Abstract This article presents a project focusing on French private letters written during the 17th and 18th centuries. As the first French initiative to ever investigate this collection, the project aims to show how the alternative data provided by these letters can broaden the scope by filling the gaps left by traditional historical linguistics, focusing on one of French’s greatest periods of expansion and shedding new light on the dynamics and mechanisms that led to the existing French and creole varieties in America and in the Indian Ocean.

Full textAbstract:
The study of Mauritian Literature and the environment from an interdisciplinary perspective arouses various concerns and questionings such as the protection of planet Earth, the relation between characterisation and natural settings, the nature-culture dichotomy and nature writing. The fictionalisation and poeticization of Mauritian and Indian Ocean islands’ natural spaces in Loys Masson’s novels depict both man as Nature’s saviour and Nature as man’s saviour, in such a way that Nature’s raison d’être becomes Literature and aesthetics. Nature exists because it will eventually turn into a Book. Born at the end of the 20th century in American universities and closely linked to geocriticism and ecopoetics, ecocriticism thus provides new insights into Masson’s novels while reviving traditional French philosophical thoughts by Jean-Jacques Rousseau or Michel Serres.

Full textAbstract:
Epibiosis is a common phenomenon in marine systems. In marine environments, ciliates are among the most common organisms adopting an epibiotic habitus and nematodes have been frequently reported as their basibionts. In the present study, we report several new records of peritrich and suctorian ciliates-nematode association worldwide: from a deep-sea pockmark field in the NW Madagascar margin (Indian Ocean), from a shallow vent area in the Gulf of Naples (Mediterranean, Tyrrhenian Sea), in a MPA area in the Gulf of Trieste (Mediterranean, Adriatic Sea), from a mangrove system in French Guiana (South America, Atlantic Ocean), and from the Maldivian Archipelago. In addition, three new species of Suctorea from the Secca delle Fumose shallow vent area (Gulf of Naples) were described: Loricophrya susannae n. sp., Thecacineta fumosae n. sp. and Acinetopsis lynni n. sp. In the light of these new records and data from the existing literature, we discuss the suctorian–nematode epibiosis relationship as a lever to biodiversity.

Abstract In The Lives of Loréna (Les vies de Loréna, 2020), the Mauritian novelist Christine Duvergé chronicles the unraveling of her titular protagonist’s seemingly ideal existence while weaving together a double critique of the global fashion industry and Trump-era conservatism in the American heartland. This article focuses on the novel’s sociopolitical critiques, which find expression in expensive fashions and the abusive labor practices of the American overseas apparel industry. Described by Duvergé as a “subversive fairytale,” the novel illuminates a transnational network of capitalist greed, which powers the global clothing chain in which Mauritius has served historically as a vital, if exploited, link. Duvergé humanizes the poverty and physical suffering of garment workers in Mauritius, foregrounding imbalances and interdependencies characterizing today’s global apparel industry. As a North-South border-crossing narrative that integrates the protagonist’s memories of her homeland into how she experiences life in the United States, The Lives of Loréna is a timely addition to contemporary Indian Ocean French-language literature, which is, as Françoise Lionnet and Emmanuel Bruno Jean-François have stated, “producing locally grounded writing with global ambitions.”

Full textAbstract:
AbstractIn this paper we examine whether discourses of tropicality were affected by paradigm shifts in Western thinking about medicine. If tropicalist thinking reflects latent Western assumptions about the 'Other', tropicalism should persist through major shifts in Western thought. Here we explore whether or not such persistence is evident in representations in the scientific literature of mosquito-borne diseases on the Indian Ocean island of Réunion and where discrete epidemics occurred before, during and after a paradigm shift in Western thinking about disease causation. Late in the 19th Century, miasma theory (epidemics caused by unhealthy air) was replaced by microbial theory (epidemics caused by transmission of microbes) as the dominant scientific understanding of disease causation. We analyse representations of mosquito-borne epidemics in the contemporaneous scientific literature about Réunion for evidence of both tropicalism and a shift in the scientific paradigm. In pre-microbial representations, the unhealthy tropical environments thought to be responsible for miasmatic disease transmission are associated predominantly with the non-white population; in microbial representations non-whites are directly blamed for the spread of tropical infections. The paper argues that the persistence of tropicalist thinking through a major paradigm shift in the Western understanding of disease causation supports Said's (1979) contention that 'Othering' is a generalisable ahistorical phenomenon, and discusses issues of economic exigency that may have supported an ongoing tropicalist influence on public health practice in French overseas departments.

