IDENTITY
IN
THE
ATLANTIC
WORLD
The
very
absence
of
discussion
of
major
issues
like
these
is
an
indication
of
the
pioneering
quality
of
these
essays.
All
too
often
where
they
fall
silent
it
is
because
the
research
has
never
been
done.
But
they
perform
the
great
service
of
bringing
on
to
center
stage
the
fascinating
question
of
self-image
in
the
infinitely
complicated
history
of
the
triangular
relationship
of
mother
country,
colonists,
and
subject
populations
during
the
age
of
Atlan-
tic
colonization
and
settlement.
In
this
period,
"holding
on"
and
"breaking
away"
were
for
a
long
time
half-options
in
which
profit
and
loss,
hope
and
disillusionment,
interest
and
risk
endlessly
counterbalanced
each
other
in
uneasy
equilibrium.
In
some
of
these
societies
there
were
conspiracies
and
rebellions—however
unsuccessful—against
the
dominance
of
the
mother
country.
In
others
there
were
not.
"Breaking
away"
had
first
to
be
thought
before
it
could
happen,
and
the
unthinkable
would
not
have
become
think-
able
without
a
prior
process
of
self-definition.
It
is
this
process
of
self-defi-
nition,
sometimes
advancing,
sometimes
regressing,
but
never
static,
that
the
contributors
have
sought
to
analyze.
