The first thing to do is to understand what historical fiction is to then figure out if Ivanhoe, written by Sir Walter Scott in 1820, is indeed a work that belongs to this genre.

Historical fiction, by definition, is a genre that seeks to portray true historical events within a story or literary work that is not necessarily real. For example, many authors seek to create a story and choose a specific timeframe, event or timeline that fits within a certain historical moment. Although the story may not be real, its characters, settings or even events may be invented, some portions of the story, whether in the plot, the characters, or the environment in which the story takes place, may be from real-life historical events or people.

In the case of Ivanhoe, this particular literary work fits into the classification of historical novel and this can be seen because in portions of the text, you find allusions and direct mention of facts, names and events that are historically real. In this particular excerpt, you can see this in lines 4 to 8, where the author talks about the Saxons and their impact on the English way of life at the time mentioned in the story.

Write a couple of paragraphs on your plan during dashain vacation.​
Burka [1]

Answer:

Dashain is an eagerly awaited time of the year for all Nepalis. It is the time of the year when friends and family get together to celebrate one of the biggest festivities in the country.

Everybody looks forward to receiving tika (a mixture of vermilion paste and rice grains), blessings and token money from their elders. My City’s Nasana Bajracharya talked to some celebrities to know what Dashain means for them and their plans for the Dashain holidays.

Explanation:

2012 hit film ‘Loot’, Saugat Malla is one of the most talented and celebrated actors in the country. He made his debut in Nepali cinema with ‘Kagbeni’ in 2008 and has worked in films like ‘Kabaddi Kabaddi’, ‘Highway’, ‘Chhadke' and ‘Utsav’. Saugat is currently busy working for his new film ‘Jojo’.

For me, Dashain is about receiving blessings from the elders and a time to get together with our loved ones.

This year, I will be in Kathmandu celebrating Dashain with my family and friends. I am planning an outgoing with my family and friends, but nothing has been decided yet.
