Book excerpt: WHAT IF... Robin Hood defeated his nemesis Prince John and became king? In a cottage near Nottingham, the low-born son of the shire's baron is raised by his peasant mother to respect the poor and keep his honor. "Deeds make a man, Robert. Not a title," she tells her son.

Download or read book Robin and the King written by Parke Godwin and published by Avon Books. This book was released on 1994-07 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With Sherwood, Parke Godwin reshaped the familiar story of Robin Hood to create his own unique version of the centuries-old legend. Taking the popular characters of Robin and Maid Marian, Little John and Will Scatloch, Godwin spun a tale of the adventures in Sherwood Forest vastly different from other renditions of the myth. This latest volume from Parke Godwin reveals a fascinating new aspect of the Robin Hood legend - the story of his later life and exploits as defender of the English people. Robin and the King continues the magic of this fabled epic in a drama richer, more powerful, and grander in scope than Sherwood, weaving two historical men into Robin's life: the friendship of the king's son Rossel and the dangerous enmity of Ranulf of Bayeux. The tale returns again to Nottingham and Sherwood Forest, now set later in the reign of William of Normandy, who had conquered the Anglo-Saxon peoples years earlier when Robin was a mere youth. A now older Robin has remained fiercely committed to freeing his fellow countrymen from absolute rule by any king, be he English or Norman. But this long-standing rivalry between Robin and the crown is soon overshadowed by a more dangerous enemy - a foe from the outside who threatens William's entire kingdom, including the way of life of Robin's own England, a life that was largely preserved under Norman rule. This foreign threat sets in motion an explosive set of adventures as Robin engages in fierce sea battles, secret undercover operations behind enemy lines, and bloody saber skirmishes with fresh troops from the French Army. And throughout it all, whether supporting him by his side or defending their home from the royal brutes back in England, his wife, Marian, emerges as a powerful ally, united with Robin in their last heroic efforts to save their people. Robin and the King triumphs as a masterpiece of both history and legend. Employing popular myth as well as historical detail, Parke Godwin has expertly placed the sto

Download or read book Myth and National Identity in Nineteenth Century Britain written by Stephanie Barczewski and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2000-03-02 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholars have become increasingly interested in how modern national consciousness comes into being through fictional narratives. Literature is of particular importance to this process, for it is responsible for tracing the nations evolution through glorious tales of its history. In nineteenth-century Britain, the legends of King Arthur and Robin Hood played an important role in construction of contemporary national identity. These two legends provide excellent windows through which to view British culture, because they provide very different perspectives. King Arthur and Robin Hood have traditionally been diametrically opposed in terms of their ideological orientation. The former is a king, a man at the pinnacle of the social and political hierarchy, whereas the latter is an outlaw, and is therefore completely outside conventional hierarchical structures. The fact that two such different figures could simultaneously function as British national heroes suggests that nineteenth-century British nationalism did not represent a single set of values and ideas, but rather that it was forced to assimilate a variety of competing points of view.

Book excerpt: In the valley of a beautiful mountain, surrounded by a dark forest, there lies a mysterious village. Everyone born in this village is assigned a specific purpose at birth, and no one is ever burdened by the question of what to do with their lives. Everyone's purpose is predestined, and each life weaves perfectly in with the others, forming a harmonious, self-sustaining society. Counseled by three "guides," who can see the destiny of each person born in the village, no one ever questions their role in the community. Everyone identifies fully with their life's task, and for centuries, perfect balance and harmony prevail, as if bestowed by the forces of the universe. Until one day a child is born. A boy who does not speak. His behavior is perplexing and unusual, and his purpose is unknown. He does not fit into the community and as he grows older, the harmony in the village mysteriously begins to dissolve. People begin to lose track of their tasks as if bewitched, and for the first time, the guides are blind. Ominous sounds begin to emerge from the surrounding forest, and the village is on the brink of collapse. Surely, the boy is at fault. To restore balance, the village faces an unthinkable decision.
