My final project proposal is about the Blue Humanites ocean thinking and history that involved the meaning of the ocean floor and what does it mean to people who perceived the ocean as a non living we don’t care about and in the article from Eric Paul Rooda and what he interprets how do we communicate with the ocean and how it impacts our own lives like in politics and history itself with meanings that humans don’t understand.
For my thesis statement in progress: In modern history the ocean isn’t recognized that much and how do humans interpreted as something to forget or use of a tool instead of thinking as one with the Earth core elements needed for others to survive and hustle humans have done so much damage that we tend to ignore Enviroment as if were nothing. This explores the idea of what it means to have an understanding of the Ocean as a place to be named and how should we the value in it.
I’d like to see you return to the readings about the Blue Humanities, from the beginning of the term through to our session a few weeks ago; go back and reread, and then frame an argument around the texts. You might also check your peers’ blogs on the topic because there was so much that was well written– including midterm essays on the blue humanities and even on Rooda. Check out the “tags” on our website, as that is what it is for! All of this will help you to determine what you want to say based upon the readings and help you so that you are trafficking in generalizations.