Full textAbstract:
Background Dengue is the world’s most prevalent mosquito-borne viral disease. It is endemic in many tropical and subtropical countries and represents a significant global health burden. The first reports of dengue virus (DENV) circulation in the South West Indian Ocean (SWIO) islands date back to the early 1940s; however, an increase in DENV circulation has been reported in the SWIO in recent years. The aim of this review is to trace the history of DENV in the SWIO islands using available records from the Comoros, Madagascar, Mauritius, Mayotte, Seychelles, and Reunion. We focus in particular on the most extensive data from Reunion Island, highlighting factors that may explain the observed increasing incidence, and the potential shift from one-off outbreaks to endemic dengue transmission. Methods Following the PRISMA guidelines, the literature review focused queried different databases using the keywords “dengue” or “Aedes albopictus” combined with each of the following SWIO islands the Comoros, Madagascar, Mauritius, Mayotte, Seychelles, and Reunion. We also compiled case report data for dengue in Mayotte and Reunion in collaboration with the regional public health agencies in these French territories. References and data were discarded when original sources were not identified. We examined reports of climatic, anthropogenic, and mosquito-related factors that may influence the maintenance of dengue transmission independently of case importation linked to travel. Findings and conclusions The first report of dengue circulation in the SWIO was documented in 1943 in the Comoros. Then not until an outbreak in 1976 to 1977 that affected approximately 80% of the population of the Seychelles. DENV was also reported in 1977 to 1978 in Reunion with an estimate of nearly 30% of the population infected. In the following 40-year period, DENV circulation was qualified as interepidemic with sporadic cases. However, in recent years, the region has experienced uninterrupted DENV transmission at elevated incidence. Since 2017, Reunion witnessed the cocirculation of 3 serotypes (DENV-1, DENV-2 and DENV-3) and an increased number of cases with severe forms and deaths. Reinforced molecular and serological identification of DENV serotypes and genotypes circulating in the SWIO as well as vector control strategies is necessary to protect exposed human populations and limit the spread of dengue.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract: Beginning in the early eighteenth century, a coherent body of racial policies emerged across the French Atlantic and Indian Oceans, targeting the socioeconomic status of people of non-European ancestry and restricting their right to marry or have sexual relations with French people. In addition to very specific local circumstances in the colonies, this coherent body of policies emerged because authorities attempted to standardize policies across the two oceans. The circulation of official correspondence and people on a transoceanic scale facilitated these changes. The scope of this standardization and circulation means that we cannot understand the full landscape of French racial discourse and policymaking unless we look at the Atlantic and Indian Oceans together. Yet the current historiography on race in the French colonies remains compartmentalized into smaller geographic units. Little work has been produced on race and racial policies for the French Indian Ocean, and the vast majority of publications on this topic have so far been produced by Atlantic specialists. Considering France's Atlantic and Indian Ocean colonies side by side demonstrates that racial policies in the Atlantic were shaped by developments in the Indian Ocean—and vice versa.

Full textAbstract:
This paper revisits the debate between Bickerton on the one hand and Seuren, Corne, Coleman and Curnow on the other on the question of whether serial verb constructions exist in the French creoles of the Indian Ocean (namely Seychelles Creole and Mauritian Creole). It examines data particularly from Mauritian Creole (which was rather marginally represented in that discussion) and argues in agreement with Bickerton (1989, 1996) that serial verbs do indeed exist in this creole just as they do in Seychelles Creole. However, it also argues that their presence in these languages must be attributed not to an innate linguistic mechanism (as claimed in Bickerton 1989, 1996) nor to a substrate source (contra Corne et al. 1996, Corne 1999) but to an independent internal development in which consecutive imperatives were reanalyzed as serial verb constructions. It is assumed that, given the socio-historical nature of creole contact situations, consecutive imperatives would have been a prominent part of early input as interchanges between those who spoke French and those who did not would have mostly been in the form of directives (commands, instructions, etc.) which are more often than not expressed through the imperative . However, it is recognized that this development could have benefited from substrate (particularly Malagasy) influence but it remains in the main the result of an internal diachronic process. The proposal outlined has interesting implications for the role of input and the role that adults may have played in the development of creole languages in general and serial verb constructions in particular. Some aspects of creole languages, it is suggested, can be adequately accounted for without having to implicate either an innate linguistic mechanism or wholesale transfer from substrate sources.

