Ivanhoe: A Romance is an 1819 historical novel by Sir Walter Scott, set in the reign of King Richard The Lion Heart and largely concerning the long-smouldering antagonism between the Normans and Saxons in the centuries after the Norman Conquest — an antagonism which, at that date, is highly anachronistic (one might call it a sort of Holyrood History) and largely the product of Scott's teeming imagination. In the face of severe criticism by his own contemporaries on this and other historical inaccuracies, Scott himself admitted, "It is extremely probable that I may have confused the manners of two or three centuries," but comforted himself that "errors of this kind will escape the general class of readers." (And to be fair, this romantic idea of early British history remained popular enough that Arthur Conan Doyle used it 72 years later, in The White Company, which takes place centuries after the events of Ivanhoe.) Despite the author's Whig history limitations and prejudices (which are evident), Ivanhoe is a stirring and colourful tale, with plenty of action, lovable heroes and heroines and hissable villains, and a real feeling for the genuine — if extremely exaggerated — romance of The High Middle Ages.The novel was originally something of a Pot-boiler. Scott's popularity as a poet was waning in the face of the more exotic verses of Lord Byron, and his over-gentrified lifestyle and a life-threatening bout of illness had left his pocketbook in an equally sickly condition. His Scottish novels were popular enough, but of limited appeal; Scott felt, moreover, the need for a fresher source of inspiration — so he turned to History and The Middle Ages, the object of his lifelong and devoted (if not always pedantically accurate) study. The novel won immediate, long-lasting, and deserved popularity, restored Scott's fortunes, and helped to launch the entire Historical Fiction genre.

 Ivanhoe / int_113480b7
comment
Canon Foreigner: An extremely strange case: Little John. Yes, he's a famous member of Robin Hood's band of merry men, but he's not in the novel (he's mentioned once, but only in the capacity of Robin telling the others that he's somewhere else entirely). Yet in this particular adaptation he's given a large part to play. Another that fits the definition of "extremely strange case": would be Eleanor of Aquitaine showing up. Yes, she was a historical figure who was alive at this point in time, but she didn't appear in the original novel. The only members of the House of Plantagenet to appear, be it from being born into the house or marrying into it, are Richard and John. Of course, with her making appearances in Robin Hood adaptations it was only a matter of time until she appeared in an adaptation of Ivanhoe.

Age Lift: Reginald Fitzurse was born in 1145 and marrying age for men at that time was seventeen, thus Waldemar has to be thirty-two at the oldest. Waldemar is played by Ronald Pickup who was fifty-seven at the time, though really Waldemar has never been played by a man in his thirties.

comment
Greedy Jew: Isaac of York in Ivanhoe is a downplayed example, and comes across more as a Mr. Vice Guy with Greed as his vice who just happens to be Jewish than a racial caricature. He's a moneylender with seemingly unlimited stores of riches who is very concerned with his money, but he helps Ivanhoe out of gratitude when he is hurt and frequently expresses that his love for his daughter trumps all of his wealth and even his own life.

Does This Remind You of Anything?
 Ivanhoe / int_14ed6ab7
comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: The reason why Scott greatly exaggerated the by-that-time minimal to nonexistent tensions between the Norman and Saxon nobles is now thought to be so that he could draw parallels between that and what was going on in his own time between Scottish and English nobles. The union of the Scottish and English crowns had occurred roughly a century prior to Scott's birth, and there was still much lingering animosity between Scottish and English noble families at that time, despite both ostenibly serving and fighting for the same king and country. Scott used the Normans and Saxons as stan-ins for English and Scottish, respectively, to comment upon how foolish they all were being for still being at odds with one another despite having been a united kingdom for over a century by that point.

Byronic Hero: Bois-Guilbert is a villain who is male, charismatic, intelligent, self-centered, emotionally conflicted, over-indulgent towards himself, cynical, world-weary, jaded, and extremely passionate. He sees his own values and passions (lust for power and for Rebecca) as above those of others (he despises his fellow knights templars), manifesting as arrogance.

Adaptational Villainy
 Ivanhoe / int_20f689e9
comment
Adaptational Villainy: Bois-Guilbert not only betrayed King Richard to the Austrians but pinned the blame for it on Ivanhoe to conceal his own treachery, leaving the latter disgraced and needing to clear his name. Instead of being "merely" a literal Knight Templar, Lucas de Beaumanoir is power-hungry and sadistic without even the redeeming qualities he had in the book. Especially noticeable after the final battle of Bois-Guilbert and Ivanhoe: in the book, Beaumanoir immediately accepts the result as the judgment of God and declares Rebecca innocent, but in the series he plans to kill her and Ivanhoe and would have done so, if not for Robin Hood's men providing backup.

Character Development: Sir Brian de Bois-Guilbert evolves from fully intending to rape the lovely Rebecca to trying to persuade her to turn Christian and voluntarily become his mistress to finally offering to throw away a lifetime of ambitions and plots and marry her if she will only accept him. The extent to which this is an improvement is questionable, however, since he remains unwilling to take "no" for an answer throughout and intends to let her be burned alive as a witch if she won't accept him. On the other hand it certainly demonstrates his sincere interest - which puts him one up on Wilfred who barely knows Rebecca's alive.

