The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood PREFACE FROM THE AUTHOR TO THE READER You who so plod amid serious things that you feel it shame to give yourself up even for a few short moments to mirth and joyousness in the land of Fancy; you who think that life hath nought to do with innocent laughter that can harm no one; these pages are not for you. Clap to the leaves and go no farther than this, for I tell you plainly that if you go farther you will be scandalized by seeing good, sober folks of real history so frisk and caper in gay colors and motley that you would not know them but for the names tagged to them. Here is a stout, lusty fellow with a quick temper, yet none so ill for all that, who goes by the name of Henry II. Here is a fair, gentle lady before whom all the others bow and call her Queen Eleanor. Here is a fat rogue of a fellow, dressed up in rich robes of a clerical kind, that all the good folk call my Lord Bishop of Hereford. Here is a certain fellow with a sour temper and a grim look— the worshipful, the Sheriff of Nottingham. And here, above all, is a great, tall, merry fellow that roams the greenwood and joins in homely sports, and sits beside the Sheriff at merry feast, which same beareth the 2 of 493 The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood name of the proudest of the Plantagenets—Richard of the Lion’s Heart.

    Copyright by Todd David Onderdonk 2005 The Dissertation Committee for Todd David Onderdonk certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: I, Modernist: Male Feminization and the Self-Construction of Authorship in the Modern American Novel Committee: _____________________________ Phillip Barrish, Supervisor _____________________________ Evan Carton _____________________________ Mia Carter _____________________________ Brian Bremen _____________________________ Janet Staiger I, Modernist: Male Feminization and the Self-Construction of Authorship in the Modern American Novel by Todd David Onderdonk, B.A.; M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Texas at Austin In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin August 2005 Acknowledgements I would acknowledge the mentors who first acknowledged me as an aspiring critic at the University of Texas at Austin—my director, Phil Barrish, and committee members, Evan Carton and Mia Carter, who, in my first years of grad school, seemed to believe in me more than I did in myself. They were my models of conscience, intellectual rigor and humane values, and without their encouragement and insights this dissertation would never have been begun, much less completed. I would particularly thank my director, Phil Barrish, for his compassion, heroic tact, and intellectual engagement with this project. His lectures for a sophomore lit course (in which I was a teaching assistant) inspired my interest in identity as an area of cultural contestation and political possibility. Committee members Brian Bremen and Janet Staiger have been similarly generous and collegial mentors whose comments on drafts of this project were both demanding and heartening, and whose interests and expertise were crucial to the dissertation’s development.

  • ARCHERY 101 FUNDAMENTALS of ARCHERY During the Course the Instructor Will Review, Archery Safety, Shooting Form, and Types of Equipment
    2012 ARCHERY 101 FUNDAMENTALS OF ARCHERY During the course the Instructor will review, archery safety, shooting form, and types of equipment. Archery 101 Page 1 Texas Archery Academy www.texasarcheryacademy.org Archery 101 Course Curriculum This Archery 101 course consists of four sessions, each being one hour. Archery 101 introduces archery safety, shooting form, archery styles, equipment and scoring rules. Each session offers “show and tell” discussion for fundamental archery education. The majority of each class is just a lot of FUN shooting, but with structured drills and practice, along with skills. Students learn a neutral style of archery that builds the basics of a solid shooting form. Easy to use equipment allows skill progress, without emphasis on strength or gender. The program curriculum uses the JOAD/AAA training and awards system, a nationally recognized archery program developed by USA Archery and the international FITA “Feathers and Arrows” archery education program. This combination is the first step in a “black belt” style, self-paced, achievement program in target archery. Regular group classes combine fundamental archery education curriculum and shooting skill development. Along the way to completion, the archer will achieve three award pin levels: Green, Purple and Gray. Each has a shooting proficiency test and education curriculum. Page 1 Texas Archery Academy www.texasarcheryacademy.org Archery 101 Introduction Welcome to Archery! Through the ages, this primitive weapon has fed families, conquered civilizations, and provided a wonderful source of recreation. As a martial art, archery helps build self-confidence and control. As a sport, it ranks with golf as a challenge to building individual skill.

  • Lancashire and the Legend of Robin Hood
    Lancashire and the Legend of Robin Hood. W. T. W. Potts The common belief that Robin Hood robbed the rich to help the poor arose from an incident in the Lyttell Geste of Robyn Hode, the earliest version of the cycle of Robin Hood stories. In the Lyttell Geste Robin lends a Sir Richard at the Lee £400 in order that he may redeem his estate from the Abbot of St. Mary’s Abbey, York. Sir Richard had mortgaged his estate in order to help his son who “slewe a knyght of Lancaster and a squyer bolde.” (Verse 53) Several of the incidents in the Lyttell Geste reflect historic events in northern England during the late thirteenth and early fourteenth centuries, in modern terms, some of the tales are ‘faction’. Previous attempts to identify any historical persons or events behind Sir Richard have been unsuccessful but it will be suggested here that persons and events with the parish of Lea, a few miles west of Preston, Lancs, about this time, provide interesting parallels to the story and suggest that the Sir Richard stories are also faction. Although Robin Hood is popularly associated with Nottingham, many of the stories in the Lyttell Geste take place in Yorkshire and Lancashire, particularly in the Honours of Pontefract and Clitheroe, estates which belonged to the Lacy family in the early fourteenth century and it is likely that the stories were first composed by minstrels for the entertainment of that family.1 The Lyttell Geste was one of the first popular tales printed for the common people.
