, and award-winning author James Delgado takes the reader on a personal tour of the world of shipwrecks, including many of the more than one hundred lost ships he has personally discovered, investigated, excavated and shared in print and on screen. In these pages, Delgado explains why people care about shipwrecks--and why we have incorporated the concept of a shipwreck, and shipwrecks themselves, into our religions and cultures since the earliest civilizations.

This book shows that state elites decide to allocate land and natural resource rights to Indigenous people not as a response to human rights activism or democratic pressure, but to build an institutional apparatus that facilitates control over vulnerable territories in remote regions. By titling Indigenous lands, state elites create new institutional arrangements in property that allows for the subordination, monitoring, and management of Indigenous society.

Embracing Exile analyzes biblical and rabbinic texts, philosophical treatises, studies of Kabbalah, Hasidism, and a multiplicity of modern expressions for a comprehensive history of Jewish responses to and justifications of their diasporas. It shows that Diaspora Jews through the ages insisted that God joined them in their exiles, that "Zion" was found in Babylon and Eastern Europe, and that, as citizens of the world, Jews could only live throughout the world. The result is a convincing assertion that lament has not been the most common Jewish response to diaspora and that Zionism is not the natural outcome of either Jewish ideology or history.
