A fictional story of one of the last Saxon noble families in medieval England when most of the nobles lines were Norman. Ivanhoe is returning from the Crusades and must readjust to life in England where his King has been captured by the Austrians and outlaws due to the tyrannical reign of Prince John are running rampant. The modern story of Robin Hood and his Merry Men owes many ideas to this novel and as well concepts such as the Knights Templar and corrupt clergy all give us a rich background to read and study this work.

Autorenporträt
Sir Walter Scott (1771 - 1832) was a Scottish historical novelist, playwright and poet with many contemporary readers in Europe, Australia and North America. Scott's novels and poetry are still read and many of his works remain classics of both English-language literature and of Scottish literature. Famous titles include Ivanhoe, Rob Roy, Old Mortality, The Lady of the Lake, Waverley, The Heart of Midlothian and The Bride of Lammermoor. Although primarily remembered for his extensive literary works and his political engagement, Scott was an advocate, judge and legal administrator by profession and throughout his career combined his writing and editing work with his daily occupation as Clerk of Session and Sheriff-Depute of Selkirkshire.
