Ivanhoe
'Ivanhoe' Summary
Ivanhoe, a young Saxon knight, faces a complex web of loyalties in Norman England. Torn between his love for Rowena, a noble Saxon woman, and the affections of the disguised Lady Rebecca, a Jewish woman, Ivanhoe embarks on a journey of self-discovery. Amidst the backdrop of King Richard's return from the Crusades and the brewing conflict between Saxons and Normans, Ivanhoe's courage and chivalry are tested. He joins a band of outlaws led by the legendary Robin Hood, fighting for justice and the rights of the oppressed. Ivanhoe's story is interwoven with the themes of love, honor, and identity, as he navigates a world of political intrigue, courtly romance, and medieval warfare.Book Details
