Superhero But Make It 18th Century - D Listers of History

Summary:

In today's episode, Mazal and Fayge discuss one of Fayge's favorite authors, Baroness Emma Orczy. Orczy is best known for writing the Scarlet Pimpernel series.

 

Was the Scarlet Pimpernel the world's first modern superhero? Was Marguerite actually the cleverest woman in Europe? Can you still access the treasure trove of early 2000s Scarlet Pimpernel online fan culture?

Work Text:

I am delighted to discover that the online Pimpernel fandom is alive and well. I finally gave in to my desires and covered Baroness Orczy on my history podcast. I thought that it might be of interest to fellow lovers of the Scarlet Pimpernel, so enjoy!

As a matter of courtesy, I would prefer my real name not be associated with my AO3 name, but I figure I can trust fellow fanfiction people to get that. I don't need people in my real life seeing my Garashir fanfiction, lol.
