| dc.description.abstract | Although pirates' representation in art is drastically different from reality, yet not many scholars and researchers have been interested in the subject. This research is among the few attempts to investigate the origin of pirates' representation in literature and through the study of one of the first novels that portray pirates, which is Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island. Our thesis aims to show that the way pirates are depicted in Treasure Island influenced their representation in the books published later. It is our assumption in this research that Louis Stevenson is credited with creating new stereotypical images of the pirates in his book. The second assumption is that his text had a significant impact on the pirates' representation in other literary texts and even media. To conduct our research, we relied on two major theories used in comparative literature, which are influence and Intertextuality.Thus, It is our intention, in this research, to compare Louis Stevenson's novel with the pirates' book One Piece for its Japanese magna Eiichiro Oda and also with The Pirates of the Caribbean franchise (2003-2017) and Pirates (1986) in terms of their representation of pirates and the aspects related to piracy. We would say, in brief, that this research attempts to show the influence of Treasure Island on modern pirates' literature and media by highlighting the stereotypes that were not to become widespread without Treasure Island. | ar |
