Excerpt from The Study of Ivanhoe In many novels a certain number of chapters in the beginning are devoted to familiarizing the reader with the conditions under which the action takes place, to the introduction of characters that bear prominent parts, to any antecedent facts essential to an under standing of the narrative; the beginning, or starting point, of the action, also, is usually given in connection with this initial and necessary information.
