QR code
"Ivanhoe" by Walter Scott is a historical novel published in December 1819. Set in 12th-century England during King Richard's captivity, it follows the disinherited Saxon knight Wilfred of Ivanhoe, caught between Norman rulers and Saxon heritage. The story weaves together a grand tournament, the conflict between his father's wishes and his love for Lady Rowena, dangerous outlaws, and the persecution of Jews. Featuring Robin Hood, treacherous Templar knights, and a kingdom in
turmoil, this tale of chivalry and divided loyalties sparked widespread fascination with medieval romance across Europe. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
