A century and a half later, King John of England was presented in the first English historical play as the earliest English champion and martyr of that Protestant religion to which the spectators had newly come. The interpretation which thus depicted him influenced in Shakespeare's play, at once the greatest literary presentation of King John and the source of much of our common knowledge of English history. In spite of this, how- ever, the idea of John now in the mind of the person who is no student of history is nearer to the conception upon which the old Scotch nobles acted. According to this idea, John is weak, licentious, and vicious, a traitor, usurper and murderer, an excommunicated man, who was com- pelled by his oppressed barons, with the Archbishop of Canterbury at their head, to sign Magna Charta.

  • Sherwood Forest National Nature Reserve Oyster Fungus on Birch, Birklands
    Sherwood Forest National Nature Reserve Oyster fungus on birch, Birklands Introduction In the heart of Nottinghamshire lie the ancient forests of Birklands and Budby, an extensive area of old pasture-woodland and heathland on the dry nutrient-poor soils © Peter Wakely/Natural England © Peter Wakely/Natural of the Sherwood Sandstone. Together they represent a rare and wonderful fragment of the great forest of Sherwood, one of the most famous forests in the world. Today, over 420 hectares of this internationally important forest is now managed as a National Nature Reserve (NNR). © Peter Wakely/Natural England © Peter Wakely/Natural Ancient wood-pasture, Birklands “By itself it stands, and is like no other spot on which my eyes have looked, or my feet have ever England © Peter Wakely/Natural trod. It is Birkland...” (Charles Reece Pemberton, 1835). Woodland glade, Birklands History Birklands, which is an old Viking word meaning ‘birch land’, was first mentioned in documents in 1251 and is likely to be at least one thousand years old. It was part of the vast Royal Forest of Sherwood that once covered over 41,000 hectares of the county. The wood remained the property of the Crown for nearly 600 years and was used as a source of timber, grazing land and as an exclusive hunting ground rich with wild deer for successive kings and queens of England. Contrary to popular opinion, much of the historic Sherwood Forest was, in fact, tree-less, being dominated by wild open plains of heathland such as Budby South Forest. This uncultivated forest land was once grazed by wild deer, rabbits and livestock; and its trees, gorse and bracken were collected by local people for fuel and fodder.

    Survey of Visitors August 2015 Sherwood Forest Country Park Contents PART 1 Survey Aims & Objectives Methodology Sample Size & Location PART 2 Visitor Characteristics PART 3 Visitor Experience PART 4 Summary & Key Findings Part 1 Aims & Objectives Methodology Sample Size & Location Survey Aims & Objectives This survey was commissioned by Nottinghamshire County Council’s Country Park Service to gauge current visitor satisfaction at Sherwood. This is part of an annual programme of visitor insight research and includes: • Demographic profile of visitors • Frequency of visits • Places visited once at the destination • Specific insights into ‘tourist’ visitors • Effectiveness of local promotion / visitor guides • Assessment of service delivery perceptions • Measurement of visitor satisfaction Where possible comparisons will be drawn with previous surveys to identify improvement or decline but this will not be possible in all cases as survey questions and formats have changed over time. Methodology The survey took place over seven days during the school summer holidays from Monday 10 th August – Sunday 16 th August 2015. This was the week immediately following the Park’s annual Robin Hood Festival. It was conducted during August to mirror the dates of previous visitor surveys and to provide clearer year-on-year comparisons. The survey was based on face-to-face interviews with visitors and three researchers were involved in the project. Researchers used Ipad tablet devices to quickly capture information. Questionnaires were programmed with icons, images, sliders and radio buttons to illustrate points and engage interviewees. Methodology The questionnaire consisted of 19 questions which were designed and agreed in advance with the Park Development Officer.

