Its English name Robin Hood literally means "Robin Hood", not "Robin Hood", as paronymy of hood with wood has often been suggested 1, depending on the version Anglo-Saxon. Robin hood is also maybe a character oldest of the British Isles: Hood = c'hoad in Old Breton, actually means "wood" and is one of the oldest names of European family (Walt, Silva Coat Dubois ...). The notorious Hood would be an added retrospectively by the Anglo-Saxon legend to explain the English name "Robin Hood"
History and legend
Statue of Robin Hood in Nottingham
The first handwriting of Robin Hood is in the farmer Peter ( Piers Plowman ) by William Langland ( 1377), where Sloth, a lazy priest, said: "I know the rhymes of Robin Hood." Three years later, Scottish chronicler John Fordun wrote that the character of Robin Hood in the ballads "likes better than all others."
Many versions of the printed ballads appear in early xvi th century when the printing is taking its first booms in England . Robin is described as a gentleman , which at that time means a trader or an independent farmer. Only at the end of the century it acquired a noble title and took the name "Robin of Loxley "or" Robert Fitz OOTH, Earl of Huntington .
His association with romantic Marianne (or "Marion", sometimes called "Matilda") dates from this period of time. The name "Marion" comes from a shepherdess lyrical French poet Adam de la Halle , the Jeu de Robin et Marion (circa 1283). Apart from names, yet nothing can establish a correspondence between the two characters.
At the end of the xvi th century , the story of Robin Hood back in time to be around the years 1190when King Richard the Lion Heart went to the Third Crusade . In the xvii th century , Robin Hood appears in The Sad Shepherd ( The Sad Shepherd , 1641) by Ben Jonson . Then, in xix th century , Robin Hood became a hero of the novel Ivanhoe ( 1819) of Walter Scott . The idea that Robin is a rebel Saxon warrior lords Norman date from this period.
Was accused of plagiarism Thomas Love Peacock (1785-1866) for the famous Maid Marian , published three years after Ivanhoe . Peacock has always maintained that his book was written in 1818, a year before the publication of one of Scott. The influence of Rabelais is sensitive, especially through the character of Friar Tuck.
Around the character of Robin, many inconsistencies have crept in over the years. It is said that Robin Lord of Loxley (head of the County of Hallamshire ) was dispossessed of his land by the Sheriff of Nottingham and declared outlaw . The sheriff is indeed in the early ballads, where Robin finally beheading him, but there is no question of his land. His other enemies are a bounty hunter named Guy of Gisbourne , and rich abbots , which are also killed by Robin. But if the old ballads mention of a loan granted by a Robin Knight unlucky, they say nothing about a redistribution of plundering the poor. It is also said that Robin is the green Sherwood Forest in Nottinghamshire, while the ballads do evolve to Barnsdale , in York County , or about 80 miles north.
From the Middle Ages to today, songs and ballads, plays and musical comedies, movies and television series have created a myth in tune with the times, subject to the passage of many ideological manipulation, as illustrated by the example of character Marianne, who now plays the role of a warrior, sometimes that of a passive girl, or that of Robin Hood himself, sometimes presented as a mere bandit, sometimes as a resistance fighter who fight for a just cause.
