Description

Explore how piracy shaped eighteenth-century thought and culture with this scholarly work from Routledge's Maritime Humanities series. This book examines the complex relationship between criminality, human nature, and civil government during the Golden Age of Piracy, analysing how pirate narratives influenced Enlightenment ideas about society and morality. Ideal for historians, students of maritime studies, and anyone interested in how piracy became embedded in popular imagination and political discourse, this volume offers fresh perspectives on one of history's most romanticised criminal phenomena. Part of the Maritime Humanities, 1400-1800 series, it combines rigorous historical scholarship with engaging exploration of how pirate mythmaking reflected broader concerns about governance, justice, and individual liberty in the early modern world.
