Rob Roy - A man of dignity who would not compromise his principles to avoid personal hardships. According to the movie anyway, ha ha.

Winston Churchill, as his literary life was only part of a larger one.

Hi Lil

I'm not sure what your question meant. Someone who was literary or some character from literature?

If the first then : Lord Byron - Love his work and his lifestyle, he crammed so much into such a short time.

If the second then : The Highwayman in the poem of the same name by Alfred Noyes

Yeah Glyndwr - I was confused too! (I know, I know...that's not difficult!)

So..... if you meant what writer would I choose to be:

Vladimir Nabokov - just so that I could take the credit for writing "Lolita" and be fluent in about a zillion languages. Oh and, yeah, it would be kind of fun to try out being a guy for a while!

If you meant what literary character:
Probably Cinderella. The idea that being a good person will eventually pay off and the whole metamorphosis thing really does it for me. Just for one night to be the woman that makes everyone turn their heads and gasp is a fantasy of mine....

Moriarty, 'cos he had so much fun being evil.

Too easy....King Frederick Richard Hollenzollern II of Prussia.
1712-to-1786

In his time he was known as Frederick the Great, for having won the Seven Years war 1756-to-1763 defeating Austria/Hungry, Russia, Sweden, and the Holy Roman Empire. But aside from the terror he struck in the European courts, he was one of the best writers of his age. Many of his works are of a political and military nature, but he contributed to philisophy, and art. Perhaps the most educated rule of his time.
