Abstract: "Exploring the nature of historical and fictional outlaws, these twelve critical essays survey the literary, historical and cultural environments that produced them. Divided into three parts, the text recovers the historical records of real outlaws and the representation of Jews in medieval Britain as possible outlaws, outlaws associated specifically with Wales, and the popular figure of Robin Hood"--Provided by publisher.
