    Default Is Cristiano Viejo "Don Rodrigo" of Manzoni's The Betrothed?

    Don Rodrigo:
    https://it.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Rodrigo


    Don Rodrigo is a cruel and despicable Spaniard nobleman and the novel's main villain. As overbearing overlord, he decides to forcibly prevent the marriage of Renzo and Lucia, threatens to kill Don Abbondio if he marries the two and tries to kidnap Lucia. He's a clear reference to the foreign domination and oppression in Lombardy, first dominated by Spain and later by the Austrian Empire.

    Christiano Viejo is Don Juan

    The Talmud tells us that the only language the Torah could be translated into elegantly is Greek.

    I have the impression instead that behind Don Rodrigo there is actually Cristiano Viejo.

    The coincidences are too many

    Explain^

    "Don Rodrigo è un tirannello mediocre che è stato analizzato bene anche da Francesco De Sanctis. Il critico evidenzia l'essenza psicologica di don Rodrigo, che è tutto dominato dal motivo comico e pure altamente tragico del puntiglio, del falso punto d'onore, che lo spinge, di grado in grado, fino al delitto"

    I Promessi Sposi sembra una di quelle telenovelas spagnole come il Segreto.
