| dbo:abstract |
Edmund Dummer (1651–1713) was an English naval engineer and shipbuilder who, as Surveyor of the Navy, designed and supervised the construction of the Royal Navy dockyard at (Devonport), Plymouth and designed the extension of that at Portsmouth. His survey of the south coast ports is a valuable and well-known historic document. He also served Arundel as Member of Parliament for approximately ten years and founded the first packet service between Falmouth, Cornwall and the West Indies. He died a bankrupt in the Fleet debtors' prison. In her account of Dummer, Celina Fox sums up his career thus: Using elements of mathematical calculation and meticulously honed standards of empirical observation, Dummer tried to introduce a more rational, planned approach to the task of building ships and dockyards, with the help of his extraordinary draughting skills. Operating on the margins of what was technically possible, meeting with opposition from vested interests and traditional work patterns, he struggled to succeed. Today he is little recognized outside the circle of naval historians and his grandest building projects were almost wholly destroyed by later dockyard developments or bombing. (en) Edmund Dummer (1651-1713) est considéré par les historiens comme le père de la modernisation de la construction navale et de la Marine britannique dans les années 1690, à une époque où il s'agit du principal secteur industriel, et le créateur du premier service de courrier transatlantique régulier. Edmund Dummer fut superviseur de la Royal Navy britannique entre 1692 et 1699, période au cours de laquelle la marine a été contrainte de s'agrandir, sur fond de guerres en Irlande et contre la France de Louis XIV, alors deux fois et demie plus peuplée, en particulier la Guerre de la Ligue d'Augsbourg. La construction navale fut alors développée et complètement rationalisée, en imposant aux constructeurs des formats standards, visés par le parlement, pour les bateaux et pour leurs composants, afin de les rendre interchangeables.