Full textAbstract:
Most research into contemporary French West Indian literature focuses on writing that stresses the significance of the plantation and urban cultures of the islands in the early to mid-twentieth century or, more recently, on the desire of some writers to explore broader trans-national influences or environments. Despite the prominence of migration in post-war French West Indian history, however, less has been said about the engagement of French West Indian literature with migration to metropolitan France. Although commentators have recently begun to discuss the work of a handful of writers in connection with migration to the métropole, this thesis offers a full-length analysis of the issue, bringing writers, texts and literary and cultural theories together with the cultural and sociological context of migration to metropolitan France. I comment on a variety of well-known authors and texts, while also presenting writers and writing that have frequently been neglected in other studies. I also consider the reasons for what I believe to be both the slow development of a literature of migration, as well as the low profile of this issue within Francophone literary studies. Part One, ‘French and West Indian: Historical and Sociological Contexts’, considers the broad context of migration, reflecting on how that context impacts on the West Indians and their descendants in the métropole. Part Two, ‘Theory and the French West Indian Diaspora’, looks at colonisation, postcolonial criticism, and the current scholarship devoted to them, as these concern the issues of migration and identity in sociological and literary terms. Part Three, ‘Patterns of Discourse: Reflections of the Métropole’, takes recurrent themes that have appeared in the works of a variety of less well-known writers, including writers of West Indian origin born in the métropole. In Part Four, ‘Siting the Métropole’, I examine three successful yet very different writers and consider their contributions to the literature of migration, in the light of the reflections made and the patterns uncovered earlier in this thesis. My conclusion unites the themes of inclusion and exclusion that this subject brings to the fore, and suggests potential literary and scholarly developments for the future.

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse interroge les origines, les interférences et la production de la littérature comorienne d’expression française. Au confluent entre critique littéraire, historiographie anthropologique des sources et analyse des thématiques dans la création, elle questionne aussi la notion de réception dans un contexte éditorial minimaliste et où langue d’écriture et langue vernaculaire s’interfèrent. En près de 30 ans, les quelques 160 ouvrages publiés de 1985 à nos jours, laissent percer des débuts lents et difficiles. Une réalité qui sera contredite à la fin des années 90 où des maisons d’éditions, même éphémères, naissent avec pour mot d’ordre, promouvoir la littérature comorienne. Va alors s’amorcer une dynamique nouvelle inscrite par le nombre et la variété des genres édités, la multiplicité des thématiques abordées et par l’orientation des revendications littéraires d’ordre esthétique en écho à des revendications identitaires. Parallèlement, transparaît une forme de tâtonnement textuel qui laisse apparaître une dualité narrative sous-tendue dans l’organisation fictionnelle et narratologique des œuvres et mettant en place un type de personnage-pensée à l’origine d’une hybridité textuelle. Par conséquent, cette thèse procède à une forme de bilan de ces trente années d’écriture suivant deux axes d’analyse. Un axe chronologique qui fait coïncider des éléments liés à l’histoire du peuplement avec l’établissement d’une écriture pour les îles afin d’appréhender le contexte originel de production ; un axe analytique et herméneutique recoupant faits historiques et sociaux en rapport avec les objets ou motifs de production et révélant la source des interrogations des écrivains comoriens francophonesThis thesis questions the origins, interferences and the production of French-speaking Comorian literature. At the junction of literary criticism, anthropologic historiography of the source documents and thematic analysis within the creation, it also investigates the notion of reception in a minimalist editorial context where the written and the vernacular languages interfere with each other. For the past 30 years, the 160 publications that have been published, since 1985 to date, have shown slow and difficult beginnings. A trend that would be reversed from the late 1990s, where many publishing houses have emerged, even if it was quite briefly for some of them, with a shared goal: to promote Comorian literature. A new trend will then begin as proven by the number and variety of genres being published, the diversity of the themes discussed, and the direction of the literary assertions of an aesthetic angle in response to identity assertions. At the same time, a form of textual hesitation transpired, shedding a light on a narrative duality, from a narratologic and fictional organisation of the publications, highlighting a type of character-thought creating a form of literal hybridity. Therefore, As a consequence, this thesis proceeds a kind of statement from thirty years of writing according to two axis of analysis. A chronological axis matches elements which are linked to the peopling History with the establishment of a writing for the islands in order to grasp the original context of production; an analytic and hermeneutic axis matching historical and social facts related to subjects or sources of production and revealing the sources of French-speaking Comorian writers’ questionings

