ENGL 420AQ - The Golden Age of Piracy and its Contexts
The literary image of the pirate—including dress, speech, and demeanour—stems from a very specific historical period, namely, the years from 1715 to 1730, generally known as the final phase of the Golden Age of Piracy (roughly 1680 to 1730). During this period, the British government undertook to eradicate pirate activity in the Caribbean, installing Woodes Rogers as governor of The Bahamas, and charging him with waging a “war on piracy” that successfully drove piracy out of North America by 1726. This course will consider the literature about pirates that emerged during this period.
