Summary "Richard Lejonhjerta i historien och poesin: Akademisk afhandling" by Carl Gustaf Estlander is an academic thesis written in the mid-19th century. The work analyzes the historical and poetic representations of King Richard the Lionheart, contrasting him with other figures of English folklore, notably Robin Hood. Estlander's exploration highlights the impact of these characters on the national identity of the Normans and Anglo-Saxons during the medieval period. The opening of the thesis sets the stage for a complex examination of Richard the Lionheart's portrayals in both historical narratives and literary works. Estlander begins by discussing the stark contrasts between Richard, the noble king engaged in the Crusades, and Robin Hood, the outlaw fighting for the oppressed. He asserts that both figures represent the spirit of their respective peoples—the Normans and Anglo-Saxons—and notes how their dual representations in history and poetry contribute to England's cultural landscape. In this preliminary section, Estlander outlines his goals to evaluate Richard's influence, the poetic interpretations of his character, and the social conditions that shaped these narratives.
