Scarlet Pimpernel. Das scharlachrote Siegel.

The intrigue around how a seemingly ordinary noble could pull off such daring rescues is fascinating. I wonder what the author envisioned as the key to his disguise.

His daring heroism is inspiring, but the constant deception also raises questions about morality. How did others in the story perceive him?

The political tensions and cultural biases add layers to the story. I'm curious whether this perspective was intentional or shaped by the author's background.
