Howard Pyle's students and Robin Hood edit
It's worth mentioning that some of the artists who studied with Pyle went on to produce several Robin Hood illustrations of their own: N C Wyeth, Frank Schoonover and Charlotte Harding among them . These show Pyle's influence but are not slavishly imitative. Many of them can be found on Google Images, and three of Harding's are on WikipediA. ( Look out for her image of Robin Hood drawing his bow.) O Murr (talk) 20:38, 21 June 2018 (UTC)
- Thank you for your good suggestion! I will incorporate it into a new "Significance" section. Please see the "Rewrite as book review" section below. --AnalyticalHistoricalHobbyist (talk) 12:59, 31 January 2022 (UTC)
"Old English" idiom is actually based on Middle English! edit
Hi, y'all!!! The reference to "Old English idiom" in the lead just stopped me in my tracks. I'm working on an expansion/revision of A Gest of Robyn Hode, & I have some stuff that I can add a section on Pyle's version of late Middle English. Since I'm pointing here from Gest, I need something to point to. But I can't get to it right away; maybe in early March. Ta-ta! --AnalyticalHistoricalHobbyist (talk) 14:56, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
- UPDATE: Draft of New section "Invented Middle English dialect" has been added. (dialect & idiom are two different things.) Actually, Pyle's dialect looks more Elizabethan (or King James Bible) when compared to the original dialect used in the "Gest". Have to check it out ... --AnalyticalHistoricalHobbyist (talk) 13:32, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
Needs to be re-written as an academic book review edit
Hi, y'all!! I was looking where to insert my paragraphs on Pyle's invented "Middle English" idiom, but I see the article is not written in a book review format. Since I'm here, I will re-organize the existing content accordingly, & then add a separate section for "Significance". Ta-ta for now! --AnalyticalHistoricalHobbyist (talk) 13:14, 31 January 2022 (UTC)
- UPDATE: Adding a "single source" banner here. While updating the citations, I realized that this article relies heavily on only 2 sources (1 being a Robin Hood fan site, which is not identified as such), and inline citations are missing from most of the article. --AnalyticalHistoricalHobbyist (talk) 13:24, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
