Scholarly sources analyzing the accuracy of piracy in modern film?

by willeatforfood8

I have found no relatively popular analysis on any mainstream scholarly database (Jstor/EBSCOhost etc.) analyzing the accuracy of the depiction of pirates in modern movies. It's a bit lazy to ask on here but I figure you guys know your shit so why not.

I remember finding just one or two, after long efforts. But I won't be able to access my database for a few days.

I've made some efforts to do some proper analysis of pirate content - specifically Black Sails the TV series - which you can read here.

For now, I just remembers a couple books that might help you (you said articles before, so my mindset was only on that).
Try either British Pirates in Print and Performance or Treasure Neverland: Real and Imaginary Pirates. Both books will have parts in it that address media depictions of pirates, including some movies.

Sorry for the delay to this. Here are the two academic articles I was referring to that might also help, but i would also highly recommend the two books I mentioned in a previous post.

Ritchie, Robert C. “Living with Pirates.” Rethinking History 13, no. 3 (September 2009): 411–418.

Bond, Richard E. “Piratical Americans : Representations of Piracy and Authority in Mid-Twentieth- Century Swashbucklers.” The Journal of American Culture 33, no. 4 (2010): 309–321.
