Speaking of the funny thing I picked up from the WOT Origins Book

Taim's name comes from Cardinal Jules Mazarin (1602–61), the chief minister to Louis XIII and Louis XIV, the de facto ruler of France for nearly two decades, who played a crucial role in establishing the Westphalian principles that would guide European states' foreign policy and the prevailing world order (quoted from Wikipedia)

Logain's name comes from a road across Jordan's home

Dites-vous bien qu'on préfère toujours confier une fonction importante à un incapable plutôt qu'à un homme qui la mérite.

Jules Mazarin

[girlboccaccio]

Jacob Ferdinand Voet - different portaits of the Mazarinettes, the collective name which indicated the seven nieces of Cardinal Jules Mazarin (Giulio Mazzarino), chief minister to the Kings Louis XIII and Louis XIV of France.  

Their names were: Laura and Anna Maria, daughter of Laura Margherita Mazzarino; Laura, Olimpia, Maria, Ortensia and Maria Anna, daughter of Girolama Mazzarino.

Mazarin wished to establish a dynasty in France and secure his legacy through advantageous marriages, but could have no children of his own as a member of the Catholic clergy. He also wanted to surround himself with his family, in whom he could confide, as he had many enemies at court.

The French royal family supervised the education of the girls. The Queen Regent, Anne of Austria, allowed for the younger children to be educated with the future king Louis XIV and his younger brother, Monsieur Philippe, Duke of Anjou.

Cardinal Mazarin arranged advantageous marriages for his nieces with powerful French and Italian aristocrats, and gave large dowries to their husbands in order to overcome their reluctance to marry women of lower origins. Many of them, in any case, will live more adventurous lives, becoming estimated women of letters or abandoning violent husbands and becoming lovers of kings and other rulers.

Anne of Austria (1601–1666) was the wife of Louis XIII and Queen of France from 1615 until Louis XIII's death in 1643. After her husband's death and becoming the regent to her very young son, she allegedly became the lover of Cardinal Jules Mazarin, who helped her run the government until Louis XIV came of age. She also had a close relationship with her son, but disapproved of his mistresses.

so i haven't yet read Roman Holiday, but i was wondering what your thoughts were regarding it and Neo's fairy tale allusion? I'm not sure if its something the book gets into, i just know that so far in the show it's been kinda vague and subject to some fan speculation. I saw one of your posts mentioning an allusion to gollum/smeagol, which would be cool, but do you think that's intentional, or more incidental? and if incidental, what her 'actual' allusion might be?

I'll admit, I didn't pick up on a whole lot of potential allusions for Neo in Roman Holiday. I do think Neo's main allusion is still going to be Gollum/Smeagol. It's been well documented by now that RWBY loves its Lord of the Rings allusions, and Neo/Trivia is fairly perfectly positioned to be a fairly interesting take on the Gollum/Smeagol dynamic. So yeah, I think the potential references are very intentional on CRWBY's part.

Also, if CRWBY do actually go for giving Ruby the Odin allusions I've discussed in previous posts, then Neo would make an ideal allusion to Loki to go along with Ruby's Odin, for fairly obvious reasons (Note: Unlike what Marvel would have you believe, in Norse myth Loki is sworn/blood brothers to Odin, not Thor)

That being said, there is one detail from Roman Holiday that I do think gives Neo an allusion I do find particularly interesting. Early on in the novel, there is a brief appearance by a 'Doctor Mazarin', who diagnosis Trivia's mutism. Now, Cardinal Jules Mazarin was a major character in Alexandre Dumas' novel The Vicomte of Bragelonne: Ten Years Later (a sequel to The Three Musketeers), likely better known for its most well-known character: The Man in the Iron Mask. A secret twin-brother to the king who has been imprisoned his entire life and forced to wear an iron mask to prevent anyone from finding out who he really is.

Which I'd say fits Neo's/Trivia's situation surprisingly well. Neo once represented all of things Trivia tried to lock away, and now most likely Trivia represents everything Neo is trying to lock away.

There has been a time when history was written in whispered secrets and stolen glances.

[ansiklomedia]

Jules Mazarin Kimdir? İtalyan kökenli Fransız siyaset adamıdır. (Abruzzi/Pescina 1602-Vincennes 1661). 1622’de İspanya’daki Acalar Üniversitesi’nde (bugün Madrid Üniversitesi) kilise hukuku öğrenimi gördü.

[dumbletexts]

Y’all know both in the show and in history, Louis XIV lost his virginity at the age of fourteen to Catherine Bellier, an older lady in waiting of his mother on Queen Anne’s instructions. She was said to be quite ugly, with one eye...Anne purposely picked somebody ugly because she didn’t want Louis falling for the girl.

