As an introduction to Shakespeare, we're doing a project on medieval guilds. Can anybody help me on where to search information on the Seadogs guild? I've been looking and all I've gotten was info on the movie, or a modern guild. Thank you :)
"1600-1800 States of western Europe were heavily influenced by a policy known as mercantilism, which is roughly defined as a set of priniciples and policies intended to maintain the wealth of a nation through economic regulation. Mercantilism thrived in the reign of Elizabeth I who controlled a powerful merchant fleet. The wealth of nations under mercantilism was based on bullionism or the belief that hard money in the form of precious metal, gold, or silver assured prestige, power and wealth. Since 1600 the influx of bullion from the Americas supported the theoretical framework upon which mercantilism depended. Bullionism intends import/export trade by which hard money is exchanged for goods and services."
