Описание: Postmodern Pirates offers a comprehensive analysis of Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean series and the pirate motif through the lens of postmodern theories. Susanne Zhanial shows how the postmodern elements determine the movies’ aesthetics, narratives, and character portrayals, but also places the movies within Hollywood’s contemporary blockbuster machinery. The book then offers a diachronic analysis of the pirate motif in British literature and Hollywood movies. It aims to explain our ongoing fascination with the maritime outlaw, focuses on how a text’s cultural background influences the pirate’s portrayal, and pays special attention to the aspect of gender. Through the intertextual references in Pirates of the Caribbean , the motif’s development is always tied to Disney’s postmodern movie series.
Visions of cartoon characters dancing around a cauldron with an explorer tied inside.
Balboa gazing on the Pacific Ocean. De Leon and the fountain of youth. Pizarro conquering the Incas. Henry Morgan, in red, drinking spiced rum. Smoke curling around Blackbeard as his cutlass slashes through the air. ... all children's tales that mean nothing.
Today, we do not know who any of these people were, how they came to do what they did, or why they did it. The struggle for power, freedom, and wealth that shaped the Caribbean for two and a half centuries has, since John Barrie created Peter Pan, been relegated to the same literary section as Barney the Dinosaur; yet, underneath the soil of the modern world, the roots are still there. I started pulling them up on St. Croix, and the roots led to more roots, and more. Islands connected, nations connected, and legends came to life.
Officially, St. Croix has flown seven flags over the last 500 years. Before the American flag and the Danebrog, the Spanish came for gold, the Dutch to trade, the English to raid, and the Knights of St. John to be in charge. The French built a colony only to watch it die of fever. During all of those years, Pirates, Conquistadors, Freebooters, Filibustiers, Corsairs, Buccaneers -whatever you call them- ruled the Caribbean and called St. Croix home, stealing at sea whether they had 'permission' to do so or not, and paying no attention at all to whatever European flag was flying.
It is time to recognize our eighth flag. It was black. This is the untold story of St. Croix and a Caribbean long forgotten.
Come. Sail with me.

Описание: The people in the five realms are reeling from the reveal of Yokouro DeVastes, the mass-murdering demon Old Blood Lord, as the one who attacked a school filled with children. Distrust begins to breed as the Dimension Protection Council attempt to cover the information before everything falls into panic. After the information is leaked, Dalton Teban and his four teammates are left struggling to get the trust of the people again without revealing more of Yokouro DeVastes' intentions. But panic begins to take hold of the public, and the Guardians and Dimension Protection Council soon become the object of distrust and anger.Meanwhile Dalton and his team are faced with other problems--Dalton's growing power. Concerned for their team leader's well-being, the others of Team Dalton do their best to help Dalton understand his powers. No one will explain what Dalton's true purpose is by fighting Yokouro, leaving them angry and confused. Their enemy is working to undermine the Guardians' efforts of understanding by keeping them in the dark as they try desperately to find an answer to their team leader's powers. It becomes clear that there is something far more powerful than Yokouro DeVastes behind the destiny Dalton holds. Gathering for the third round of the Guardian Tournament, the enemy's influence begins to shake the trust the Guardians have in one another. Accused of having the tournament fixed in their favor, Team Dalton and the Dimension Protection Council must attempt to juggle the tournament and the influence of Yokouro's all-powerful allies, the Trade Masters. With an uncertain fate ahead, Team Dalton finds themselves trapped where the only way to survive is for Dalton to accept his fate--or lose those he loves most.
