STEPHEN KNIGHT is Professor of English Literature at the University of Wales, Cardiff he is well-known as an authority on the Robin Hood tradition, and has edited the recently-discovered Robin Hood Forresters Manuscript. Overall, the collection provides a valuable basis for further study. The thirty-one studies take a variety of approaches, from archival exploration in quest of a real Robin Hood, to a political angle seeking the social meaning of the texts across time, to literary scholars concerned with origin, structures and generic variation, or moral and social significance also included are considerations of theatre and filmstudies, and folklore and children's literature.

The first collection of major scholarly studies of aspects of the Robin Hood tradition.
