Krátky popis
Ivanhoe is the story of one of the remaining Saxon noble families
at a time when the English nobility was overwhelmingly Norman. It
follows the Saxon protagonist, Wilfrid of Ivanhoe, who is out of
favour with his father owing to his courting the Lady Rowena and
for his allegiance to the Norman king Richard I of England. The
story is set in 1194, after the end of the Third Crusade, when many
of the Crusaders were still returning to Europe. King Richard,
having been captured by the Duke of Saxony, on his way back, was
still supposed to be in the arms of his captors. The legendary
Robin Hood, initially under the name of Locksley, is also a
character in the story, as are his 'merry men,' including Friar
Tuck and, less so, Alan-a-Dale. (Little John is merely mentioned.)
The character that Scott gave to Robin Hood in Ivanhoe helped shape
the modern notion of this figure as a cheery noble outlaw.Other
major characters include Ivanhoe's intractable Saxon father Cedric,
a descendant of the Saxon King Harold Godwinson; various Knights
Templar and churchmen; the loyal serfs Gurth the swineherd and the
jester Wamba, whose observations punctuate much of the action; and
the Jewish moneylender, Isaac of York, equally passionate of money
and his daughter, Rebecca. The book was written and published
during a period of increasing struggle for Emancipation of the Jews
in England, and there are frequent references to injustice against
them.