Full textAbstract:
This project focuses on the travel literature produced through the Indian Ocean world of the dhow trade. It examines the medieval story of "Sindbad the Sailor and Sindbad the Porter" alongside the 20th century travel narrative Sons of Sindbad (1940) written by mariner and author Alan Villiers. Both texts engage with the ocean and the ways in which immersion in the watery world result in an uneasy sense of hybridization. In "Sindbad", the sailor's world is represented as a place of deep encounter that renders him indelibly changed and so sets up a paradox between home and away. His voyages and adventures, while often explored purely in terms of their fantastic value, depict an Indian Ocean world that is densely connected through trade and travel. Alan Villiers' narrative uses "Sindbad" as a trope and signifier for this world and through him seeks to rekindle the romance of the free sea and pure-sail that is encroached upon by maritime modernity. Villiers constructs himself as a citizen of the sea and so straddles an uneasy line between the Arab sailors and his own colonial affiliations. It is a position that means he is constantly narrating from a perspective that is simultaneously inside and out. This minor dissertation will look at the way in which travel narratives located in the Indian Ocean render the subjects foreign to themselves and how the sense of identity flux engendered through the tales shed light on and open new paths for enquiry, what I have called archipelagic thinking, focusing not on constructed borders but connectivity across time and between disparate locations.

DigitalCommons@Robert W. Woodruff Library, Atlanta University Center, 1993. http://digitalcommons.auctr.edu/dissertations/511.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis considers the influence of three West Indian writers who contributed to the development of Negritude as a literary, social and political phenomenon. The author shows that the racial awareness central to the Negritude movement was strongly affected by the experiences in Haiti and Martinique in particular. The thesis is comprised of three chapters and a conclusion. The first examines the awakening of racial consciousness in Paris in the 1930s and ‘40s, placing those developments in literary and historical perspective. This chapter also serves as an introduction to the milieu of West Indian and black American writers who were aggressively active in deriving a literary response to racial oppression. The second and third chapters analyze the roles of individual writers. The second chapter probes the writings of Jacques Roumain. He made an impression with his Marxist analysis of the Haitian situation, pushed for an “indigenous” Haitian literature, and developed the peasant novel. By using excerpts from essays, poems, and his novel, Gouverneurs de la Rosee, the writer details the influence of this Haitian author on Negritude writers. The third chapter considers two lesser—studied writers, the Martinicans Etienne Lero and Gilbert Gratiant. Gratiant embraced the mixed cultural heritage of Martinique, while Lero fought for an African outlook in initiating Legitime Defense, and through other contributions. An exploration of a small sampling of their work will help to clarify the context of color and caste in Martinique. The conclusion summarizes the authors’ social critique of French civilization and shows that the experiences of the West Indian authors discussed in the thesis influenced the principal leaders of Negritude--Leopold Sedar Senghor, Leon Damas and Aime Cesaire--and that this can be seen in the conceptions the Negritude movement embraced.

Full textAbstract:
Tracked and inscribed across the centuries by traders, pilgrims and imperial competitors, the Indian Ocean is written into literature in English by Joseph Conrad, and later by selected novelists from the region. As this thesis suggests, the Indian Ocean is imagined as a space of littoral interconnections, nomadic cosmopolitanisms, ancient networks of trade and contemporary networks of cooperation and crime. This thesis considers selected fiction written in English from or about the Indian Ocean—from the particular culture around its shores, and about the interconnections among its port cities. It focuses on Conrad, alongside Amitav Ghosh, Abdulrazak Gurnah and Lindsey Collen, whose work in many ways captures the geographical scope of the Indian Ocean: India, East Africa and a mid-point, Mauritius. Conrad’s work is examined as a foundational text for writing of the space, while the later writers, in turn, proleptically suggest a rereading of Conrad’s oeuvre through an oceanic lens. Alongside their diverse interests and emphases, the authors considered in this thesis write the Indian Ocean as a space in and through which to represent and interrogate historical gaps, the ethics and aesthetics of heterogeneity, and alternative geographies. The Indian Ocean allows the authors to write with empire at a distance, to subvert Eurocentric narratives and to explore the space as paradigmatic of widely connected human relations. In turn, they provide a longer imaginative history and an alternative cognitive map to imposed imperial and national boundaries. The fiction in this way brings the Indian Ocean into being, not only its borders and networks, but also its vivid, sensuous, storied world. The authors considered invoke and evoke the Indian Ocean as a representational space—producing imaginative depth that feeds into and shapes wider cultural, including historical, figurations.

