Hailed by Victor Hugo as 'the real epic of our age,' Ivanhoe was an immensely popular bestseller when first published in 1819. The book inspired literary imitations as well as paintings, dramatizations, and even operas. Now Sir Walter Scott's sweeping romance of medieval England has prompted a lavish new television production.
In the twelfth century, Sir Wilfred of Ivanhoe returns home to England from the Third Crusade to claim his inheritance and the love of the lady Rowena. The heroic adventures of this noble Saxon knight involve him in the struggle between Richard the Lion-Hearted and his malignant brother John: a conflict that brings Ivanhoe into alliance with the mysterious outlaw Robin Hood and his legendary fight for the forces of good.
'Scott's characters, like Shakespeare's and Jane Austen's, have the seed of life in them,' observed Virginia Woolf. 'The emotions in which Scott excels are not those of human beings pitted against other human beings, but of man pitted against Nature, of man in relation to fate. His romance is the romance of hunted men hiding in woods at night; of brigs standing out to sea; of waves breaking in the moonlight; of solitary sands and distant horsemen; of violence and suspense.' For Henry James, 'Scott was a born storyteller. . . . Since Shakespeare, no writer has created so immense a gallery of portraits.'

读后感
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...
评分司各特的书充满了浪漫主义气息，尤其对人物场景的描述有令人惊叹的功力。虽然站在通篇全文的历史角度，每个人都有其局限性，不过对于我等非文学工作者的普通百姓来说，看书就图个心灵愉悦，关于这点要求，司各特的《英雄艾文荷》完全做到了，与之相比，不得不说《紫艾草骑士》...
评分上班头几年在宿舍住，工会有个小图书馆，里面都是旧书，有次借了《红酋罗伯》，发现司各特写的小说很精彩，我是把它当外国武侠看的，之后又看了《艾凡赫》《皇家猎宫》《爱丁堡监狱》《医生的女儿》，《清教徒》忘了看没看过，凡是能找到的司各特小说我都看了，我觉得他的...
评分看原文才能令你知道Ivanhoe的真正魅力…… 从这本书中可以知道，当时的世俗文学是被骑士文学所统治的。骑士们当然不会关心什么第一原因和最终目的。他们一直保持一种蛮勇、侠义、忠诚、向妇女献殷勤的精神，却也非常有意思……
