how are escape and education associated with one another?
I think he meant that escape is education. Certainly a person of education, during those times had the means to do something better than sail off on a ship. For the rest of the people, escape meant an adventure on the seas. The lessons learned were both practical and philosophical. It was an education that could not be bought.