Curb-Stomp Battle: Due to Ivanhoe's previous injuries, the climactic Trial by Combat is painfully lopsided in Bois-Guilbert's favor; even with Bois-Guilbert giving Ivanhoe every chance he can, Ivanhoe can't land a hit and every blow that his opponent lands brings him down. It's only by Throwing the Fight that Ivanhoe can land a killing blow.

Historical Hero Upgrade / Historical Villain Upgrade: Quite an interesting case, as this is actually discussed and deconstructed near the end of the series. Eleanor of Aquitaine confronts both her sons and chews out not only John, but Richard as well. If anything she's more annoyed with the latter, since he's spent all but three or four months of his reign in the Holy Lands and has near bankrupted England to pay for his wars - leaving John to do the unpleasant but necessary task of raising the money for these wars and Richard's ransom, as well as keeping the country running. As she points out, 'John may be a miserable little runt, but at least he's been here!'

Adaptational Heroism: Bois-Guilbert starts out merely lusting after Rebecca, but grows to appreciate her intelligence and spirit; by the end he's genuinely in love with her, aids Isaac's escape from the Templars so he can attempt to get some help, tries to help her escape the night before her execution, and urges Ivanhoe to kill him during their duel so that her life will be spared. Most of the protagonists are generally far nicer to Isaac and Rebecca than they were in the novel, and their differing religions never seem to be too much of an issue.

Public Domain Character: Robin Hood and Friar Tuck. Scott was not the first, by any means, but he is probably the most influential author in linking the outlaw's legend with Richard The Lion Heart and Prince John; more original with Scott was the linking of the legend with a supposed racial animosity between the Normans and the Saxons. Scott also popularised the name "Locksley" as associated with the outlaw.

Damsel in Distress: Lady Rowena is kidnapped by three Norman knights. De Bracy wants to force her to marry him. Gurth, Wamba, Cedric, and the Black Knight will join forces with Locksley and the outlaws to free her. Rebecca was kidnapped at the same time as Rowena, but nobody bothers about freeing her, so she does not really fit the trope at this point. Bois-Guilbert manages to get away from Torquilstone with her, and, finally, she is held prisoner by the knights templar who threatens to burn her alive. Then, her father, Ivanhoe and even King Richard come to her aid.

Badass in Distress: Ivanhoe is a strong knight (apart from king Richard, he is the only one able to defeat Bois-Guilbert), but he is wounded during the tournament, so Rebecca has to treat him, he is caught by De Bracy, he is held prisoner at Torquilstone and the Black Knight has to save him from the fire.

Corrupt Church
 Ivanhoe / int_5539b84f
comment
Corrupt Church: Sir Walter, being a conventional if not convicted Presbyterian, invented quite a few corrupt churchmen as Take Thats against the Roman Catholic Church: the worldly Prior Aymer, the proud, cruel, and lustful Bois-Guilbert, the ignorant and violent "hedge-priest" Friar Tuck, the unscrupulous Malvoisin, the fanatical Beaumanoir, the greedy and treacherous Abbot Wolfram who betrays Athelstane. Indeed, there is not a single completely upstanding cleric in the whole novel. To be fair though, few are completely unsympathetic villains. Prior Aylmer's faults are made up for to a large degree by his good nature - he is fonder of wine, women and the hunt more than a churchman should be but he is easygoing and actually quite friendly to all. Friar Tuck is likewise fonder of his pleasures than he ought to be, and somewhat less learned that he ought to be, but is a sturdy and trusted member of Robin Hood's band nevertheless. Beaumanoir for his part is a villain, but is portrayed as completely sincere rather than deliberately malicious, while Bois-Guilbert gets Character Development and becomes almost a Noble Demon. And of course, corrupt priests like this did exist—rather, it's the bias in favour of it without any good ones which is telling.

Artistic License – History
 Ivanhoe / int_56515a39
comment
Artistic License – History: Cedric and Athelstane are shown having their beards tugged at the banquet of Lord John, as he was historically called due to being the first Lord of Ireland. This episode actually happened in real life, many times in fact...except John's courtiers were doing it to Gaelic Irish men, not Saxon men. Eleanor criticizes Richard for being away from England his entire reign, but both logically and realistically speaking, even if Richard's reign had not mostly consisted of military activity, he would not have spent the majority of it in England since the Angevin Empire's court was held in either Angers or Chinon, plus Richard viewed Aquitaine as his home, all places located in France. Had Richard not gone on crusade he still would have been in France more often that he would be in England; one would think that Eleanor, Richard's co-ruler in Aquitaine, would know that.

Names to Run Away from Really Fast: A lot of these. The Templar Preceptor Albert de Malvoisin ("bad neighbour") and his brother Philip; Reginald Front-de-Boeuf ("Or 'Beef-head'" as Richard Armour put it, in The Classics Reclassified). Waldemar Fitzurse's last name means "Son of the Bear" — which was also the surname of the ringleader of St. Thomas Becket's assassins. Scott states outright that Waldemar is the assassin's son.

