This tale, published in 1828, is based on The Story of an Apparition, a ghost story published in Blackwood's 10 years earlier by an author identified only as A. B. Sir Walter Scott took that rather flimsy story and turned into a masterful tale of the supernatural.

Scott's thrilling Gothic tale of romance, mystery, adventure and heroism is replete with hidden treasure, cliffhangers, eerie ruined abbeys and down-to-earth characters. It's centered around the figure of an antiquary - an amateur historian and archaeologist - who provides a brilliantly witty commentary on the unfolding adventures. Just as accessible and enjoyable today as it would have been when first published almost two hundred years ago, the novel still enjoys huge popularity throughout the world.

"Forse qualche anno fa avete già letto questo libro, Ivanhoe di Walter Scott. O forse, invece, è la prima volta che lo incontrate, ed è attraverso la voce. Magari sapete che è uno dei primi romanzi storici, e che il suo autore, Walter Scott, è il moderno ideatore di questo genere che oggi conosce tanta fortuna. E forse sapete anche che proprio questo romanzo ha ispirato Alessandro Manzoni a mettere mano ai suoi Promessi sposi. Di certo, di Ivanhoe avete sentito parlare. Vi aspettate cavalli e cavalieri, eroine e templari, sassoni e normanni, principi e buffoni, persino Robin Hood, e non rimarrete delusi."

Hacia el tiempo en que Ricardo Corazón de León salió de su cautividad, estos rebeldes jóvenes se habían refugiado en el bosque de Sherwood, teatro de sus aventuras.