Full textAbstract:
Le roman de Mohamed Toihiri : roman fondateur et représentatif de la littérature comorienne. Son étude nous conduit à affirmer que c’est un roman d’analyse sociologique dans la mesure où il constitue un excellent document sur la vie quotidienne des Comoriens durant près de deux décennies (1975-1992). Mais il serait fort réducteur de le limiter à cela car ce roman ne se contente pas de présenter finement le fonctionnement de la société comorienne, il véhicule aussi une critique socio-politique radicale de celle-ci et de ses gouvernants. Ce roman inscrit son lecteur, de façon très subtile, dans son fonctionnement interne. Ce qui amène le commentateur à étudier cette inscription du lectorat ainsi que la réception de ce même roman qui démontre que si le premier roman de Mohamed Toihiri a été accueilli très froidement du fait de son engagement politique, le deuxième, beaucoup plus conciliant sur le plan politique, a bénéficié d’une réception favorable, voire même élogieuseMohamed Toihiri's novel : a founding and representative novel of the Comorian literature. The analysis confoirms it is a sociological novel to the extent that it is a great novel dealing with the Comorians 'daily life for two centuries (1975-1992). But it would be specific to stop there because this novel not only cleverly shows how the Comorian society works, it is also a radical criticism of this socio-political society and of its government. This novel sbtly includes the reader in its internal functioning. Thus the commentator studied this readers inclusion as well as the novel's reception : while his first novel was given a cold welcom due to its political commitment, his second novel, politically softer, received a positive welcome not to say laudatory

In Maritime Mobilities in Anglophone Literature and Culture, 235–47. Cham: Springer International Publishing, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-91275-8_12.
Full textAbstract:
AbstractAmitav Ghosh’s fictional oeuvre makes a major contribution to contemporary sea fiction, particularly that written from a non-Eurocentric perspective. His Ibis trilogy, for instance, paints a vivid picture of historical oceanic mobility in the form of ship journeys and littoral interconnections, centered on and in the Indian Ocean world. This chapter explores one aspect of that mobility, a language “spoken only on the water,” a roving dialect that Ghosh both painstakingly and playfully recreates in the first novel of the trilogy, Sea of Poppies. Laskari is a dialect that was spoken among lascar sailors born of, and borne on, the Indian Ocean. This essay examines the ways in which two dominant areas of Ghosh’s experimentation and interest—language and the sea—intersect in Sea of Poppies, through a focus on laskari as a lingua franca of work. It argues that the intersection can be approached in three ways: through the lens of Ghosh’s production of Indian Ocean space, as a language of South-South mobility; through the lens of sailor speech as a vernacular associated particularly with the craft of sail, participating in a tradition of sea fiction that harks back to Conrad and Melville; and, briefly, through the lens of postcolonial ecology, as a language that has been lost and only partially recovered.

AbstractThe cold Benguela Current passing along Angola’s Atlantic Ocean coast accounts for its mangrove communities lying 20° latitude north of those of the Indian Ocean Coast of Africa, bathed by the warm Mozambique Current. This chapter draws on the limited literature available on Angola’s mangrove forests and seagrass meadows that constitute its Mangrove Biome. Comprising only five of the world’s 55 mangrove species, and two of the world’s 70 species of seagrasses, Angola’s mangrove communities cover a very limited area compared with other tropical countries. This is due to Angola’s steeply shelving coastline, with small lagoons and mudflats at the mouths of its rivers. However, they provide excellent opportunities for the study of the complex adaptations of plants to regular changes in water salinity and to growth in waterlogged, anoxic soil. The adaptations include stilt roots, with specialised absorptive pores, roots containing porous aerenchyma tissue for oxygen transfer, and reproductive propagules that develop into seedlings while still attached to the tree. The mudflats of coastal lagoons support two species of seagrass (highly specialised angiosperms that are permanently submerged). Seagrass meadows provide habitat for a wide diversity of marine animals, while mangrove forests shelter several crocodile and primate species.