Direct Line to the Author: Scott originally published the novel under the pseudonym Laurence Templeton, in which guise he claimed he was merely transcribing and editing an actual medieval document, the "Wardour Manuscript" note a pun on "Wardour Street" in London, which was known for its shops that sold antique furniture of dubious provenance — though the author’s actual identity seems to have been an open secret.

People of Hair Color: Although Scott's assertion of a lingering racial animosity between Normans and Saxons was not absolutely without basis (there was in Henry II's time a Saxon noble called "William with the Beard" who refused to shave as a protest against the Conquest), there can be absolutely no doubt that such feelings were highly eccentric, uncommon, and of no practical social or political importance by the reign of Richard I.

Cooked to Death (threatened): Having captured the wealthy Isaac of York, Front-de-Boeuf has him thrown into a dungeon and threatens to have him tied to a gridiron placed over glowing coals unless Isaac is willing to pay a thousand pounds of silver for his freedom. When Isaac refuses all negotations, Front-de-Boeuf orders his slaves to strip him, and reaffirms that he is ready to kill him by roasting him alive (the slaves even brought a bottle of oil to baste Isaac). The preparations are stopped at the last moment by the sound of a bugle announcing the presence of a hostile army before the castle.

All Love Is Unrequited: A mixed example: While Ivanhoe does love and marry Rowena in this version, he kisses Rebecca and shows a large amount of romantic affection for her, believing that he could wed and love her if only she were not a Jewess. The show even ends with Ivanhoe lamenting what could have been.

Slave Collar: Gurth, Cedric's swine-herd, wears around his neck a soldered brass-ring, "resembling a dog's collar", with an inscription saying in "Saxon characters" that "Gurth, the son of Beowulph, is the born thrall of Cedric of Rotherwood." After he has saved his master's life, his master frees him, and the collar is ceremoniously sawed off.

Disinherited Child: Ivanhoe has been disinherited by his Saxon father, Cedric of Rotherwood, because Ivanhoe allied with Norman King Richard to fight in the Crusades. Cedric would even deny Ivanhoe suitor status to his ward, Rowena; Cedric aims to wed Rowena to Athelstane to bolster the Saxon nobility. Upon returning to England incognito, Ivanhoe enters a combat tournament with "Desdichado" (unfortunate, wretched) printed on his shield.

Anachronic Order: Scott does not tell the events in the chronological order. For example, after the abduction of Cedric and Rowena, he tells in successive chapters events that happen at the same time: the actions of Wamba and Gurth (chapter 20), the fate of Cedric and Athelstane (21), of Isaac (22), of Rowena (23), and of Rebecca (24). Then, in chapter 28, Scott returns to the tournament of Ashby to tell what happened to Ivanhoe.

comment
Artistic License – Religion: It's said the sacrament of penance (i.e. absolution) can only be received once in a person's lifetime. Whoever wrote that clearly didn't know even the most basic facts of Catholicism. There's no limit, and in fact shortly after this is set the Church actually mandated people have the sacrament at least once a year because many had been neglecting it. Heresy trials didn't really occur yet at the time either by the Church, so the forced baptism of a Jew (itself not considered valid) so he can then be tried for this over rejecting Christ would not work.

 Ivanhoe / int_b76b06ba
comment
Xenafication: One gets the sense that the attempt was made to do this with Rowena before someone came to their senses. She is portrayed as much more fiesty and spirited than her book counterpart, and at one point she wields a sword in her own defence - only for the need to use it to never truly arise.

 Ivanhoe / int_b8e3f20a
comment
Demoted to Extra: Athelstane goes from Rowena's arranged betrothed to Cedric's second-in-command. Although the role sounds larger it really isn't as he becomes less important a figure to the story and is not even among the prisoners held at Torquilstone but one of the army attacking Torquilstone. Due to him never getting a blow hat stuns him and makes him seem dead, there is never any funeral for him either. His role in the special amounts to him challenging Bois-Guilbert at Ashby, losing and then aids the Black Knight, Cedric, Robin Hood, Friar Tuck and a host of Saxon soldiers and Merry Men attack Torquilstone to free Ivanhoe, Rowena, Gurth and Wamba.

Knight Templar
 Ivanhoe / int_bbfaa837
comment
Instead of being "merely" a literal Knight Templar, Lucas de Beaumanoir is power-hungry and sadistic without even the redeeming qualities he had in the book. Especially noticeable after the final battle of Bois-Guilbert and Ivanhoe: in the book, Beaumanoir immediately accepts the result as the judgment of God and declares Rebecca innocent, but in the series he plans to kill her and Ivanhoe and would have done so, if not for Robin Hood's men providing backup.

De Bracy is the superego (he respects the chivalric code of honour; he is superstitious). Bois-Guilbert is the ego: in his mind, there is a fight between his desires (he covets, then falls in love with Rebecca) and his respect of social norms (his status as knight templar, his personal honour). This internal conflict kills him in the end.
