Ivanhoe

Ivanhoe is the story of a remaining Saxon noble family in an England whose nobility is overwhelmingly Norman, and of Wilfrid of Ivanhoe, out of favour with his father for courting Lady Rowena and serving King Richard. The year is 1194, Crusaders still returning, Locksley in the greenwood, Isaac of York and his daughter Rebecca in a kingdom that uses them ill. Scott’s romance of tournament, castle, and forest helped to invent the Middle Ages for the modern reader.
