The Bad Boy of Sherwood Forest

From the May 21 New York Times, a consideration of the image of Robin Hood in the movies via newly released DVDs. Dave Kehr writes about prior Robin Hoods as Ridley Scott, Russell Crowe and Cate Blanchett reimagine the olde, olde story.

The website Shadows of Sherwood has links to Robin Hood in Literature. Here is information about the real and mythic Robin, from about.com and more material about the Robin Hood legend, including links to texts, from the Robin Hood Pages.
