This section covers allusions occurring in narrative (or lyrical) sources, including belletristic literature, works of folk literature, historical narrative works such as chronicles and non-specialist works on English (local) history, cartographical works published in book form, itineraries, (auto)biographies, and records and papers of belletrist authors, scientists, politicians etc. as well as letters of all kinds. Allusions are generally understood to be short passages occurring in longer works. This may include short poems quoted in toto in other works.

Records relating to actual persons, criminal or otherwise, named Robin/Robert Hood or surnamed Robinhood, persons carrying the same name as secondary or minor characters, i.e. Little John or Will Scarlet, men surnamed Littlejohn, and records relating to historical sheriffs of Nottingham are found in the Records subsection of the Historiography section. Records relating to festivals or performances of dramas at specific localities are found in the Festivals and Drama sections respectively.

Simple entries in trade directories of the name and address of public houses named after Robin Hood are referred to where relevant in the Place-names section but are not treated as allusions. However, where such works include relevant passages in descriptive or introductory text these may be considered allusions.

Keywords in the allusion citations are indicated as follows: Robin Hood, Maid Marian, Friar Tuck. Unless otherwise indicated in the "Source notes" to the allusion in question, such keywords are not underlined in the printed, online or MS source.
