Ivanhoe è considerato come il primo vero esempio di genere storico, e in esso, oltre alla figura di Ivanhoe, vengono presentate figure leggendarie come Robin Hood, frate Tuck, e Riccardo Cuor di Leone. All'inizio della vicenda, Scott dice che essa si colloca "verso la fine del regno di Riccardo I"; poiché Riccardo stesso compare nel romanzo, di ritorno in Inghilterra dalla Terza Crociata dopo la prigionia passata dal duce d'Austria; pertanto i fatti si collocano attorno al 1194. Le tematiche trattate sono molteplici e complesse.
