Georgette Stoltenberg · Answer

I remember a good history channel special, and they mentioned that the very first written account of Robin Hood was in passing of a discussion of two comedic characters from Medieval times. He was probably of an old oral tradition. Lots of people are given credit for inspiring Robin Hood, as said outlaws lived in the time the stories were written down, but Robin was probably around befor them.

The character and his adventures changed and evolved both before and after it was first printed.The Merry Gestes of Robin Hood is the oldest ballad which contains material used in other ballads. But one thing it doesn’t contain is steal from the rich and give to the poor. That comes later.Robin Hood was a folk hero. Think of him as embodying the resentments of the lower classes. The stories depict the upper classes as corrupt.For more information see my link in sources.
