Ivanhoe; ossia, Il ritorno del Crociato by Walter Scott
"Ivanhoe; ossia, Il ritorno del Crociato" by Walter Scott is a historical novel published in 1819. Set in 12th-century England, it follows the Saxon knight Wilfred of Ivanhoe, disinherited for his loyalty to Norman King Richard the Lionheart. As Richard remains captive after the Third Crusade, tensions simmer between Saxons and Normans, Jews and Christians. Through tournaments, outlaws, and dangerous rivalries, Ivanhoe navigates a divided realm where chivalry and betrayal intertwine, and
where his forbidden love and allegiances threaten everything he holds dear. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
