Rebecca And Rowena PDF Download

This volume bonds together the amazing novel IVANHOE by Sir Walter Scott, with the sequel written by another of the great writers of the 19th century, William Thackeray. Ivanhoe is a historical novel set in 12th century England, which has been credited for increasing interest in romance and medievalism. Some have claimed that Scott was the first to turn men's minds back towards the Middle Ages, and have attributed to Scott an overwhelming influence over the revival, based primarily on the publication of this novel. We must remember that this is the first novel that introduces the immortal character of Robin Hood, later reproduced by several authors, including Alexandre Dumas. In Rebecca and Rowana, the sequel by Thackeray -the famous author of Vanity Fair- , using his satire, creates an irreverent and theatrical plot that calls into question the ending of Sir Walter Scott's Ivanhoe.
