文化面面觀 The history of piracy 海盜們的「光榮」歷史The flag of 18th-century pirate Calico JackBecause it is oftentheresult of failure or laxity in patrolling sea routes,piracyflourished in times of unrest, or when navies ordinarilyprotectingcommerce were engaged in war. Pirates found their mostsuitablebase of operations in an archipelago that offered sheltertogetherwith proximity to trade routes. Pirates preyed uponPhoenician andGreek commerce and were so active in the 1st cent.B.C. that Romeitself was almost starved by their interception ofthe grainconvoys.
Pompey swept piracy from the Mediterranean, but with thedeclineof the Roman Empire it revived there and was prevalent untilmoderntimes. Muslim pirates infested the W Mediterranean; theVenetians,who ostensibly policed the E Mediterranean, preyed uponthemaritime trade of rival cities; and the Barbary States got muchoftheir revenue from piracy. In the North, the Vikings harassedthecommerce of the Baltic Sea and the English Channel. Emerging inthe13th cent., the Hanseatic League succeeded in curbing the piracyofits era.
New trade routes opened during the Renaissance, e.g., theshipmentof precious metals from the Spanish colonies, the richtrade withthe East, and the development of the slave trade, thatmade piracyespecially lucrative. At this period no great stigmawas attached topiracy because maritime law had not beensystematized. This fact,together with the increasing colonialrivalry of the powers, ledstates to countenance those pirates whopromoted the national causeby attacking the commerce of rivalnations. With the tacit approvalof the provincial authorities, theWest Indies became a piratesrendezvous, and the Englishbuccaneers of the Spanish Main in the17th and 18th cent., whodespoiled the Spanish treasure armadas andpillagedSpanish-American coast settlements, returned to England todividetheir spoils with the crown and to receive the royal pardon.2

In1815 and 1816 the United States, theNetherlands, and Great Britainwiped out the Barbary pirates, whohad exacted tribute under thethreat of capturing ships andimprisoning their crews. In 1816,Great Britain and the UnitedStates began operations againstpirates in the West Indies,particularly those on the Cuban coast,and in 1824 the United Statessent David Porter to complete thetask. The power of the piratesalong the Straits of Malacca and theChina seas was broken after theOpium Wars in the late 19th cent.During the Spanish Civil War themajor powers agreed (1937) at theNyon Conference on an antipiracypact after mysterious attacks onmerchant ships in theMediterranean. Small-scale piracy persists insome waters,particularly in Indonesia and SE and S Asia, in theRed Sea and offthe Horn of Africa, off the Gulf of Guinea coast,and offEcuador.
我觀之我見告別了刀風血雨的冷兵器時代，現代人的生活被越來越豐富的物質、越來越先進的科技所包圍，這種溫室中的生活難免讓人懷念起幾個世紀前那些艱苦的生存鬥爭。於是就有人把這些鬥爭包裝成驚險浪漫的故事，剔除那些實際生活的困苦，讓現代人在幻想中經歷一場大冒險，滿足尋求刺激的心理。這，也許就是近幾年海盜片、古代戰鬥史詩片分外火的原因吧。只是這一次我們的故事可算不上悲壯，一個瘋瘋癲癲的海盜，一個英俊執著的鐵匠，一位敢愛敢恨的美女，再加上一群看了就想笑的骷髏船員，這部片子帶給你的絕對不止是冒險的滿足，還有愉悅身心、輕鬆大腦的功能。煩惱的時候拿出來看看，肯定立刻會雲開霧散。
