"Ivanhoe (3/4)" by Walter Scott is a historical novel published in 1819. Set in 12th-century England during the reign of Richard the Lionheart, the story follows the Saxon knight Wilfred of Ivanhoe, disinherited for his loyalty to the Norman king. Amid tournaments, outlaws, and bitter divisions between Normans and Saxons, Jews and Christians, Ivanhoe navigates a world of chivalry, danger, and forbidden love. This influential romance helped shape popular perceptions of medieval England and legendary figures like Robin Hood. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