ZusammenfassungA satirically intended fake report about the alleged discovery of an unknown island in the Indian Ocean, published in London in two parts, leads to a flood of translations throughout Europe within a few weeks in 1688. In the process, the first part of the fantasy tale is translated into numerous other languages and used as an actual account of the discovery, as a scandalous polygamy experiment and finally even as the model for the island episode at the end of Grimmelshausen’s Simplicissimus novel. The latter appears to be a counterfactual of the original text for moral and confessional reasons. Overall, the history of translation demonstrates the central role of Dutch as a language of mediation for English texts into German and French and beyond. For French, a divergent reception can be reconstructed depending on the political and confessional conditions. The reception in Germany was mainly in the trading cities of Hamburg and Frankfurt. In the meantime, Georg Greflinger has been identified as the decisive translator and mediator. As an early newspaper publisher, his main focus was on the curieuse interest in entertainment. The history of translation nevertheless proves to be a comprehensive misreception, which became a condition for the enormous journalistic success. This article breaks down the multiple thematic spectrum of the original narrative and its diverse further use, compares significant text variants and is able to add a number of new findings to the known printing and translation history with regard to the originals used, unknown printings and concrete reception paths.

AbstractThis paper describes a comprehensive online database of giant landslides on volcanic islands compiled by researchers from the Institute of Rock Structure and Mechanics, Czech Academy of Sciences, in the framework of IPL Project 212. The database was constructed from 2016 to 2018. It comprises a total of seventy-five events from the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea, sixty-seven events from the Pacific Ocean, and forty events from the Indian Ocean. In this paper some of the main benefits of landslide inventories and thematic databases are outlined and the global distribution of giant landslides on volcanic islands is described in depth. The database is hosted on the website of the Institute of Rock Structure & Mechanics and records can be downloaded as a spreadsheet or kml file for integration in a number of geospatial programs including ArcGIS and Google Earth. However, since completion of the database in 2018, a number of potentially significant studies of giant landslides on volcanic islands have been published from archipelagos in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans while outstanding modern analogues for past events are represented by the collapse of Anak Krakatau on 22 December 2018 and the collapse of Hunga Tonga-Hunga Haʻapai on 15 January 2022. Consequently, the recent literature will be scrutinized with the aim of updating information already contained in the database while two new layers are planned: the first of these will provide information about recent volcanic collapses and the second will provide information about the long-term instrumental monitoring of giant landslides. It is intended that the second release of the database will be available online in early 2023.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract The purpose of this chapter is a modest one. It aims first at clarifying some of the notions and the terminology used in the literature on Predicate Clefting (henceforth PC), and, secondly, at an application of the now sharpened notion of PC to the much debated question of whether the French-based Indian Ocean Creoles, in particular Mauritian Creole, Seselwa (Seychelles Creole), and the Creole of Rodrigues, do or do not have PC. The answer is that they apparently had one or two highly restricted (and now obsolete) constructions that are reminiscent of PC. This evidence is on a par with the extremely tenuous case for serial verb constructions in the same languages, and points to what may have been a very weak West African (Kwa) substrate influence due to the fact that around the middle of the eighteenth century Kwa speakers formed just over 10 per cent of the total slave population.

The Huguenots’ turn to new worlds came directly out of their colonial program. French Protestants had long experience with global travel and exploration, and once persecution hit some of them naturally believed they could find refuge overseas. This process began even in the 1660s, when authors like Charles de Rochefort and Henri Duquesne promoted the Caribbean and the Indian Ocean, respectively, as promised lands for Huguenots, drawing from utopian ideals. Once the Revocation closed off the French New World, Huguenots gravitated toward the English and Dutch empires, drawn from the 1680s onward by a robust promotional literature lauding societies as diverse as Tobago, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina. By the 1680s increasing numbers of Huguenots were beginning to set out to these new colonies, lured by dreams of Eden but thrown into a world of empires.

