And I would have thought that Heathcliff was a heathen...though I get what you mean. I haven't read any decidedly non-waspish ones- perhaps you could suggest some and we do poll number 2?

I didn't catch the random men part. Sorry. I didn't mean to hurt your poll. :)

Also, weltanschauung, I love Cyrano. He is one of my favorite Romantic Heros.

Or Bazarov for that matter.;)

Darcy was my pick always is.

As much as I loved Jay Gatsby and Heathcliff, I have to choose Atticus Finch - one of the most passionate, utilitarian, truth-seeking, modest individuals of all literature. :nod:

Yay! I was going to say Atticus Finch! I'd add Elwood P. Dowd in Harvey, if you count plays. but..as for pond scenes, I'd say Darcy wins hands down for ideal gorgeousness...

Yes, change the poll to include the warrior poet Cyrano or this poll is invalid. :)

Is he the one with the big nose? :)

its a bus parked on his face.

Rochester all the way :)

But, let's take Kelby's thread idea one step further and have a forum poll on this subject.

Please PM with your suggestions by March 1st.

Well, if those are the possibilities, my vote goes to Romeo.

I've voted for Wentworth now :thumbs_up.
