The ashes of Alexandre Dumas ["The Three Musekeeters", "The Count of Monte Cristo", "The Man In the Iron Mask"] are being moved from Villers-Cotterets, where Dumas requested he be buried, to the Pantheon, which houses the remains of many of France's great figures -- Voltaire, Curie.
On the one hand, a great honor, on the other, direct defiance of a last wish. Who should win arguments like that, the state or the individual?
