The name De Maribus was inspired in the title of the work by Paulus Merula (1558-1607), which was published in 1633 along with the rather more famous De Mari Libero of another Dutch scholar: Hugo Grotius (1583-1645). They are unfortunately not the editors of this blog. Those are:
Nelson F. Coelho (1987), who may be reached at nelson@demaribus.net
