By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-08-08. Revised by … Together with the Gest of Robyn Hode and Walter Scott's Ivanhoe (1820), Howard Pyle's Merry Adventures of Robin Hood (1883) is … by renaissance traditions, directly or perhaps more likely indirectly through Scott's Ivanhoe, Pyle chose to locate the life of Robin Hood during the reign of Richard I (1189-99) rather than that of "our comely King Edward" as in the Gest, but apart from this the book follows the ballads quite closely in terms of plot and incidents. Pyle is far from the first writer to avail himself of the fact that the ballads, done into prose and arranged in proper sequence, provide a 'life of Robin Hood'. In fact the earliest English children's books on Robin Hood tended to be such prose renderings of the ballads. What distinguishes Pyle's book is especially the nostalgic tone, evident also in the author's masterly drawings. Translations …

Irvinghoe. By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2016-12-12. Revised by … The name of the village of Ivinghoe, roughly 10 km south of Leighton Buzzard, is believed to have been the inspiration for the title and the name of the eponymous hero of Walter Scott's Ivanhoe (1820). This, easily Scott's most famous novel, is probably the most widely known and most influential historical novel ever published. Robin Hood, Friar Tuck and the other outlaws are important subsidiary characters and allies of the hero of the novel. It is probably fair to say that in terms of significance to the Robin Hood tradition it is rivalled only by the Gest of Robyn Hode and Howard Pyle's Merry Adventures of Robin Hood. The place-name 'Ivinghoe' is first recorded in Domesday Book (1086), in the form "Evinghehou", Mawer, Allen 1925b, p. 96. from OE Ifinga-hō(g)e, "the hoh ['projecting ridge of land, a promontory' OED, s.n. hoe, n. 1 (£). ] of Ifa's people". Allen Mawer notes that Ivinghoe is located "at the …

Robin Hood's Well. By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-07-22. Revised by … Photo: Matthew Hillier. Fountains Abbey is the home of the "Curtal Friar" and the scene of the main action of the ballad of Robin Hood and the Curtal Friar (Version A in MS of c. 1650, version B first printed 1663). Within or very close to the abbey grounds are two places named after Robin Hood: Robin Hood's Wood and Robin Hood's Well. The covering of the latter is built into a slope in Robin Hood's Wood at the southern boundary of the abbey grounds. Dobson & Taylor refer to it as the "well now associated with Friar Tuck's combat with, and ducking of, Robin Hood". Dobson, Richard Barrie 1976a, p. 310. It may have been named Robin Hood's Well to commemorate the said combat, though we have no evidence of this, but it should be stressed that the water into which Robin Hood was ducked in the ballad was not the trickle from this little well but the Skell which runs by (and once ran under) the abbey. The …

Loxley. By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-08-07. Revised by … The village of Loxley, now a suburb of Sheffield, is first mentioned (as "Lokkeslay") in 1329. There are references also to Loxley Firth, Loxley Plain and Loxley Chase etc.; the latter still survives. See for instance 6" map Yorkshire 288 (1855; surveyed 1850-51) and the maps listed in the Maps section below. The etymology of Loxley is "Locc's forest-glade". Locc was an Old English personal name well-attested in both place-names and on coins. This is the Loxley most generally believed to be the locality connected with Robin Hood. Smith, Albert Hugh 1961a, pt. 1, pp. 225, 226; pt. VII, p. 73. Smith notes simply that "[t]his Loxley is the one associated with the Robin Hood ballads". Smith. op. cit., pt. I, p. 225. Although there must have been local traditions connecting Robin Hood with Loxley by the late 16th century, only a few late ballads associate him with the area. The first known source to connect Robin Hood …
