Ivanhoe (2/4) by Walter Scott

"Ivanhoe (2/4)" by Walter Scott is a historical novel published in 1819. Set in 12th-century England during the reign of Richard the Lionheart, this romance follows the Saxon knight Wilfred of Ivanhoe, disinherited for his loyalty to the Norman king and forbidden love for Lady Rowena. Against a backdrop of tournaments, outlaws, and tensions between Normans and Saxons, Jews and Christians, the story weaves together chivalric adventure with complex loyalties and dangerous intrigue. Scott's influential tale helped shape modern perceptions of medieval England and its legendary figures. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
