Cr�ticas:

"Paul Buhle is my socialist conscience." --Robert Crumb, artist

"Paul Buhle is my socialist conscience." Robert Crumb, artist"

"A thought-provoking study of tales that, whatever their radical credentials may or may not be, is an informative and entertaining examination of an enduring folk hero." "Monthly Review" (May 2012)"

"Paul Buhle is the best informed and most sincere left-wing scholar that I know." Harvey Pekar, artist"

"Buhle takes an unique approach to the examination, alternating between dense essays and lighter graphic summations. It's with this tactic that Buhle's book achieves the very trait it trumpets -- populism." "North Adams Transcript," www.TheTranscript.com, (February 2012)"

"With plenty of art strewn about the writing, "Robin Hood" is a strong addition to any literary studies collection focusing on legends of popular culture." www.MidwestBookReview.com"

Rese�a del editor:

Using a unique blend of text, collage, and comic art, this social commentary written in graphic novel format analyzes the continuity between the myth of Robin Hood and the occurrence of social uprisings among peasants. In addition, the book explores the mysteries, factual evidence, and trajectory that led to centuries of village festivals, songs, films, and cult television shows about the mythical hero who robbed from the rich and gave to the poor. Featuring a collage of various artistic renderings of Robin Hood over the past seven centuries, the comic portion presents a distinct perspective of the folk hero. Furthermore, the book reveals a largely unknown and unconsidered environmental side of Robin Hood, and touches on ecological wholeness that, for the most part, is absent in the mythos.
