The popular heroes of the Middle Ages were semi-mythical figures.
This text explores not only the famous Robin Hood and William
Wallace, but also some now forgotten rogues such as Gamelyn and
Fulke Fitzwarin. Apart from William Wallace, the heroes of the
outlaw legends were not men who played a leading role on the
historical stage. Nevertheless, this book reveals how they were
remembered in tradition for generations. This book explains the
popularity of these figures and looks at how the stories appealed
to the common people of the Middle Ages. The author also discusses
their origins, spirit and background. In this re-issue of "The
Outlaws of Medieval Legend", a new introduction is provided to set
the book in the context of recent work on these characters, The
titles of which are: "England in the Later Middle Ages" (Routledge,
1975); "Heraldry" (Yale UP, 1986) and "Nobles, Knights and Men at
Arms in the Middle Ages" (Hambleden Press, 1996).
