AREA 1: THE CULTURE OF SEAFARERS
1. The fishing village: Life in the fishing villages on the edge of the Arctic and the Basque coast: jobs, legends, seasonality, the role of women in fisheries activities, as the main artery of economic activity. The long working periods alternate with long periods of enforced idleness, as determined by the maintenance of the boats and preparing to get back out. This means households strongly oriented by women, who also work in the fishing industry in the town. Familiar with the outside world, other cultures, their worldview is different from that of the farmer or industrial worker. The young generations of fishing villages receive as an inheritance a way of living, a way of thinking about relationships with others.
