In this passage, the sheriff of nottingham punishes three brothers for the crime of hunting for food in the king’s forest. "so," quoth [the sheriff of nottingham], in a great, loud, angry voice, "ye have been poaching upon the king's deer, have you? now i will make short work of you this day, for i will hang up all three of you as a farmer would hang up three crows to scare others of the kind from the field. our fair county of nottingham hath been too long a breeding place for such naughty knaves as you are. i have put up with these things for many years, but now i will stamp them out once for all, and with you i will begin.“ the merry adventures of robin hood, howard pyle how is the sheriff of nottingham an example of an archetype? a)he is a villain because acts with cruelty. b)he is a hero because he is victorious. c)he is a sage because he instructs the young. d)he is a rebel because he acts according to his own moral code.

The correct answer is A.

The Sheriff of  Nottingham is the atchetype of villan in this story.

The Sheriff is the man responsible for puting a bounty on Robin's head and declaring him an outlaw for killing his cousing and poaching the king's deer.

He serves as an archetype of villan because he is a vicious, cruel man who often takes advantage of those under his jurisdiction. His mission is to stop Robin, the protagonist, and his Merry Man from achieving their goal. And he represents Robin's moral foil: his vice is money and power, whereas Robin only steals from the rich to give to the poor and has no interest in status and power.

He is a villan because acts with cruelty

Explanation:

I just did this on ed-genuity :)

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
