Abstract
In this article we will try to draw a parallel between the historical prototypes of the main characters in the novel „The Three Musketeers“ and their artistic construction in the course of the narrative. We will also look at the historical context in which the novel itself appeared as part of a new genre: the historical novel. The combination of real historical events and fiction is very characteristic of this new genre, which became more and more widespread in literature in the first half of the nineteenth century.
Key words: parallel, prototype, artistic construction, historical context, Romanticism, historical novel
