Felix de Charetty
Overview and Issue
[edit | edit source]- Character Biographical Notes Written by Dorothy Dunnett taken from the Dorothy Dunnett Archive.
Abstract
[edit | edit source]- This is one of many Character notes researched by DD. In these notes she sets the political, historical, academic and commercial context that the characters were formed by and had to deal with. These characters include real people and fictional characters. Whilst they set the background for the character of Felix de Charetty, it should not be assumed that no changes were made by DD when actually writing the novels. They indicate her intention at a point in time.
