Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - 'Ivanhoe: A Romance' is a cornerstone of historical fiction that vividly reimagines 12th-century England. Set in the aftermath of the Third Crusade, the narrative follows the noble Wilfred of Ivanhoe, a Saxon knight who has been disinherited by his father for his allegiance to the Norman King Richard the Lionheart. As Ivanhoe returns home in disguise, he is thrust into a world of political intrigue, bitter rivalries between Saxons and Normans, and the pageantry of medieval chivalry.The story unfolds through legendary events, including the grand tournament at Ashby-de-la-Zouch and the dramatic siege of Torquilstone. Sir Walter Scott masterfully weaves historical figures with fictional icons, introducing readers to the heroic outlaw Locksley-later known as Robin Hood-and the complex characters of the beautiful Rowena and the courageous Rebecca. Through themes of honor, justice, and religious tension, the work explores the blending of cultures that shaped the English nation.As one of the most influential works of the 19th century, 'Ivanhoe: A Romance' remains a thrilling adventure filled with knights, outlaws, and the timeless struggle for identity and reconciliation. Its enduring popularity stems from its rich atmosphere and its role in popularizing the romanticized image of the Middle Ages.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
