James T. Kirk

(person) by BaronCarlos (2.9 y) (print)   ?   (I like it!) Sat Nov 13 1999 at 8:51:51

The model Starfleet Captain.

James Tiberius Kirk was not a man to be reckoned with. Kirk never backed down from a fight, and if he was losing a game, he would just change the rules. In defiance to losing, Kirk blew up his own ship, the U.S.S. Enterprise just to kill a pack of angry Klingons.

James Tiberius Kirk captained the Classic Star Trek Enterprise. Like James Bond and the popular image of President JFK, Kirk evoked the 1960s character-type of the sophisticated everyman who became superhuman in a crisis, out-thinking computers and out-maneuvering gods. Each episode, Kirk's evolving thoughts played out the tensions of the 1960s: he would begin an episode with 1950s militarism and end it advocating a 1960s search for peace.
