| | Ivanhoe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Ivanhoe is a novel by Sir Walter Scott. | | | He is nursed by Rebecca, daughter of Isaac the Jew, but there can never be a romance between them, partly because of her religion and partly because Ivanhoe is already betrothed to the Saxon Rowena, his childhood love. | | | The legendary Robin Hood, under the title of Locksley, is also a character in the story, and the character Scott gave him in Ivanhoe shaped the modern idea of Robin Hood, the cheery noble outlaw. |

| | Rebecca's love for Ivanhoe is in conflict with her good sense; she knows that they can never marry (he is a Christian and she is a Jew), but she is drawn to him nonetheless. | | | Ivanhoe is in love with his father's ward, the beautiful Rowena. | | | Ivanhoe and Rowena are prevented from marrying until the end of the book because Cedric would rather see Rowena married to Athelstane--a match that could reawaken the Saxon royal line. |

| | Besides, Ivanhoe's romance with Lady Rowena is one of the interesting parts of the whole storyline. | | | Rebecca, a vibrant, beautiful Jewish woman is defended by Ivanhoe against a charge of witchcraft--but it is Lady Rowena who is Ivanhoe's true love. | | | What is unique about this books is that Sir Ivanhoe combines alliance with Robin Hood (originally Sir Robert of Locksley) to fight against Prince John and free King Richard the Lion-Hearted from Tirol. |

| | Ivanhoe |
| | The novel begins with Ivanhoe's return to England, where Prince John is plotting to depose his brother Richard, who has been taken captive in Austria on his way home from the Crusades. | | | For his other historical novels he had been able to rely on his knowledge of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and his expert rendering of the Scots vernacular had made his novels convincing. | | | Rebecca, stifling her love for Ivanhoe, accompanies her father to Spain, where they hope to find a more tolerant society. |

| | Ivanhoe by Sir Walter Scott : Arthur's Classic Novels |
| | The poem of John the Reeve, or Steward, mentioned by Bishop Percy, in the Reliques of English Poetry, is said to have turned on such an incident; and we have besides, the King and the Tanner of Tamworth, the King and the Miller of Mansfield, and others on the same topic. | | | But, not to mention that the prejudices of the age rendered such an union almost impossible, the author may, in passing, observe, that he thinks a character of a highly virtuous and lofty stamp, is degraded rather than exalted by an attempt to reward virtue with temporal prosperity. | | | But the peculiar tale of this nature to which the author of Ivanhoe has to acknowledge an obligation, is more ancient by two centuries than any of these last mentioned. |

| | Beyond restoring Saxon glory, Ivanhoe's potential rewards include the affection of his estranged father (Finlay Currie), plus the love of either fair Lady Rowena (Joan Fontaine) or Isaac's daughter Rebecca, played by the supernaturally beautiful Elizabeth Taylor, age 20. | | | In 1952 MGM gave its epic Technicolor treatment to Sir Walter Scott's 1819 novel of knights and chivalric love in the age of King John and Robin Hood. | | | And he befriends Isaac, a Jewish moneylender with reason enough to distrust Saxons and Normans alike. |

| | The dialogue is stilted, not to say unbelievable; the characters are wooden, and that Ivanhoe should prefer the snobbish Rowena to the lovely and talented Rebecca is absurd. | | | This seemed a rousing romantic tale when I read it many years ago, but it now seems rather cumbersome. | | | Not only are they placing bets as to who the knights in disguise are; they are also interested in learning more about the time period and including information about Ivanhoe and Sir Walter Scott in their journals. |
