Answer 1

Above answer by - Blaise Doughan is completely correct

Another simple way is , even if you don't write the - @XmlElementWrapper

 private List keywords;

 @XmlElementWrapper
    @XmlElement(name="keyword")
    public List getKeywords() {
        return keywords;
    }

You can use it this way - write the XmlAccessorType on Class level , then XML element name will be same as the class member name - keywords

import java.util.List;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.*;

@XmlRootElement
@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
public class Content {

    private List keywords;

    public Content() {}


    public List getKeywords() {
        return keywords;
    }

    public void setKeywords(List keywords) {
        this.keywords = keywords;
    }  

}
