The Mariners team are delighted to launch our project website: https://mar.ine.rs/
Built and designed with the help of Millipedia and Periscope, the website offers ‘stories’ about key events, individuals, places and institutions associated with the Mariners project i.e. related to missions to British and Asian seafarers at British ports between between 1801 and 1914.
You can navigate the site through the ‘Where’, ‘When’, ‘Who’ and ‘What’ to read dedicated sections on the four port cities the project covers – Bristol, Hull, Liverpool and London – a timeline and further stories showcasing our research findings.
We launched the site at a gathering of the Faculty of Arts in the University of Bristol on Monday 20 November 2023
Work on the website will be ongoing as we add new stories while we continue to work on the project, and we hope to add interviews and other materials in the lead up to the project’s travelling exhibition in 2025. Please do visit the site and scroll through to find out more about our research. Our contact details are on the site if any one has any feedback or would like to write stories to add to the site.