Full textAbstract:
The blue economy concept gained significant momentum in Rio +20, where nations undertook the promise to embark on sustainable blue growth. The overexploitation of ocean resources has brought in a sustainable development crisis, and in response to tackling its challenges has emerged the concept of the Blue Economy, which encompasses the two competing discourses - exploiting the marine resources and ocean sustainability. Blue economy, therefore, offers a fresh approach to conserving the oceans while extracting its benefits equitably and sustainably. In an age where the emphasis is on the green economy, the blue economy tries to bolster it rather than replace it. Sri Lanka, due to its geographical location in the Indian Ocean, is blessed with maritime areas seven times larger than the land area, and it provides one of the frontiers for economic development. Fishing, sea transportation, tourism, seabed mining and minerals are the activities that have immense potential in providing sustainable livelihood. Findings of the existing literature on this topic show that they are not comprehensive nor give sufficient attention to the legislative framework of Sri Lanka in harnessing the emerging concept so as to attain sustainable development. Hence, there is a gap in the existing literature as no study has discussed the legislative and policy framework and the challenges in giving effect to the blue economy. Research Problem includes despite the fact that there are catena of environmental legislation enacted in the idea of protecting and preserving the nature and its riches to which extent the legislations could be utilized to promote the blue economy concept? The purpose of this research paper is to examine the existing legal framework that bolsters the emerging concept of the blue economy and the challenges in protecting the marine ecosystem in the Sri Lankan context. This paper, employing a doctrinal legal research methodology, examines the importance of the blue economy concept to the island as a whole and the legislative initiatives that have been taken by the government to honour the concept of the blue economy while preserving and protecting the marine ecology. To this end, the paper analyses the relevant national legislations and the International Conventions which constitute as primary sources and to a lesser extent the scholarly articles on the concept as secondary sources. The paper concludes that the existing domestic legal framework could be utilized successfully to implement the concept and highlights the fact that the decision-makers and the judiciary should be willing and committed to recognizing the concept and, at the same, time prioritizing the conservation of the marine ecosystem.

Full textAbstract:
We report and analyze extreme wave-induced set-up heights obtained during a large international field experiment on the Atlantic coast of France. The field experiment associated with a large storm with the maximum offshore wave height of more than 12 m, enabled us to record extreme set-up heights up to 2 m. Such extreme data which are necessary for developing further numerical and analytical studies in this field, were lacking in the literature. Our data agrees reasonably well with existing set-up data reported from other coasts in the world. A good correlation was observed between set-up and offshore wave height. Similar to other coasts, the setup-offshore wave height relationship was linear up to a value of about 1 m. Nonlinear behaviour was observed for higher setup values. This study will help to further improve and validate the existing analytical and numerical solutions.

EDF is responsible for the production and distribution of electricity on the French islands in Europe and overseas, such as: - Corsica (in the Mediterranean), - Martinique (in the Caribbean), - Guadeloupe (in the Caribbean), - Reunion (in the Indian Ocean), - and French Guiana in South America. Technical and economic studies revealed the viability in these regions of single cycle gas turbine technology for supplying peak demand requirements, or providing transitory means of production pending the installation of heavier production units (conventional thermal power plants, diesel generators or hydropower). After consultations with the major European manufacturers, a list of machines with the capacity to meet the generation specifications, and their characteristics, was prepared. On mainland France EDF had equipped its production units with 24 MW Alsthom MS 5000 and MS 5001 gas turbines. These were little used and studies showed the economic viability of transferring these units to island regions. The program finally adopted was to install the following power generation facilities: JARRY SUD (GUADELOUPE): 2 ALSTHOM MS 5001 – 20 MW – 40 MW KOUROU (FRENCH GUIANA): 2 COOPER ROLLS – 13 MW – 26 MW; 1 ROLLS ROYCE – 11 MW – 11 MW LUCCIANA (CORSICA): 2 ALSTHOM MS 5000 – 24 MW – 48 MW LE PORT (REUNION): 2 ALSTHOM MS 5001 – 20 MW – 40 MW POINTE DES CARRIERES (MARTINIQUE): 2 ALSTHOM MS 5001 – 20 MW – 40 MW or total rated power of: 205 MW The technical details, costs and scheduling of these works are described in the paper. Finally, the authors describe the future development prospects for gas turbines in these regions, and especially certain combined cycle projects for Corsica coupled with a proposed Italy-Corsica-Sardinia natural gas link.