  • Towards a Reconstruction of Robin Hood and the Sheriff of Nottingham
    Early Theatre 14.1 (2011) Alexis Butzner ‘Sette on foote with gode Wyll’: Towards a Reconstruction of Robin Hood and the Sheriff of Nottingham Lythe and listin, gentilmen, That be of frebore blode; I shall you tel of a gode yeman, His name was Robyn Hode. A Gest of Robyn Hode1 In the greenwood of England, a game is afoot. Robin Hood, the noble ban- dit, has been identified as the audacious hero of Sherwood and Barnsdale for centuries, and his constant presence in ballads and drama since the four- teenth century attests to his popularity in and influence on the culture of the English nation. In a manuscript fragment of the late fifteenth century,2 the legend finds incarnation in a twenty-one-line drama (forty-two, if the caesurae are recognized instead as line-breaks), known by most scholars as Robin Hood and the Sheriff of Nottingham. The text contains no indication of scene-divisions or stage directions, and does not offer any notation to indi- cate the identity of the various speakers. Because the text offers so little in the way of definite answers, it invites interpretation. Despite their admirable efforts to treat the fragment, however, scholars have reached little consensus: critics, while advancing the probable accuracy of their own reconstructions, have yet to resolve some crucial difficulties that arise in the extant text. By reading the script Robin Hood and the Sheriff of Nottingham as a single and complete play-text, as I do in this re-examination, readers may reconcile its apparent inconsistencies. Since the first extant record of Robin Hood in literature, in the four- teenth century Piers Plowman, tales and rhymes of the legendary outlaw have permeated Anglophone culture — a feat of public memory that, according to Stephen Knight, is surpassed only by stories of King Arthur.3 That the Robin Hood legend survives — and thrives — should not come as a shock; 61 62 Alexis Butzner even in his earliest incarnations, he occupies a liminal space between social strata.

The terrible explosion at the mine was still sounding in people’s ears. Rowan found his father. He was sitting by the body of his uncle and crying. ‘He’s dead, Rowan.

  • Treacherous 'Saracens' and Integrated Muslims
    TREACHEROUS ‘SARACENS’ AND INTEGRATED MUSLIMS: THE ISLAMIC OUTLAW IN ROBIN HOOD’S BAND AND THE RE-IMAGINING OF ENGLISH IDENTITY, 1800 TO THE PRESENT 1 ERIC MARTONE Stony Brook University [email protected] 53 In a recent Associated Press article on the impending decay of Sherwood Forest, a director of the conservancy forestry commission remarked, “If you ask someone to think of something typically English or British, they think of the Sherwood Forest and Robin Hood… They are part of our national identity” (Schuman 2007: 1). As this quote suggests, Robin Hood has become an integral component of what it means to be English. Yet the solidification of Robin Hood as a national symbol only dates from the 19 th century. The Robin Hood legend is an evolving narrative. Each generation has been free to appropriate Robin Hood for its own purposes and to graft elements of its contemporary society onto Robin’s medieval world. In this process, modern society has re-imagined the past to suit various needs. One of the needs for which Robin Hood has been re-imagined during late modern history has been the refashioning of English identity. What it means to be English has not been static, but rather in a constant state of revision during the past two centuries. Therefore, Robin Hood has been adjusted accordingly. Fictional narratives erase the incongruities through which national identity was formed into a linear and seemingly inevitable progression, thereby fashioning modern national consciousness. As social scientist Etiénne Balibar argues, the “formation of the nation thus appears as the fulfillment of a ‘project’ stretching over centuries, in which there are different stages and moments of coming to self-awareness” (1991: 86).

  • Little Red Robin Hood CHARACTER SCHEDULE
    Characters of Little Red Robin Hood CHARACTER SCHEDULE AMELIA, A.K.A. LITTLE RED ROBIN HOOD The young heroine of our panto. The forest creatures nickname Amelia “Little Red Robin Hood” because of her red cloak and how she reminds them of their long-lost savior, Robin Hood. She is a strong-willed, fifteen-year- old orphan with a knack for archery and a determination to save Sherwood Forest. MAUD A.K.A. THE GRANNY IN THE WOODS The Granny is a classic character from Little Red Riding Hood, but Maud is much more than a wolf’s dinner. She fights side-by-side with Little Red against a greedy villainess, inspires the whole forest with her letters to the editor, and is the dame of this panto! What’s a dame, you ask? In basic terms, the dame is the beloved matriarch of any panto, and is always a drag role – think Robin Williams in Mrs. Doubtfire. LADY NOTTINGHAM Unlike Maud and Amelia, Lady Nottingham doesn’t have a direct fairytale counterpart. She’s the villain of our story and is a sort of combination between Prince John from Disney’s cartoon Robin Hood and Cersei Lannister from Game of Thrones. CHARACTER SCHEDULE LUPO The big bad wolf of our story isn’t really that big, and truly isn’t that bad, either. Lupo gets caught up in a bad crowd working for Lady Nottingham, but doesn’t want to eat Little Red or her Granny like in the original tales. He serves as more of a narrator in our version.

He had a limited education, but his mother encouraged him to read on a daily basis.1 In his adult life, he became a professional author. He greatly admired Walter Scott, whom he referred to as “the immortal author of Waverley.”2 Indeed, such was his admiration that it was in emulation of Scott’s Ivanhoe (1819) that Miller authored his own Robin Hood novel titled Royston Gower; or, The Days of King John, published in December 1838.3 Ivanhoe had a profound influence upon the Robin Hood legend.
