En savoir plus sur le livre

The classic medieval romance Ivanhoe is about the quest of a man to find his identity, restore the Saxon dynasty, and marry his father's ward. In the process he is disinherited, wounded, and falls for a different woman who is ultimately exiled for their forbidden love. Considered radical for its time, Ivanhoe presents themes of freedom, oppression, and social injustice all amidst the background of witty medieval banter, beautiful damsels in distress, and jousting knights on horseback. Scott's 200 year old novel is both poignant and fun, and though language has changed with time the feelings remain incredibly relevant.
