"Few creatures of the night have captured our imagination like vampires.
What explains our enduring fascination with vampires? Is it the overtones of sexual lust, power, control? Or is it a fascination with the immortality of the undead?"

Hahaha. En fait, ce n'est pas si faux. En fait, toutes les personnes qu'ils nomment pendant leur duel sont vrais. Capo Ferro, Agrippa, Bonetti. Thibault est proche du style que j'etudie, parce qu'il habitait en Pays-Bas lorsqu'il etait gouverne par l'Espagne. Chat Potte dans Shrek est une parodie de Zorro dans les films de Antonio Banderas, et encore c'est basé sur l'escrimage de rapiere.

Tu devrais apprécier cette curiosité : https://jlai.lu/post/16539347

Hahaha. Je l'adore !
