## OK SO

I missed one REALLY obvious parallel and so I gotta tell you all about it now.

CADEROUSSE = RODERIGO

For all of you who are like “who’s Roderigo?” And “what does Caderousse have to do with Roderigo?” It’s ok. I’ll tell you the similarities right now.

SO They both have this “friend” who gives them bad advice in a way that sounds like good advice, so they take the advice, which turns out to not end too well for them. And that “friend” ends up stabbing them and they die. But they happen to have a letter in their pocket at the time listing the crimes of this “friend”, which is later found and used against the “friend”. SO YEAH I THINK IT’S A PRETTY GOOD PARALLEL.

ANYWAY HERE’S THE REST OF THE LIST-

Maximilien- Romeo

Valentine- Juliet

Franz- Paris (?)

La Carconte (cad’s wife)- Lady Macbeth

Benedetto- Edmund of Gloucester

Edouard- that one kid from Coriolanus (?)

Fernand- Othello

Danglars- Iago

Albert- Hamlet

Heloise- Goneril/Regan (?)

Edmond- Macduff

Villefort- Macbeth
