and today they are archived in the British National Archives in London.\u00a0 <strong>Our VR project uses these documents to explore knowledge and knowledge transfer between non-elite people (sailors, skippers, ocean travelers) in an age of global trade and travel.<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6bee5e2 elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column\" data-id=\"6bee5e2\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap  elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-12c86a2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"12c86a2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img width=\"300\" height=\"242\" src=\"https:\/\/prizepapers.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/26_Kapare_Sj\u00f6hist1793-smaller-300x242-e1568299064152.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Sj\u00f6historiska museet, Stockholm<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-337eb36f elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default elementor-section elementor-top-section\" data-id=\"337eb36f\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-63f15306 elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column\" data-id=\"63f15306\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap  elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5103496d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5103496d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\"><h5 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Playfair Display';\">Funded by a grant from<\/span><span style=\"font-family: 'Playfair Display';\"> the Swedish Research Council\/Vetenskapsr\u00e5det<\/span><\/h5><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prize-Taking This picture from 1793 shows a heavily-armed British privateer in the process of taking two Swedish vessels as prizes.&nbsp;&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":27,"parent":0,"menu_order":1,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"elementor_header_footer","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/prizepapers.se\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/223"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/prizepapers.se\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/prizepapers.se\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prizepapers.se\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prizepapers.se\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=223"}],"version-history":[{"count":48,"href":"https:\/\/prizepapers.se\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/223\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":398,"href":"https:\/\/prizepapers.se\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/223\/revisions\/398"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prizepapers.se\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/prizepapers.se\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=223"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
