In literature, the term "privateer" often evokes images of sanctioned maritime marauders who blur the lines between legitimate naval warfare and piracy. For example, in educational texts, the term is used practically to describe the capture of ships, as seen when a townsman’s sloop is noted to have been captured by a privateer [1]. At the same time, literary narratives like those in Southey’s account of Lord Nelson portray privateers as active combatants in naval confrontations, with vivid depictions of confrontations involving guns and muskets leveling threats from strategic points [2] and even highlighting the privateer’s prowess in seizing enemy property, as indicated by the possession of French-made jackets [3]. In broader fictional portrayals, such as Thackeray’s Vanity Fair, the term extends into the realm of colorful characterizations, where privateers are identified by evocative names like "Molasses," further enriching their dramatic role in maritime conflicts [4].
