Erin Lockwood and Catherine Manhardt are juniors at American University who have been granted an Undergraduate Summer Research Fellowship to study representations of piracy. We created this blog to allow friends, family, and all other interested parties to keep up with what we are doing as our research progresses, and to create a real-time public record of some of our more interesting piratical findings. A copy of our grant application is available here. Enjoy!
