    Alice
    Hello and welcome to 6 Minute English. I’m Alice…

    Neil
    … and I’m Neil. Hello.

    Alice
    Hello, Neil. Now what do you know about Robin Hood?

    Neil
    OK. Well, he wore green tights…

    Alice
    Yes, he did.

    Neil
    He was good at archery… he had a girlfriend called Maid Marion. He was English – although he sometimes he has an American accent in Hollywood films.

    Alice
    Yes.

    Neil
    There was a great Disney cartoon series using animal characters. Robin and Maid Marion were foxes.

    Alice
    Anything else? What about being an outlaw or criminal? Heroically fighting against injustice and corruption?

    Neil
    Oh yeah, there’s all that stuff as well – robbing the rich and giving to the poor. Yes, yeah… he lived in Sherwood Forest with a band of merry men.

    Alice
    Yes, he did. OK, it sounds like you’ve watched a lot of TV and film versions but haven’t read the literature.

    Neil
    Oh, come on, Alice! Have you read the literature?

    Alice
    Yes I have. I studied English at university and one of my specialist subjects was medieval literature. The Middle Ages or medieval period lasted in Europe from the 5th to the 15th century.

    Neil
    I see. And I’m guessing that Robin Hood is the subject of today’s show?

    Alice
    Absolutely. You’re right! So here’s a question for you, Neil: When do we find the first reference to Robin Hood in English literature? Was it in the…
    a) 5th century?
    b) 10th century?
    Or c) 14th century?

    Neil
    Well, I’m going to go for the middle one – and that’s b) 10th century.

    Alice
    OK. Well, we’ll find out if you’re right or wrong later on. Now, why do you think the stories of Robin Hood have lasted from the Middle Ages through to the modern day?

    Neil
    Well, I suppose it’s got appeal on lots of levels – action, adventure – there’s some comedy stuff there with the merry men. And of course, romance, like I said before.

    Alice
    Yes, indeed. Actually the early versions of Robin Hood were very violent. Let’s listen to Professor Thomas Hahn talk about one of the ballads called The Monk.

    INSERT
    Thomas Hahn, Professor of English Literature at the University of Rochester, New York
    The Monk is, I think for most modern audiences who’ve either seen movies or read children’s stories or whatever, quite disturbing in terms of its levels of violence. In terms of trying to make some comparisons with popular culture it seems to me that it’s really at the level of Sopranos in terms of things like dismembered bodies and actual violence and assassinations.

    Neil
    What’s a ballad, Alice?

    Alice
    Well, It’s a song or poem that tells a story. People were telling the stories of Robin Hood for a long time before they were written down – and performing them too.

    Neil
    Really? And how about the comparison between the Robin Hood ballads and the Sopranos? Now The Sopranos is a popular US TV series about gangsters. Maybe I should get The Monk on audiobook. What do you think?

    Alice
    Yes, I don’t think you’d find it disturbing – disturbing means making you feel upset or shocked. Assassinations are the murder of important people, often for political reasons. And dismembered bodies are bodies that have been cut or torn into pieces.

    Neil
    Right. It sounds like medieval entertainment for guys. You know, like martial arts movies these days.

    Alice
    Well, yes, you may be right. Now do you remember you mentioned Maid Marion at the start of the show?

    Neil
    I do.

    Alice
    Well, actually, in the early ballads there is no Maid Marian. She appears in later versions along with other characters we know well today. But Robin is always a trickster, and a man with a bow in a wood.

    Neil
    A trickster is someone who deceives or cheats people. That’s impressive, Alice. You certainly know your medieval ballads.

    Alice
    Yes, I do. So what’s so appealing about this man with a bow? Let’s listen to Professor Hahn again.

    INSERT
    Thomas Hahn, Professor of English Literature at the University of Rochester, New York
    What he represents I think is a kind of strong and forceful masculinity that operates on its own terms and for its own interests and that’s I think what we admire in these stories.

    Neil
    What does it mean to operate on your own terms, Alice?

    Alice
    Well, Neil, it means to do what you want according to your own rules. And masculinity means the qualities typical of a man. Now, remember my question from earlier? I asked: When do we find the first reference to Robin Hood in English literature? Was it in the…
    a) 5th century?
    b) 10th century?
    Or c) 14th century?

    Neil
    And I said b) 10th century.

    Alice
    Yes, well… I’m afraid you are wrong, Neil. The first reference occurs in the English poet William Langland’s book Piers Plowman written between 1370 and 1390. Sloth, the lazy priest, says: “I kan not parfitly my Paternoster as the preest it singeth,/ But I kan rymes of Robyn Hood and Randolf Erl of Chestre.”

    Neil
    Well, Alice, can you translate that into modern English, please? Maybe that’s for another show.

    Alice
    Maybe another show…

    Neil
    Can we just have today’s words again, please?

    Alice
    We certainly can. And we can have those in modern English. OK. Here they are:
    outlaw
    medieval period or Middle Ages
    ballad
    disturbing
    assassinations
    dismembered bodies
    trickster
    operate on your own terms
    masculinity

    Neil
    Well, that brings us to the end of today’s 6 Minute English. We hope you enjoyed today’s walk in the woods. Please do join us again soon.

    Both
    Bye.
    То, что он представляет, я думаю, является своего рода сильной и сильной мужественностью, которая действует на своих собственных условиях и для своих собственных интересов, и я думаю, что мы восхищаемся в этих историях.

    Нил
    Что значит действовать на своих условиях, Алиса?

    Алиса
    Ну, Нил, это значит делать то, что ты хочешь в соответствии со своими правилами. А мужественность означает качества, типичные для человека. Теперь помните мой вопрос из ранее? Я спросил: когда мы находим первую ссылку на Робин Гуда в английской литературе? Это было в ...
    а) 5 век?
    б) 10 век?
    Или в) 14 век?

    Нил
    И я сказал б) 10 век.

    Алиса
    Да, хорошо ... Боюсь, ты ошибаешься, Нил. Первое упоминание встречается в книге английского поэта Уильяма Лэнгланда «Пирс-пахарь», написанной между 1370 и 1390 годами. Ленивый священник говорит: «Я не могу сказать, что мой Патерностер, как священник, которого он поет», / Но я знаю, что Робин Гуд и Рэндольф Эрл из Честре.

    Нил
    Ну, Алиса, ты можешь перевести это на современный английский, пожалуйста? Может быть, это для другого шоу.

    Алиса
    Может быть, еще одно шоу ...

    Нил
    Можем ли мы просто повторить сегодняшние слова, пожалуйста?

    Алиса
    Мы, конечно, можем. И у нас могут быть те на современном английском языке. ХОРОШО. Они здесь:
    вне закона
    средневековый период или средневековье
    баллада
    тревожный
    заказные убийства
    расчлененные тела
    обманщик
    работать на своих условиях
    мужественность

    Нил
    Что ж, это подводит нас к концу сегодняшнего 6-минутного английского. Мы надеемся, что вам понравилась сегодняшняя прогулка в лесу. Пожалуйста, присоединяйтесь к нам снова в ближайшее время.

    Обе
    До свидания.
