Robin Hood

Option 2
The figure of the outlaws has been a recurrent topic in literature worldwide. These outlaws (the ones that appear in literature, not every single outlaw) are basically people who committed a crime that is unfairly punished. As an example, we have Robin Hood. Robin Hood is perhaps one of the most famous outlaws in literature. This character came straight from England in the Middle Age. Robin Hood is famous because he robbed the rich to help the poor people. He was also a skilled warrior.
Now, why was Robin Hood’s figure so attractive? Even today the image of an outlaw, who lived wildly in the forest, got his own means of survival and that so selflessly helped poor people to carry the burden that meant to be a servant, is extremely popular. It may actually be the idea of somebody helping people and putting to the service of others skills that otherwise would easily grant him the power of those he always fought. While the people in the upper levels only cared about them, there was an almost lonely archer and his band that tried to change the situation.
The figure of an outlaw is not exclusive of England. Besides the famous marksman of Nottingham there have been other outlaws that have had wide recognition through the years. Without going too far, I can easily talk about outlaws in this side of the Atlantic. Probably the outlaws in Mexican literature are way less famous than Robin Hood, but they can still be pointed out. A famous example came in the book Los bandidos de Río Frío of Manuel Payno. These bandits tried to fight their poverty by robbing every single person that was a possible victim. Even though these bandits were way less romantic than Robin Hood, they are still outlaws and drew a lot of attention and sympathy in their time.
All of these bandits are possible in every single way. Even thought Robin Hood would certainly be even more sanguinary than the Robin Hood that is depicted in his worst histories, the possibility of a man that helps his people or fights injustice is always there. It is truth that probably anybody that chooses the better path would face worst decisions than the ones that appear in the books, but even with that people will fight against injustice. It has been shown through various revolutions trough the whole world.
