Synopsis "The Freedom of the Seas"
The Freedom of the Seas (originally titled in Latin: Mare Liberum) is a book in Latin on international law written by the Dutch jurist and philosopher Hugo Grotius, first published in 1609. In The Free Sea, Grotius formulated the new principle that the sea was international territory and all nations were free to use it for seafaring trade. The disputation was directed towards the Portuguese Mare clausum policy and their claim of monopoly on the East Indian Trade. Grotius wrote the treatise while being a counsel to the Dutch East India Company over the seizing of the Santa Catarina Portuguese carrack issue.This edition contains both Latin and English versions, as translated by Ralph Van Deman Magoffin.
