The virtual conference was hosted by Richmond American International University and the University of Hull from Dec. 3-5.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EThe paper, titled \u0026ldquo;Bavaria\u0026#39;s Robin Hood,\u0026rdquo; focuses on the current status of Robin Hood, whose modest fictional origins are in medieval rural England, as a global super-signifier referenced by all other global outlaw stories. Utz further argues that the predominance of Robin Hood for outlaw narratives around the world demonstrates the predominance of Anglo-American economic, military, and cultural influence.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EIn the paper, Utz cites the case of Matthias Klostermayr, a well-known 18th-century Bavarian outlaw figure. The Klostermayr example shows that those who make the comparison with the English outlaw do not distinguish between the medieval, early modern, and modern iterations of the Robin Hood narrative. Instead, they use the super-outlaw\u0026#39;s global reputation in an attempt to increase attention to a regional figure.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"The paper, titled \u201cBavaria\u0027s Robin Hood,\u201d focuses on the current status of Robin Hood, whose modest fictional origins are in medieval rural England."}],"uid":"36009","created_gmt":"2021-12-09 15:55:33","changed_gmt":"2022-01-25 02:51:32","author":"cwhittle9","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2021-12-09T00:00:00-05:00","iso_date":"2021-12-09T00:00:00-05:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"653551":{"id":"653551","type":"image","title":"Powerpoint slide from the \u0022Bavaria\u0027s Robin Hood\u0022 presenation.","body":null,"created":"1639065687","gmt_created":"2021-12-09 16:01:27","changed":"1639065687","gmt_changed":"2021-12-09 16:01:27","alt":"","file":{"fid":"247879","name":"Buzz Article Resizing.jpeg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/Buzz%20Article%20Resizing_0.jpeg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/Buzz%20Article%20Resizing_0.jpeg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":97567,"path_740":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/Buzz%20Article%20Resizing_0.jpeg?itok=YtA6_Xb7"}}},"media_ids":["653551"],"groups":[{"id":"1283","name":"School of Literature, Media, and Communication"},{"id":"648414","name":"_OLD: Ivan Allen College \u0022The Buzz\u0022"},{"id":"611608","name":"Global Media and Cultures (GMC)"}],"categories":[{"id":"134","name":"Student and Faculty"}],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ECassidy Chreene Whittle\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nCommunications Officer\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nSchool of Literature, Media, and Communication | School of Modern Languages\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:cwhittle9@gatech.edu\u0022\u003Ecwhittle9@gatech.edu\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
