Dead Men Tell No Tales: Pirate Literature Through the Ages

Catalog description

This course introduces students to literary study through an examination of the development of pirate literature from 1600 to the present. We will explore how pirates in literature went from being figures that were critiqued and censured (if also begrudgingly admired) to becoming the romanticized, heroic figures that currently pervade our cultural imagination.
