    The most dangerous and fearsome pirate that I know about the most is Blackbeard the Pirate. Blackbeard’s presumed name was Edward Teach, but some believe that it was only an alias to protect his family back home. His cognomen, Blackbeard, was derived from his thick black beard and fearsome appearance. Blackbeard was a shrewd and calculating leader. He avoided the use of force, relying instead on his fearsome image to elicit the response he desired from those he robbed.…

    “YO HO YO HO a Pirates life for me!” In the 18th Century the seas where terrorized by pirates. The black flag with a skull and cross bones stuck fear into the hearts of all men, women, and children. And, even today we see the lasting impression pirates have on us as a society through movies, books, TV shows, and cartoons. Over the years pirates have been downgraded from vicious cut throat criminals to silly fairytale characters such as Captain Hook. Archaeologists use data, and excavations to go back in time and put the pieces of the past back together. For many years the hunt for the infamous Blackbeard’s treasure has evoked hundreds of people to go on wild goose chases to be the one to discover it. Blackbeard captained the ship “Queen Anne’s Revenge” and when archaeologists discover a sunken ship off the coast of North Carolina believed to be the very ship many questions are answered while others rise from the depths.…

    First, buccaneers, from the French word boucanier, were pirates who were stationed in the Caribbean. They consisted mostly of runaways, fugitives, and seamen who deserted their crew. These pirates often hunted wild boar and oxen on the islands of Haiti, Hispaniola, and Dominican Republic. They smoked their hunt on a barbeque grill, also known as a boucan, which they learned from the Arawak Indians. When the Spanish tried to dispose of them, they decided to raid Spanish ships and towns (Cindy Vallar 1). By the 17th century, a buccaneer meant a French or English pirate or privateer who operated in the West Indies preying on the Spanish. A buccaneer was much like a corsair who had bases in the Caribbean.…

    The Zanni are often referred to as ‘servant’ characters. However, Zanni have traditional uses for filling out other types of careers ranging from shopkeepers to politicians. They all are most commonly shows to be servants of the vecchi (which means ‘old men’) and innamorati (which means the romantic leads, also known as the ‘lovers’). The origin of the term Zanni indicates that rather, they are meant to represent commoners or the everyman. The Zanni are the most versatile of the commedia characters; they may be either working for someone, or may have their own motivations apart from any sides. Some stories, for example, The Marvellous Malady of Harlequin, omit the other character types altogether and focus squarely on the Zanni. The Zanni are often described as masked characters. The main trait which all the Zanni share is that they are supposed to be entertaining. This is most often achieved through comical behaviors and speeches, but can also be done through other methods like acrobatics or dancing. There were common qualities between all the Zanni characters: they all possessed common sense, intelligence, pride, a love for practical jokes and intrigue.…

    Buried treasure, eye patches, and walking the plank are all words and phrases that often appear in stories involving pirates. Tales about the voyages of pirates are often adventurous and riveting ones. It is very awe-inspiring to think about the daring lives those pirates once led. However, it might not be safe to assume that these stories are close to the truth or even based on genuine facts. In 1881 Robert Louis Stevenson wrote a book entitled Treasure Island, which in return would forever change the way people looked at the term "pirate." Due to this book there are several different movies that have been created to interpret the term pirate in different ways. Black Pirate, The Dancing Pirate, Sea Hawk, and Captain Blood include some of the movies that we viewed in class that caught my attention. There are also many Cds and DVDs that have been released about pirates, one of the most popular ones is Pirates of the Caribbean. All of these films offer many different similarities and differences in relation to the book Robert Stevenson wrote entitled Treasure Island. This in return has shaped our society.…

    The pirates operate in organized teams of eight or nine, this helps them divide up and take on shipping vessels in two or three different teams. As Anouk Zijlma writes; the pirates work off of so called “mother” boats.
