Abstract:
Abstract Piracy is both an ancient and a modern social ill. Yet in American popular culture pirates have emerged as dashing heroic figures and Robin Hoods of the Sea. Some examples of this transformation of the pirate image from criminal to popular hero are explored in British and American fiction, cinema and other forms of popular culture.

In this field note article, I discuss my in-progress historical novel about privateering in the 17th century to demonstrate how adult education feminist theories of situated learning have influenced my fiction-based research.

AbstractWhile captivity narratives have long been recognized as an important field of research in American Studies, the substantial body of autobiographical tales portraying captivity in the Muslim world published in England between the late sixteenth and early eighteenth century has only recently begun to attract the attention of literary scholars. Despite a number of important pioneering works, however, British captivity narratives have not only remained at the margins of early modern studies, but even where they have received attention they have mainly been treated as historical source mate

Abstract:
In the late sixteenth century, thriving private maritime trade brought forth maritime trouble to the late Ming state. In times of rampant “Japanese” piracy and Hideyoshi’s invasion of Korea, Chinese literati composed unofficial histories and vernacular fiction on China’s foreign relations. Among them, Yan Congjian 嚴從簡 wrote Shuyu zhouzi lu 殊域周咨錄 (Records of Surrounding Strange Realms) (1574), He Qiaoyuan 何喬遠 compiled Wang Xiangji 王享記 (Records of the Emperors’ Tributes) (1597–1620), Luo Yuejiong 羅曰褧 penned Xianbin lu 咸賓錄 (Records of Tributary Guests) (1597), and Luo Maodeng 羅懋登 composed a verna

Abstract:
The “condition of England” in the middle of the nineteenth century was, for most Victorians (and is, indeed, for most modern scholars of the Victorian period), about as far removed from desert pirates and neo-Grecian queens as London from Jerusalem. But such was not the case in 1847 for the ambitious novelist-turned-politician Benjamin Disraeli, himself a mixture of political and social incongruities, who chose to conclude his political trilogy with a novel that bore greater resemblance to an Arabian Nights fantasy than to any mid-Victorian reform fiction.

Abstract:
Chapter Three of The Misfortunes of Alonso Ramírez, attributed to the Novohispanic polymath Carlos de Sigüenza y Góngora but widely believed to be based on a true account, tells the tale of the title character’s captivity among English pirates, who supposedly torture him for the information they need to execute savage raids on Spanish positions in the Philippines, and then plunder their way from Cambodia to Madagascar and Brazil. Nicole Legnani situates the excerpt in the larger story told by the novel as a whole and discusses the novel’s place in the broader context of colonial Latin American literature and its transpacific commitments.

Abstract:
This chapter focuses on Xu Xu’s fiction from the 1930s and 40s, providing analyses of his main short stories and novels from this period, demonstrating how Xu’s work transitioned from modernist experimentation to popular romances after his return from studies in France. Xu’s bestselling short stories and novels were often set abroad and featured exotic, otherworldly characters, such as ghosts, spies, pirates and gypsies. In many of these works, the cosmopolitan, rational and educated male protagonist encounters a mysterious, elusive, otherworldly woman. Eventually, the truth is revealed and the mysteries are uncovered, vindicating the modern outlook of the male narrator. With their references to traditional literature, abnormal psychology and sexual desire, such works frequently echo Shi Zhecun and Mu Shiying’s writings from a decade earlier, yet Xu’s writings are mainly escapist entertainment rather than an attack on rational modernity or the status of art in society.

Abstract:
The second chapter explores the transition from missionary texts to a more secularized portrayal of the islands in adventure fiction. I begin with George Vason, an LMS missionary who “went native” and lived amongst the islanders, which serves as a transition between conversion narrative and adventure fiction. The emerging genre of “boy’s fiction” emphasized entertainment rather than moral edification, while the works of authors such as Frederick Marryat and R.M. Ballantyne act primarily as propaganda for the growing empire. Marryat deliberately rewrites The Swiss Family Robinson in his novel Masterman Ready both to offer a more “authentic” representation of British trade and to showcase the ways in which boys could best serve the growing empire. R.M. Ballantyne’s first Pacific novel, The Coral Island, also focuses on boys as “men of empire” but, through the character of Bloody Bill, warns against the dangerous implications of Pacific trade. In his later works, Gascoyne, the Sandal-wood Trader and The Island Queen, Ballantyne explores other alternatives for the future of the British presence in the Pacific, transforming pirates into productive traders and evaluating the effect of female leadership on the masculine tradition of Pacific fiction.

Abstract:
This chapter explores pirates, and pirate colonies, as imagined by Lord Byron and William Hone. The fictional pirates of these texts, like the pirates of A General History, are deeply implicated in the power structures that historical pirates tended to operate outside of: Byron’s and Hone’s pirates are tied to the nation, to the military, to religion, and to a sense of territory more generally. Reading The Corsair and The Bride of Abydos with the perspective of Hone and Don Juan in mind, this chapter argues that depictions of this particular kind of piratical failure function as a diagnosis of the imperial forces that threaten utopian imaginations, while Don Juan proposes a kind of spatial imagination that escapes rather than reinforces imperialism.

Abstract:
A one-time commercial illustrator, a playwright and a fiction writer, Jack Yeats spent much of his early adult life in in Devon, where he lived before he moved to Greystones, County Wicklow, in 1910. He loved to swim and to sail, and the characteristic he valued most was a wildness that he associated with a natural freedom, a liberty that drew him to paint travellers, fishermen, and circus performers. Wildness for Yeats was a freedom from self-consciousness and a capacity to act gaily, a characteristic he drew with vigor in his sketches of jockeys, boxers, and pirates for his children’s theatre. This last represented a freedom of the port and sea that was anchored in a much older culture of oceanic trade and discovery and the portals of this maritime world were a threshold between the diverse cultures that Yeats inhabited, which this chapter reads through his scrapbook collection.
