The gallant figure of highwayman has seduced women for ages.
Alfred Noyes may have made the female protagonist the hero in "The Highwayman" to challenge traditional gender roles and honor the bravery and loyalty of the character. By portraying Bess as the one who ultimately saves the highwayman with her sacrifice, Noyes may have wanted to highlight the strength and agency of women in literature.
