This cutting-edge volume demonstrates both the literary quality and the socio-economic importance of works on "the matter of the greenwood" over a long chronological period. These include drama texts, prose literature and novels (among them, children's literature), and poetry. Whilst some of these are anonymous, others are by acknowledged canonical writers such as William Shakespeare, Ben Jonson, and John Keats. The editors and the contributors argue that it is vitally important to include Robin Hood texts in the canon of English literary works, because of the high quality of many of these texts, and because of their significance in the development of English literature.
Last year, Americans donated $150 billion to charity. Giving has never been more popular, possible—or, for many, more confusing. There are oceans of need, mountains of requests, and often little time for the consideration needed to give thoughtfully and effectively. "Change, not charity!" is this book’s enthusiastic theme. Long-time activists and givers, authors Chuck Collins and Pam Rogers show that traditional charity most often reinforces the status quo and maintains the dynamics of dependency and control. The progressive ethic of giving endorsed in this book, on the other hand, offers detailed ways to address the root causes of societal problems. With numerous organizational listings and hundreds of helpful suggestions, Robin Hood Was Right is a fun, user-friendly guide for the socially conscious giver, whether one is able to give annually $500 or $5,000,000.
The Robin Hood tradition is best known in popular forms such as ballad, lyric, play, children's story and, in our own era, television and film. There have, however, also been a significant number of novelists who have devoted themselves to retelling and reshaping the story. In particular, the nineteenth century provided some classical fictional reformulations of the outlaw saga, in which the hero and his activities were re-interpreted in ways relating to the concerns and values of the period. Robin appears, for instance, as a Gothic adventurer, a romantic hero, a lost heir, a precursor of Baden-Powell, and even as a loyal servant of parliamentary democracy in its alleged origin. The substantial novels that embody these conceptions of the outlaw are little known, and quite unavailable until now. This collection reprints these nineteenth-century texts and in doing so re-establishes for scholars and readers a largely lost element of the remarkably rich and ever-popular myth.

When young Robin Fitzooth sets out to visit his uncle the Squire, the path leads through the Forest of Nottingham. There in the woodlands he encounters a band of outlaws headed by Will o' th' Green, and the course of his life is forever changed. Robin wants to be the King's Forester, Ranger of Locksley, like his father, and the Squire offers to make him heir to the riches of Gamewell Hall. But the greed and jealousy of the Sheriff of Nottingham and the foul deeds of Prince John's evil minions combine to cheat Robin of his patrimony, driving him toward the fellowship of the greenwood, where bandits live a life of freedom.Generations of Creswick's young readers have thrilled to the daring adventures of Robin Hood and his circle, who steal only from the rich and give generously to the poor. Readers of all ages will savor these tales, which trace the champion archer's recruitment of his merry men, their clashes with the corrupt Sheriff, and their heroic exploits, from spirited jousting and other tests of skill and strength to suspenseful rescues of the oppressed and falsely accused. Teeming with memorable characters, excitement, and romance, this is a wonderful retelling of an enduring legend.
Robben Island prison in South Africa held thousands of black political prisoners, including Nelson Mandela, who opposed apartheid. This book reconstructs the inmates’ resistance strategies to show how these men created a political and social order behind bars. Survival was their first goal; challenging apartheid was their true aim. So although Robben Island was designed to repress, it was continually transformed by its political inmates into a site of resistance. The book theorizes that, where material conditions permit, the most far-reaching and effective forms of resistance involve constructive political action which seeks to remake existing power relationships. This theory is demonstrated in three focuses of the book: the activism of Robben Islanders, the effects of political prisoner resistance on the apartheid state machinery, and in comparative cases which illustrate various international instances of political prisoners shaping both prisons and political orders.
Robbing the Jews reveals the mechanisms by which the Nazis and their allies confiscated Jewish property; the book demonstrates the close relationship between robbery and the Holocaust. The spoliation evolved in intensifying steps. The Anschluss and Kristallnacht in 1938 reveal a dynamic tension between pressure from below and state-directed measures. In Western Europe, the economic persecution of the Jews took the form of legal decrees and administrative measures. In Eastern Europe, authoritarian governments adopted the Nazi program that excluded Jews from the economy and seized their property, based on indigenous antisemitism and plans for ethnically homogenous nation-states. In the occupied East, property was collected at the killing sites - the most valuable objects were sent to Berlin, whereas items of lesser value supported the local administration and rewarded collaborators. At several key junctures, robbery acted as a catalyst for genocide, accelerating the progression from pogrom to mass murder.

An exciting new story in the Twice Upon a Time series from Wendy Mass Robin has a bad habit of getting into trouble -- and a better habit of getting out of it (barely). He lives on an isolated outpost in the middle of nowhere and has no idea why his parents disappeared years ago. Then a strange delivery arrives at his doorstep, and the past is suddenly very present. Marian was raised to be a very powerless girl in a very powerful family. But that hasn't stopped her from making her own adventures -- and trespassing in some places her parents definitely don't want her to see. She has no idea what life would be like outside of her home -- until a mysterious invitation forces her to leave everything behind. Robin and Marian have lived very different lives in very different places. Their paths should never, ever cross -- but before they know it, they are thrown together on a quest that requires legendary bravery, quick-witted escapes, and the ability to . . . get along with each other.The sky's no longer the limit on what Robin and Marian can do -- as long as they manage to do it together.
