Im Mittelpunkt stehen mikrohistorische Lebensgeschichten fr\u00fchneuzeitlicher Segelschiffe. Schiffe waren nicht nur das zentrale Mittel zur Umsetzung kolonialer Projekte, sondern zugleich hochkomplexe Maschinen, deren Bau und Instandhaltung auf gro\u00dfe und oftmals weitreichende \u00d6kosysteme angewiesen waren. Mithilfe der <em>Prize Papers<\/em>-Archive und damit verkn\u00fcpfter Sammlungen m\u00f6chte sie die Lebenswege ausgew\u00e4hlter Schiffe und ihrer vielf\u00e4ltigen \u00f6kologischen Beziehungen \u2013 von W\u00e4ldern und Feldern \u00fcber Algen und die marine Tierwelt der Luft- und Meeresr\u00e4ume bis hin zu H\u00e4fen und Hafenarbeitern \u2013 \u00fcber ihre gesamte Einsatzzeit hinweg nachzeichnen. So untersucht sie, wie ein einzelnes Schiff als Teil von Prozessen der Entwaldung, \u00f6kologischen Sch\u00e4digung und \u00f6kologischer Verflechtungen verstanden werden kann. Dar\u00fcber hinaus interessiert sie sich f\u00fcr die Entwicklung von Methoden, um mikrobielles Leben in Archiven jenseits von Krankheitsgeschichten zu erforschen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Neben ihrer Arbeit in <em>Governing the Invisible<\/em> und mit den <em>Prize Papers<\/em> liegen Brookes weitere Forschungsschwerpunkte in der Umweltgeschichte von Religion und religi\u00f6ser Praxis, den Beziehungen und Begegnungen zwischen verschiedenen Arten (Multispezies-Beziehungen), der Geschichte von Schiffen und Schifffahrt sowie den Prozessen von Verrottung und Zerfall \u2013 stets mit Bezug zum Ozean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ausgew\u00e4hlte Publikationen<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/brill.com\/view\/journals\/wo\/30\/1\/article-p83_5.xml\">Fluid Faith and Oceanic Interaction in the Nineteenth Century<\/a>,\u201d <em>Worldviews, <\/em>vol. 30, no. 1 (2026)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSeabirds, Seafarers, and Navigation Beyond Charts,\u201d in <em>Routledge Handbook of Critical Ocean Studies, <\/em>Routledge (Paul Foley and Jennifer Silver, eds., 2025)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.59391\/6c45h990\">Remembering Past Distance: Whaling and Whalers<\/a>,\u201d <em>Inscriptions <\/em>vol. 8, no. 1: Navigating the Critical Zone (2025)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":18745,"template":"","team":[],"research-area":[],"status-group":[],"alphabet":[],"class_list":["post-18744","people","type-people","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Brooke Grasberger - HIFMB Oldenburg<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/hifmb.de\/de\/personen\/brooke-grasberger\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"de_DE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Brooke Grasberger - HIFMB Oldenburg\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Vita  2026 \u2013 heute  Postdoktorandin, Governing the Invisible  2025  International Research Fellow, Deutsches Schifffahrtsmuseum  2024  Gastprofessorin (Visiting Assistant Professor), Sea Education Association  2023 &#8211; 2024   Gastprofessorin (Visiting Assistant Professor), Boston College  2016 &#8211; 2023  Promotion (Ph.D.) in Geschichte und Master (M.A.) in Religionswissenschaft, Brown University    Forschungsschwerpunkte  Im Rahmen der Booster-Gruppe \u201eGoverning the Invisible\u201c erforscht Brooke die \u00f6kologischen Geschichten des Kolonialismus im Zusammenhang mit dem Kohlenstoffkreislauf.
