  • Cultural Imaginations of Piracy in Video Games
    FORUM FOR INTER-AMERICAN RESEARCH (FIAR) VOL. 11.2 (SEP. 2018) 30-43 ISSN: 1867-1519 © forum for inter-american research “In a world without gold, we might have been heroes!” Cultural Imaginations of Piracy in Video Games EUGEN PFISTER (HOCHSCHULE DER KÜNSTE BERN) Abstract From its beginning, colonialism had to be legitimized in Western Europe through cultural and political narratives and imagery, for example in early modern travel reports and engravings. Images and tales of the exotic Caribbean, of beautiful but dangerous „natives“, of unbelievable fortunes and adventures inspired numerous generations of young men to leave for the „new worlds“ and those left behind to support the project. An interesting figure in this set of imaginations in North- Western Europe was the “pirate”: poems, plays, novels and illustrations of dashing young rogues, helping their nation to claim their rightful share of the „Seven Seas“ achieved major successes in France, Britain the Netherlands and beyond. These images – regardless of how far they might have been from their historical inspiration – were immensely successful and are still an integral and popular part of our narrative repertoire: from novels to movies to video games. It is important to note that the “story” was – from the 18th century onwards –almost always the same: a young (often aristocratic) man, unfairly convicted for a crime he didn’t commit became an hors-la-loi against his will but still adhered to his own strict code of conduct and honour. By rescuing a city/ colony/princess he redeemed himself and could be reintegrated into society. Here lies the morale of the story: these imaginations functioned also as acts of political communication, teaching “social discipline”.

It has been a common pattern within Disney’s animated features that characters who speak with non- Storytelling is a crucial part for humankind as well Standard American accents are portrayed as outsiders, as in oral history. Movie adaptations have also become and are selfish and corrupt with the desire to seek or a key ingredient in relaying certain messages to people obtain power.

However, children watching movies and Disney’s most popular animated feature films, The Lion absorbing stories are susceptible and systematically King. In this Hamlet-inspired tale, the main characters’ exposed to a standard (or specific) language ideology accents bring attention to which characters fall into by means of linguistic stereotypes in films and television the “good guy” versus “bad guy” stereotype.

Loechle ALL RIGHTS RESERVED iii Acknowledgments I am indebted to many people for the help and encouragement they have given me during the long duration of this project. From academic and financial to editorial and emotional, I was never lacking in support. I am truly thankful, not to mention lucky. Sarah Burns, my advisor and mentor, supported my ideas, cheered my successes, and patiently edited and helped me to revise my failures. I also owe her thanks for encouraging me to pursue an unorthodox topic. From the moment pirates came up during one of our meetings in the spring of 2005, I was hooked. She knew it, and she continuously suggested ways to expand the idea first into an independent study, and then into this dissertation. My dissertation committee – Janet Kennedy, Patrick McNaughton, and Beverly Stoeltje – likewise deserves my thanks for their mentoring and enthusiasm. Other scholars have graciously shared with me their knowledge and input along the way. David M. Lubin read a version of my third chapter and gave me helpful advice, opening up to me new ways of thinking about Howard Pyle in particular.

  • The Wicked Wench." in the Han Solo Trilogy I Was Privileged to Write the Scene Where Han First Beheld -- and Fell for -- the Millennium Falcon
    Here's the fifth excerpt, which is actually the beginning of Chaper 6, titled "The Wicked Wench." In the Han Solo Trilogy I was privileged to write the scene where Han first beheld -- and fell for -- the Millennium Falcon. What a thrill! And it was every bit as much of a thrill to write the following scene, I assure you! In April I'll post the sixth and final excerpt from the novel...the one where Jack takes his first (and possibly only!) BATH. Only about eight weeks to go before the release date! -------------------------------- Jack Sparrow had never thought it would happen to him. All his life, he‟d heard people speak of love—mostly men, of course, since he‟d spent the majority of his life at sea, and there were few women who chose that life. Life on the sea was a male-dominated occupation, whether the sailors were pirates or seamen aboard a merchant ship or the crew of a naval vessel. There were the rare—and refreshing—exceptions, of course, such as Esmeralda, lovely Esmeralda . Men were self-conscious about referring to love. They were often given to enthused bragging regarding their carnal adventures and conquests, but when they referred to love, it was usually in a hushed whisper, or a mumble. Sometimes an awed murmur, if the poor chap was embarrassingly besotted. Jack wanted to shout his adoration aloud—and he would have, too, if he hadn‟t had a certain dignity to maintain. But ever since that day when he‟d seen her, he‟d thought of her with .

