Robin Hood: An Atrocious Act Of Behavior
Being different was considered an atrocious act of behavior for quite a while. Those that are different than most in anyway were shunned and ran off usually by a mob. Robin Hood was very different than most in his village as a result he was chased away by a very violent mob. After running as far as his feet would take him that day his mission now was shelter for the night. He thought he was all alone in the woods since he was disowned no one followed. He thought this until he heard a vicious snarl. Being a skilled hunter, he grabbed his bow and his arrow, but after seeing it was Bigfoot and there was no threat he mounted his bow on his back. Enjoying each others company and being thankful they were not alone they sat and talked. Bigfoot

    Both Geoffrey Chaucer in “The Pardoners Tale” and Sam Raimi in the film “A Simple Plan” composed moral tales exploring the concept of greed and corruption. Both composers suggest that a person’s good morals can be easily corrupted by the power of greed; both composers explore the fatal consequences of greed and corruption which affirms the importance of a morally sound society. However, Chaucer, composing in a medieval context communicates that greed and corruption may be fostered by a lack of material comfort or wealth suggesting that moral standing comes from deep, religious foundation while Raimi composing within a contemporary timeframe, conveys when physical conditions are inadequate, the temptation to be greedy is increased, this saying that moral code formed in a secular society where the boundaries can shift according to the situation. The study of both the differences and the similarities between these texts is essential in achieving an understanding of these issues explored.…

    In this bustling world, everyone is born with responsibility. We have the obligation and duty to satisfactorily complete each of the tasks that comes across us. In all the texts that had been covered in this semester, it seems that “Mockingjay” has provided relatively easier and comparable examples about responsibility. In this novel, the author’s idea of being an accountable person should make decisions to serve themselves as well as others. Besides, the writer emphasizes that it is very important for us to keep a balance between taking accountability for oneself and others. In order to become more successful, we should learn our own limitations and be responsible for ourselves before we can be responsible for others.…

    Hello my name is and like most people I get bored sometimes, not because of a lack of ideas but because of a lack of money. But what if money wasn't a factor and you could do and have done everything within the rules that worldly possessions can afford you? Whoever this person is, they most undoubtedly would not gain the same pleasure from activities that you or I would. This is the main theme of the remake of the 1968 movie The Thomas Crown Affair. The original Thomas Crown Affair was written by Alan Trustman and directed by Norman Jewison who also did In the heat of the night and the 2003 movie The Statement. It starred Steve McQueen as the Financer, Thomas Crown, and Faye Dunaway as an insurance investigator counterpart to Crown, Viki…

    The legend of Robin Hood has been around for nearly one thousand years. For the past several hundred years, Robin and his Merry Men have been known for stealing from the rich, particularly tax collectors, and giving to the poor; however, because this is still stealing and Robin had also killed at least one of the king’s deer, Robin and his men were known as outlaws. While they may have been outlaws, Robin Hood and his Merry Men were more like knights in the way that they dealt honorably with opponents in battle, defended the weak and helpless, and protected women and children.…

    There are six sins that can keep you from going to heaven if committed. These sins include gluttony, envy, pride, laziness, anger and lechery. Greed can blind a man to taking the evil path and thinking it is the right one. It can also make it hard to differentiate between right and wrong. The Pardoner’s Tale by Geoffrey Chaucer is a tale showing gluttony taking the life of three so called faithful friends. The desire for money and wealth makes one discourteous, greedy and sinful as portrayed by the three friends stabbing each other in the back. These three men got their share of consequences accordingly to their unmannerly behavior. The first act will show the three rioters coming to ignorant conclusions while being drunk. The next act will show how the three companions act with the old man. Then the last act will show how the greediness for treasure and wealth takes over the three companions and makes them stab one another in the back.…

    Robin Hood Case Study

    Robin Hood is facing numerous problems and issues, but I think the most pressing problem is the fact that the band of Merrymen has far outgrown the available resources in Sherwood Forest. Robin Hood’s faith in succeeding by strength in numbers is quickly becoming a contributor to their downfall. Income is low at this point as well, so purchasing supplies, whether near or far, will soon become impossible. If the men aren’t fed, the men can’t function. Not only is the lack of available resources a problem, but the group itself is unorganized and is lacking sufficient leadership. The issue of the group’s decline in vigilance and discipline could lead to dire consequences, especially with the Sheriff actively searching for the band’s weaknesses, and this needs to be resolved immediately.…

    Tensions were probably already heightened because of the ruling elites’ misuse of their resources. They treated the workers poorly and made promises they could not keep. “Easter’s chiefs and priests had previously justified their elite status by claiming relationship to the gods, and by promising to deliver prosperity and bountiful harvests.” This system of belief was generated by creating false appearances designed to impress the masses. Elaborate ceremonies, grand buildings, and an abundance of food were utilized in this charade. Where did the materials come from? They were extracted from the workers and the commoners. Hmm…sounds familiar. Krugman’s example of “Robin Hood in Reverse” is certainly applicable here. America’s wealthy elite and…

    I agree with what you said, Emily. What TS Eliot calls stealing, is actually the similarities between poems that occur by coincidence. When mature poets borrow things from another poem, they enhance it until it is not recognizable as the same poem. Immature poets end up creating a similar imitation of the poem, instead of making it better. I think that the best poets do not try to "steal" anyone else's work, they create their own poems. Poets should only use other poems to inspire them if they plan to alter enough so that you can't make an immediate connection between the two…

Strategy directs firms towards their overall goals and objectives with both short-term and long-term perspectives. What strategic problems does Robin Hood have Robin is concerned with his bands rapidly increasing growth, the decrease in revenues, rise in cost, and the state of his campaign. Robin must consider moving his operation, because Sherwood Forest may be too small. Another issue to address is what to do about the growing forces of the Sheriff. Robin also needs to consider his thoughts and come to a decision. Should he kill the sheriff Should he join forces with the baron to free King Richard Should he impose tax to increase revenues What is the role of the organizational leader as strategist and articulator of global goals A leader must be proactive, anticipate change, and continuously improve the established strategies. He must lead the analysis, decision-making, and implementation of actions to create sustainable competitive advantages that lead to success. In Robin Hoods case, he may need to change his organizational strategy. His strategy worked in that he was able to recruit many men from all over England, however with the rapid growth and unable to accommodate all of them in Sherwood Forest, Robin must reevaluate his strategy of steal from the rich and give to the poor.

The opinion of numerous common folk would have persuaded Prince John to change the law of unfair taxation.…