In ASME 2012 31st International Conference on Ocean, Offshore and Arctic Engineering. American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2012. http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/omae2012-83378.
Full textAbstract:
Explicit understanding of the residual stress field of primary submarine pressure hull induced during fabrication will improve the fidelity of numerical analysis and experimentation. Hence, supporting operational envelope and design life extension initiatives. The fatigue lifetime of a submarine hull depends on the loads generated by hull contraction under the effect of hydrostatic pressure and the residual stresses existing in the absence of external loading. The use of numerical simulation allows a straightforward calculation of the stresses induced by the hydrostatic pressure. The effect of residual stress could be determined using the current failure assessment procedures, like BS7910 and R6. However it is more intricate to determine the residual stresses resulting from the sheet bending process combined with the sheet assembly using a multipass welding process. There are several measurement techniques available to measure residual stresses. They are often classified by their level of destructiveness and their penetration.In order to compare the different measurement techniques an elastic-plastic bent beam sample has been chosen as it is very comparable to the residual stress field induced during the sheet bending process used in the submarine structure. Four bent beams have been measured using five different techniques: Incremental centre hole drilling, ring core, neutron diffraction, slitting and deep hole drilling technique. The results from measurement techniques show an excellent agreement when compared with the FEA. In order to measure a full scale Rubis class submarine hull a limited number of techniques can be used, as the technique needs to be portable. The Deep Hole Drilling (DHD) technique was chosen because the neutron diffraction would require extracting a small test sample of about 400mm × 400mm, hence redistributing the residual stresses that were intended to be measured. Six measurements were carried out at different angular positions to detect variability in manufacture on a Rubis class submarine and a probabilistic calculation was done using all six DHD measurements. The Rubis class measurement results are also compared with two other submarine types, found in the literature. Understanding the three-dimensional behaviour of residual stress in this type of structure provides a valuable resource to the numerical modelling community. The results can also support fatigue and fracture experimental work and may help increasing the operating life of 28 year old French nuclear submarine.

Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACT In total, some 60 wells have been drilled onshore and less than 10 offshore Somalia*, none of which in deep water. Several prospective basins remain undrilled, such as the offshore Jubba and Mid Somali High basins and the onshore Odewayne basin. In view of the gas discoveries offshore Mozambique and Tanzania, and also of encouraging results offshore Kenya (sub-commercial oil discovery Sunbird-1) and in Madagascar, the Somalian offshore and onshore basins were re-evaluated. As to the Somali onshore basins, the extension of the Yemeni Jurassic and Cretaceous rifts into Somalia highlights their prospectivity. Seeps abound (Odewayne and Nogal basins) and some wells encountered good shows. Late Jurassic and Upper Cretaceous marine shales are source rock candidates. Gas in the area of Mogadishu may be associated with the Early Triassic Bokh Fm. source rock. Seeps in western Somalia are rare, and may result either from long-distance migration out of the Calub Graben or from locally mature Lower Cretaceous or Upper Jurassic. We establish an inventory of proven and possible source rock occurences in Somalia by integrating publicly available data on slicks and seeps, geological and gravity maps, literature data, well data and geological information from adjoining basins. Our data indicate that in the Somali part of the Gulf of Aden, high heat-flow may critically affect the Late Jurassic source rock. However, Late Cretaceous or even Eocene sources may be locally oil-mature. The presence of source rocks on the Somali Indian Ocean margin remains presently speculative. Abundance of slicks in the area south of Mogadishu may not relate to hydrocarbons. Of more interest are reported isolated slicks further to the north, in deeper waters of the Mogadishu and Mid-Somalia High Basins. These slicks may be related to Lower/Mid-Jurassic, Late Jurassic, Late Cretaceous or Eocene sources. Analysis of onshore seeps in northern Somalia (Nogal, Daroor, Odewayne basins), integrated with seismic data, will allow to determine the origin of these oils and an assessment of the size of prospective kitchen areas. In the offshore, 3D-Basin-modelling will be required to determine which areas are prospective for gas or, especially, for oil.

Full textAbstract:
This review looks at the extent to which LGBT rights are provided for under law in a range of Small Island Developing States (SIDS), and the record on implementation/enforcement, as well as approaches to promote LGBT rights and inclusion. SIDS covered are those in the Caribbean, Pacific, and Atlantic-Indian Ocean-South China Sea (AIS) regions. The review draws on a mixture of grey literature (largely from international development agencies/NGOs), academic literature, and media reports. While the information on the legal situation of LGBT people in SIDS was readily available, there was far less evidence on approaches/programmes to promote LGBT rights/inclusion in these countries. However, the review did find a number of reports with recommendations for international development cooperation generally on LGBT issues. Denial of LGBT rights and discrimination against LGBT people is found to varying extents in all parts of the world. It is important that LGBT people have protection in law, in particular the right to have same-sex sexual relations; protection from discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation; and the right to gender identity/expression. Such rights are also provided for under international human rights conventions such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, while the Sustainable Development Goals are based on the principle of ‘leave no one behind'.
