Hello everyone, I was looking for some ideas about contemporary characters with attributes from the romanticism age (So around the years 1800-1850). Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Many thanks!

Please be more specific and give at least one example of what you're looking for. Thanks.

Sorry, I'd need characters similar to Don Félix in the "Student of Salamanca", so someone who presents typical romantic attributes, like feelings and passion over reason, which are his driving force, with society against him.

I think you mean the Romantic Age. Try any of the Brontes. A contemporary character would be someone very formal and well-spoken. If I can think of anybody, I'll be back.

Woops - I just read this response to Wondergirl. So I'm probably in the wrong area. WG would know much better than me about these things.

Daniel's even better than WG. You got the heavy hitters here, VASH8542 - if you ever return.
