Introduction

PATRICIA M. E. LORCIN AND TODD SHEPARD

The Mediterranean is associated with many images: the seat of Western civilization, the domain of the crusaders, a site of Islamic learning and culture, the playground of corsairs and slavers, a locus of exoticism and sexual fantasy, a space of exchanges, migrations, and invented or reinvented identities, andof relevance to this volumean imperial sea. Recent scholarship on the early modern history of the Mediterranean proposes that the concept of this sea as a unified space is essentially a Western one, devised by the imperial powers that patrolled its seas and controlled its ports.1 The peoples of its southern shores (in particular in the Islamic states), such work suggests, did not share this conception of the sea: rather, for them the Mediterranean was polymorphous, shifting with the economic and seafaring exigencies of the moment. By the nineteenth century, however, the idea that the Mediterranean was a unified space had either been absorbed by, or imposed on, the populations living along its southern shores. This volume reveals the significant French element in the nineteenth- and twentieth-century making of this singular Mediterranean. Mediterranean perspectives, in turn, reposition current arguments that modern French history must be understood as transnational and imperial. To these ends, French

Mediterraneans offers a critical study of space and movement anchored in distinct methodological lenses and interdisciplinary approaches.

Since the early 1990s, efforts to treat metropole and colony in a single analytic field have been crucial to the most important works in Anglophone scholarship on modern France.2 More recently, transnational scholarship has turned to other frames besides empire as well as non-colonial networks to explore French histories. We have learned much about how French people and French states were shaped in other contexts, and by non-French people. This volume aims to open perspectives that shed light on what has been obscured by blind spots apparent in such work. We seek to do so while maintaining the crucial insights they offer into the circulation and play of power (notably, its racialized and imperial forms). We also remain committed to the need that such approaches highlight to think beyond the limits of national histories and across or outside national boundaries, compartmentalized cultures, and the presumed preeminence of state actors. Scholars trained in French history, including the editors, have benefited enormously from the colonial and transnational turns.
