description | The shipwreck accounts were written mainly by survivors of catastrophic shipwrecks on overseas
voyages to America and India, and therefore belong to the huge corpus of works written in the 16th
century about exploring and conquering new territories. Unlike the most of the written sources of
the period, these accounts do not celebrate the overseas enterprise, they bring a new, tragic perspective
and describe the dangers and misery of overseas voyages. The shipwreck accounts are often seen
as a specific genre and can be studied from the perspective of travel narrative as well as from the
perspective of autobiographical writing. There are many common motifs and elements in these accounts
such as the physical transformation of the castaway, the interpretation of the shipwreck as
a punishment, and the motive of time. |
