Whereas<br \/>\nmost families couldn\u2019t afford books or poems, a large audience could afford to attend a show. The<br \/>\nPantomime tradition was one that could entertain the whole family, with comedy for adults and kids;<br \/>\nmuch like Disney today.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Robinhood in Winter<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Throughout most texts, Robin Hood takes place in the sunny forests in springtime, but there is a<br \/>\nwhole other world of Robin Hood set during Christmas time. These texts are poems, short stories, comic<br \/>\nbooks, or works of art.<\/p>\n<p>~This lecture is a part of Dr. Kaufman\u2019s upcoming research book to be sent to the press next December.
