Swashbuckler
A swashbuckler is a heroic archetype in European adventure literature that is typified by the use of a sword and chivalric ideals. The archetype also became common as a film genre.
==The swashbuckler as an archetype==
A 'swashbuckler' is generally a protagonist who is heroic and idealistic and who rescues damsels in distress. Swashbucklers as an archetype are not pirates. His opponent is typically characterised as the dastardly villain. There is a long list of swashbucklers who combine outstanding courage, swordfighting skill, resourcefulness, and a distinctive sense of honor and justice, as for example ''Cyrano de Bergerac'', ''The Three Musketeers'', ''The Scarlet Pimpernel'', Robin Hood, and Zorro.
The hero's activities are primarily chivalaric: rescuing fair maidens, saving the king, or defending the peasants from oppression. Even seventeenth and eighteenth century highwayman and pirate heroes were made to conform to this stereotype.〔(Richards, Jeffrey. ''Swordsmen of the Screen'', Routledge, 2014, ISBN 9781317928638 )〕
