Portada de Burkhardt Wolf: Sea Fortune (PDF)

Sea fortune has always been an issue of good faith and good navigation.

Under such auspices, while relying on risk technologies modern seafaring has never lost its adventurous dimension. Understanding their origin remains a challenge for the history of science and the history of literature.
