Robin Hood is less about class, and more about power. (Of course in it's setting, class was defined by power)

- lotharbot 15y agoMore explicitly stated: Robin Hood did not "rob from the rich and give to the poor". He attacked oppressors and protected the oppressed (only rarely giving them money). While the oppressors tended to be rich and the oppressed tended to be poor, there were exceptions. IIRC, there is even a tale where Robin protects a wealthy knight from peasants who are trying to rob him.
