The introduction of the Atlantic Slave Trade in the latter part of the fifteenth century forged the beginning interface between Europeans and Africans. In result a slave based enterprise gained worldwide acclaim. As different countries vied for monopolistic control of this expanding venture, enslaved Africans made up the centerpiece of the then emerging Atlantic economy. This project calls attention to the infamous 'Middle Passage' which effectively brought together diverse populations of people---captains, surgeons, seamen, and enslaved Africans. It conducts a socio-cultural investigation of the slave ship experience common between Europeans and their African captives.

520 $a The introduction of the Atlantic Slave Trade in the latter part of the fifteenth century forged the beginning interface between Europeans and Africans. In result a slave based enterprise gained worldwide acclaim. As different countries vied for monopolistic control of this expanding venture, enslaved Africans made up the centerpiece of the then emerging Atlantic economy. This project calls attention to the infamous 'Middle Passage' which effectively brought together diverse populations of people---captains, surgeons, seamen, and enslaved Africans. It conducts a socio-cultural investigation of the slave ship experience common between Europeans and their African captives.
520 $a Make Haste builds on the idea that the Middle Passage began at the point of procurement and ended at the point of sale within slave societies of the New World. Slave ships operated as mobile micro-cultural and micro-political systems crossing the Atlantic. However, encased within these transportable societies of Atlantic vessels are the innumerable experiences of enslaved men, women, and children; which this study utilizes as a trajectory to highlight factors of gender and age to put forth a much needed conversation regarding female captives as well as those deemed elderly/"old" by their captors. Drawing upon a variety of sources to uncover this dynamic history, this dissertation complicates the traditional perspective of the Middle Passage experience by posing new questions in order to highlight the diverse human testimonies of bondage. As such, it contributes to the growing body of Middle Passage studies by examining critical factors of gender, violence, self-sabotage, motherhood, illness, psychological trauma and death.
520 $a A variety of important themes arose within the trade. Foremost, recognizing the widespread decline of captive's physical health, this project considers the influence of unsanitary conditions at sea, malnutrition, ship cleanliness, and inclement weather to provide another angle in analyzing the relationship of disease and mortality as well as physical disabilities widespread in the lives of bondpeople. Likewise, amidst their enforcement within the trade, many captives responded to their enslavement through a diversity of methods including: self-sabotage, poisoning, abortion, and ship revolts in order to defend their lives, in some cases to protect their young offspring, and ultimately to obtain freedom. Being a study of the African Diaspora, this dissertation argues that the exchanges carried out at sea established a microcosmic foundation of interaction between Africans and sailors that further magnified on land within New Word slave communities.
