The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood

Autor Howard Pyle
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 iul 2020
"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 not to do with innocent laughter that can harm no one; these pages are not for you." ¿ Howard Pyle, The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood of Great Renown in Nottinghamshire (1883) is written and illustrated by Howard Pyle. In this novel, Pyle extended the 19th-century portrayal of Robin Hood as a heroic outlaw who robs the rich to feed the poor and adapted it for children. Pyle's novel increased the popularity of Robin Hood in the United States and influenced later writers and artists in their own Robin Hood portrayals. Although this book is nearly 140 years old, its joyful tale about the witty and charming adventurer and outlaw Robin Hood remains an enjoyable read and a true classic for children and adults alike.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:

Robin Hood is a lovable outlaw, who along with his band of Merry Men, become famous for their frequent escapades with friends and foes alike. He is constantly at odds with authority, specifically the Sheriff of Nottingham, who's committed to making him pay for his crimes. After a clash with locals, Robin Hood becomes a wanted man evading the efforts the nefarious Sheriff of Nottingham. Despite many attempts, the infamous bandit manages to avoid capture and enlist multiple Merry Men, including Little John, Friar Tuck and Allan a Dale. Throughout his travels, Robin uses his superior archery skills to protect himself and others from potential threats. With his charm and wit, he navigates a series of challenges leading to the ultimate absolution. Pyle's retelling enforces the narrative of an English outlaw who becomes a beloved hero. He refrains from early characterization that portrayed Robin Hood as a self-serving thief with few redeeming qualities. By having a moral compass, the author made him palatable to a broader audience, particularly children. The book was an overwhelming success and inspired multiple adaptions including television and feature films. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood is both modern and readable.
