> Anyone intrigued by this reading? Not just the obvious "Severus", but other symbolisms
(Lions) and names (Albinus) seem to leap off the page. I'd be interested in another
perspective. That Rowling, she's just sneaky enough to have planted clues like this from
all sorts of classical references...

I have that passage highlighted in my copy of The Prince! :o) And I would not be at all
surprised to find out she had indeed read Machiavelli...Machiavelli also mentions an evil
"Lucius" quite a bit. ;o)