  • We Need More Jack Sparrow, Savvy?
    We Need More Jack Sparrow, Savvy? A Swashbuckler’s Guide to System Modeling With SysML Michael J. Vinarcik, ESEP-Acq, OCSMP-Model Builder—Advanced Booz Allen Hamilton 2016 International Council on Systems Engineering Great Lakes Regional Conference Copyright © 2016 by Michael J. Vinarcik. Permission granted to INCOSE to publish and use. Why do projects overspend and overrun? “Why do so many big projects overspend and overrun? They’re managed as if they were merely complicated when in fact they are complex. They’re planned as if everything was known at the start when in fact they involve high levels of uncertainty and risk.” Architecting Systems: Concepts, Principles and Practice, Hillary Sillitto, Back cover What is the issue? • System complexity has grown to the point where no single individual can have deep, thorough understanding of every system element and its: – Attributes – Behaviors – Roles – Interactions WHAT ARE WE TO DO? MODEL THE SYSTEM! System modeling • System modeling enables the codification of subject matter expertise in a clear, unambiguous format. It enables the creation of a “single repository of technical truth” that an entire development team can draw upon to have timely, relevant, and useful information in the execution of its tasks. • Lockheed Martin speakers have elaborated on this further and call it the “weaving of a digital tapestry.” This is an apt metaphor, since a comprehensive system model is not just a single thread of information but a rich, multi-dimensional representation of the system of interest. How to do it? • If we agree that constructing system model is the right way to handle the both the complicated and complex nature of modern systems, the “how” is critically important.

  • All Decked out Updated Pirates of the Caribbean Ride at Disneyland Sails on Amid Mixed Reviews from Purists and Pundits
    All decked out Updated Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland sails on amid mixed reviews from purists and pundits By Laura Mecoy -- Bee Los Angeles Bureau Published 12:01 am PDT Sunday, July 2, 2006 Story appeared in Travel section, Page M1 The Wicked Wench pirate ship, a set piece in Disneyland's Pirates of the Caribbean attraction, gleams after refurbishments. Disney Enterprises ANAHEIM -- Shiver me timbers! Thar be changes ter one of yer favorite Disneyland rides, Pirates of the Caribbean, 'n' sum lily-livered fans are ready ter mutiny over 'em. Tha' scalawag, Cap'n Jack Sparrow, who's bin prancin' roun' on movie screens, ha' joined the pillagin' and pilferin' pirates, along with tha' scurvy bilge rat Barbossa an' tha' dreaded Davy Jones. But avast, me hearties! The Bee be pleased ter say it signed up its own crew o' wee beauties 'n' buccaneers fer a first look-see, and they ha' a message for ye complainin' ol' salts: "Yo! Chill, dude." In a cool-headed appraisal of the "enhanced" pirates ride Disney reopened on Monday, my 12- year-old son, Ryan Walker, declared: "It's not that different." "I wished they'd changed it more," his 8-year-old sister, Grace, said. "It just looks like the old ride. It was kind of boring." Cole Feaster, an 11-year-old critic on The Bee's crew, wanted a faster ride, while 7-year-old Claire Regenstreif thought Disney should have updated all the pirates. "Most of the old ones were dirty and gross," she said. The kid critics are Southern California-resident Disneyland veterans who have been to the park countless times and count among their favorite flicks the 2003 blockbuster inspired by the ride, "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl." Come about, full! With the Pirates of the Caribbean sequel "Dead Man's Chest" set to open nationwide Friday, the concept has gone full circle so that the movies now are inspiring the pirate ride.