Philippe’s first time was also set up, Cardinal Mazarin set him up with his nephew, the handsome and bisexual libertine (Philippe) Jules Mancini. At least Philippe got to lose his virginity to somebody hot! Who wants to bet that Philippe teased the SHIT out of Louis about that forever. Like for the rest of their lives until he died, I bet Fifi NEVER let Lulu Hear the end of that! Lol

So anyway, I don't think Trivia Vanille is Neopolitan.

I think the Neo we see in the first chapter is, in fact, actually Neo, and has Trivia's parents convinced she's an imaginary friend.

While reading the chapter, I started thinking it was possible the "imaginary Neo" was real, but the thing that sealed it for me?

Trivia's parents mention a Doctor Mazarin.

Cardinal Jules Mazarin was first minister to Kings Louis XII and XIV of France. He succeeded the infamous Cardinal Richlieu of Three Musketeers fame. And in a sequel to The Three Musketeers, a book called The Vicomte of Bragelonne: Ten Years Later, there is a certain story about Louis XIV.

Regarding the legendary Man in the Iron Mask.

A secret identical twin brother of Louis XIV, imprisoned and forced to wear an iron mask to conceal his identity.

Dramatis personae:

Hortense, duchess of Mazarin Armand-Charles, her husband Marie, her sister Philippe-Jules, her brother Charles II, king of England Anne Lennard, countess of Sussex

From https://partylike1660.com/hortense-mancini-duchesse-mazarin/

In January 1666, as Hortense had just given birth to Paul Jules and was eager to rejoin court life, her husband took all her jewellery from her while she was dressing and forbade her to leave. Hortense, in tears, thus tried to flee to the neighbouring property of her brother Philippe-Jules, Duc de Nevers, but her husband had the connection door in the garden closed up with bricks. What followed was witnessed by many happening to pass by. Hortense fled to the street to reach the property of her brother, under the cries of her husband urging the servants to take her captive. Hortense was once again locked up in a cloister, but freed with the help of her brothers-in-law and Armand-Charles banished from the Palais Mazarin.

Hortense finally made a bid to escape from her hellish marriage on the night of 13 June 1668, with help from her brother. Disguised in men’s clothing and on horseback, she left Paris in the midst of the night and boarded a carriage at its outskirts, that brought her to Lorraine and from there to Rome, to her sister Marie, now Princesse Colonna. Philippe-Jules joined them there shortly after and the exiled Chevalier de Lorraine as well. The latter had an eye on Hortense, but she had no particular interest in him and thus turned him down.

Hortense returned to France in 1670* and that in a not less scandalous manner. This time it was Marie fleeing from her abusive husband, afraid he might plan to poison her. Philippe-Jules asked for permission to bring both her and Hortense to France with him. Louis XIV declared himself protector of both sisters and the plan went underway. Marie and Hortense left Rome, wearing men’s garments under their travelling garments. They went to Monaco, where a boat, chartered by their brother, was waiting for them. The voyage was delayed by Hortense giving birth to a child obviously not from her husband, which lead him thus to spread rumours of a incestual relationship between Hortense and Jules-Philippe. Louis XIV intervened again and ordered Armand-Charles to refrain from stating accusations like this, then granted Hortense an annual pension of 24000 livres. Her former suitor the Duc de Savoy also declared himself her protector and Hortense retired to Chambéry, in Haute-Savoie, where she establish her home as a meeting place for authors, philosophers, and artists.

After the death of her Savoyan protector in 1675, Hortense had no source of income anymore, since her husband froze all of her income, including the pension from Louis XIV. The English ambassador to France, Ralph Montagu, aware of Hortense’s desperate situation, enlisted her help in increasing his own standing with Charles II. He hoped she would replace the King’s current mistress, Louise de Kerouaille, Duchess of Portsmouth. Hortense was willed to try and disguised herself as a man again to travel to England, under the pretext of a visit to her young niece, Mary of Modena, the new wife of Charles’ younger brother, James, Duke of York.

It did not take long until the plan succeeded. Already by mid 1675, Hortense was a visitor of Charles’ bed and he provided her with a pension of £4,000, enabling her to live a comfortable life.

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hortense_Mancini:

This state of affairs might have continued had it not been for Hortense's promiscuity. She was dubbed 'the Italian Whore' in England.

Firstly, there was her almost certainly sexual relationship with Anne, Countess of Sussex, the king's illegitimate daughter by the Duchess of Cleveland. This culminated in a very public, friendly fencing match in St. James's Park, with the women clad in nightgowns, after which Anne's husband ordered his wife to the country. There she refused to do anything but lie in bed, repeatedly kissing a miniature of Hortense

Philippe Jules Mancini, 8th Duke of Nevers (1641–1707) was also a nephew of Cardinal Mazarin. He had five sisters (remembered as the Mancini sisters) in total as well as two brothers.

Armand-Charles de La Porte, Duc de La Meilleraye (1632–1713) abused his wife Hortense to the point where she escaped to London and became a mistress of Charles II, Henrietta's brother.
