"Ivanhoe" by Walter Scott is a historical novel published in 1819. Set in 12th-century England, it tells the story of Saxon knight Wilfred of Ivanhoe, disinherited for his loyalty to Norman King Richard the Lionheart and his forbidden love for Lady Rowena. The novel weaves together vivid scenes of medieval tournaments, outlaws, and the tensions between Saxons and Normans, Jews and Christians. This influential work sparked renewed fascination with chivalry and the Middle Ages, shaping popular images of King Richard, Prince John, and Robin Hood for generations to come.
