    THE MAN IN THE IRON MASK Alexandre Dumas (pere) THE MAN IN THE IRON MASK Table of Contents THE MAN IN THE IRON MASK..........................................................................................................................1 Alexandre Dumas (pere)................................................................................................................................1 i THE MAN IN THE IRON MASK Alexandre Dumas (pere) Chapter I: Two Old Friends WHILE EVERY ONE AT court was busy with his own affairs, a man mysteriously took up his post behind the Place de Greve, in the house which we once saw besieged by d'Artagnan on the occasion of a riot. The principal entrance of this house was in the Place Baudoyer. The house was tolerably large, surrounded by gardens, enclosed in the Rue St. Jean by the shops of tool−makers, which protected it from prying looks; and was walled in by a triple rampart of stone, noise, and verdure, like an embalmed mummy in its triple coffin. The man to whom we have just alluded walked along with a firm step, although he was no longer in his early prime. His dark cloak and long sword outlined beneath the cloak plainly revealed a man seeking adventures; and judging from his curling mustaches, his fine and smooth skin, as seen under his sombrero, the gallantry of his adventures was unquestionable. In fact, hardly had the cavalier entered the house, when the clock of St. Gervais struck eight; and ten minutes afterwards a lady, followed by an armed servant, approached and knocked at the same door, which an old woman immediately opened for her. The lady raised her veil as she entered; though no longer a beauty, she was still a woman; she was no longer young, yet she was sprightly and of an imposing carriage.

  • Man in the Iron Mask
    THE MAN IN THE IRON MASK by Randall Wallace FIRST DRAFT September 18, 1995 FADE IN: From the BLACKNESS before the first images, we hear a young woman's tortured SCREAM, muffled by her own will. We see her mouth, open in agony; her face, beaded with sweat. Her name is ANNE, and she is Queen of France. She lies in A ROYAL BEDCHAMBER The royal DOCTOR kneels at the foot of her bed; her own royal mother grips her hands... On the opposite side of the huge bedchamber, and separated from the queen's bed by an artistically painted screen, are royal ADVISORS sweating and anxious for any word to take to their king. They wince as the Queen moans again in the pain of childbirth. Her fingers claw out for help, but her Doctor ignores her need to be touched and comforted; he is concerned only for the baby. Only her PRIEST, FATHER BELLES, sits at her head, stroking her hair gently and rapidly whispering prayers. DOCTOR The head is born! One arm... the other arm... it is a boy! The advisors, disregarding the Queen's privacy, scurry around the screen to see the doctor lift the beautiful baby, wet with birth. The mother -- the Queen -- is still in agony, yet she struggles to lift her head. ADVISOR 1 I shall tell the king! ADVISOR 2 I shall tell him! They hurry for the door. But their race to be first to bring this great news to the King is interrupted as the Queen emits another cry; it surprises the doctor.

ONLINE EDITION .................................... December 2003 NEW YORK LABOR NEWS P.O. BOX 218 MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA 94042-0218 http://www.slp.org/nyln.htm ILLUSTRATIONS Louis Bonaparte was mercilessly satirized in cartoons and caricatures until the coup. The iron censorship he imposed thereafter put a temporary halt to the lampooning in France. However, the European cartoonists outside France took up where their French colleagues had been compelled to leave off. The greatest pen and pencil artists of France had meanwhile succeeded in recording the corruption and scoundrelism of the little man who, through the magic of the name Napoleon, had managed for a time to follow in his uncle’s footsteps. These great artists, true social satirists of the highest order, included such outstanding men as Honore Daumier (born 1808), Andre Gill (Gosset de Guines, born 1840), Gavarni (Guillaume Sulpice Chevalier, born 1804), Grandville, Bertall, Faustin and many others. Daumier was the greatest of these—an immortal among artists and social satirists.

  • Man in the Iron Mask Study Guide
    Synopsis A swashbuckling action adventure ‘The Man in the Iron Mask’ reunites the legendary Three Musketeers to once again defend the throne of France. When the Musketeers join forces to rescue a mysterious masked prisoner in the infamous Bastille Prison, they reveal a long held secret that could end the King’s reign and destroy their enduring alliance. In a dual role, Leonardo DiCaprio stars as King Louis XIV and ‘The Man in the Iron Mask’. The Three Musketeers are played by John Malkovich (Athos), Gerard Depardieu (Porthos) and Jeremy Irons (Aramis). Gahriel Byrne plays d’Artagnan, the famous Captain of the Musketeers. Director Randall Wallace UK release date March 20, 199R Certificate 12 Running time 132 mins History Now and Then When Alexandre Dumas wrote the stories involving the Musketeers - Athos, Porthos, Aramis and d’Artagnan - there must have been something attractive about the period in which he set his stories. Dumas was looking for a time in history which might have reflected some of the concerns of his own time. He was also looking for stories which would make ‘ripping yarns’. · Is this the same for historians and historical novelists today? Are the periods and subjects that they study simply chosen because they themselves are interested in them or do they have a relevance? Perhaps an ‘echo’ of what is happening in the world today! · What about your history studies? Why do you think you are studying the periods in history that you are? TASKS Look at some of the historical novels that are popular at the moment, for example the Sharpe series.
