    Alison Games is the Dorothy M. Brown Distinguished Professor of History at Georgetown University, where she has taught since 1995. She previously taught in the History Department at Grinnell College. She is the author of Migration and the Origins of the English Atlantic World (Cambridge, Mass., 1999); co-author (with Douglas R. Egerton, Kris E. Lane, and Donald R. Wright) of The Atlantic World: A History, 1400–1888 (forthcoming); and co-editor (with Adam Rothman) of Major Problems in Atlantic History (forthcoming). She is happily exploring the world beyond the Atlantic in a book she is completing on English global expansion in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. I wish to thank readers who looked at earlier versions of this article, especially Wim Klooster and the anonymous reviewers for the AHR, and colleagues who heard and commented on aspects of this piece at conferences. I also thank Douglas Egerton, David Hancock, Kris Lane, John McNeill, Jennifer Morgan, Marcy Norton, Adam Rothman, John Tutino, Jim Williams, and Donald Wright for many helpful conversations on the challenges of teaching and writing regional, Atlantic, and global histories.

  • Descrição: Games explores the convergence of the multiple strands of scholarly interest that have generated the new field of study in ocean history. She argues that Atlantic history is best approached as a slice of world history.
