Ivanhoe is a novel set in Medieval England during the late 1100s. It was written by Sir Walter Scott in the nineteenth century, and portrayed the conflict between the Norman lords who ruled England and the Anglo-Saxon peasants who suffered under their rule. The hero of the novel is Robin Hood, a Saxon who became an outlaw for hunting on the King's land, which had once belonged to his family before the Norman conquest of England.

Sir Arthur Sullivan based an opera on the novel.
