DESCRIPTION:PASSAGE (Partnership for Atlantic Slavery\, Scholarship\, Arch
 iving\, and Global Exchange) is a research project led by The National Arc
 hives and funded by the Lloyd’s Register Foundation. The project brings 
 together historical research into collections held at The National Archive
 s and Lloyd’s Register with an international research mobility programme
  designed to centre the work of scholars and archivists in West Africa and
  the Caribbean. The project’s archival strand seeks to recover and foreg
 round the human dimensions of the Middle Passage by interrogating underexp
 lored record series at The National Archives. Its international component 
 aims to provide financial support for research into the history of slavery
  being undertaken in regions affected by the continued legacies of the tra
 fficking of enslaved Africans to the Caribbean.\n\nThis paper offers an ov
 erview of the PASSAGE project - its archival ambitions and international o
 bjectives - before turning to a close examination of newly identified reco
 rds of enslaved resistance within The National Archives.  By charting the 
 trajectory of one specific ship\, the Matty\, this paper interrogates the 
 limits of the archive\, questioning what aspects of enslavement can - and 
 cannot - be recovered through documentary sources alone.
