All editions are beautifully designed and are printed to superior specifications; some include illustrations of historical interest. Barnes & Noble Classics pulls together a constellation of influencesbiographical, historical, and literaryto enrich each reader's understanding of these enduring works. Medieval England. King Richard the Lion-hearted, coming home from the Crusades, has been captured and imprisoned in Austria. His wicked brother, John, has seized the throne and refuses to pay Richard’s ransom. Meanwhile the conflict between Saxon and Norman threatens to turn into civil war.
Standing above it all is Wilfred of Ivanhoe, the disinherited son of Cedric, a Saxon noble. Ivanhoe enraged his father by following the Norman Richard to the Crusades. Now back in England, he wants to help rescue Richardand marry Cedric’s ward, Rowena. But Cedric has pledged her to a highborn Saxon in hopes of creating a new Saxon royal line. To this mix Walter Scott adds several ferocious Norman villains, the legendary Robin Hood, a Shakespearean wise fool” who constantly offers wryly sardonic comments on the action, and a sidelong look at English anti-Semitism, as a pair of Jewish characters, the beautiful Rebecca and her father, Isaac of York, alternately protect and garner protection from Ivanhoe.
With its clanging swords, burning castles, damsels in distress, and kings in disguise, Ivanhoe remains Scott’s best-loved novel of historical romance.

司各特的书妙趣横生,文学价值与可读性均高,这一本更是好读得很 而最有趣的是序,充满特定时期的意识形态,由于马克思著作中批驳过狮心王理查,所以司各特在书中将理查塑造为正面形象这一点被作序者大加抨击,被冠以意识形态之类的大帽子,虽然司各特在书中清楚的写到理查是一...
评分司各特最著名最具代表性的历史小说,而内容也是中世纪的骑士精神小说。很是具有鲜明的特别。 小说以骑士艾凡赫和“狮心王”理查为正面代表人物。背景则是王权斗争以及王权与教权的斗争。书中的英国刚刚“诺曼征服”,原始住民撒克逊人和征服者诺曼人之间的斗争还未平息。同时统...
