Spartacus, Saladin, Frederick the Second of the Holy Roman Empire, Jeanne d'Arc, Leonardo da Vinci, René Descartes, Robespierre, Goethe, Simón Bolívar, Karl Marx & Friedrich Engels, Pietro Mascagni, James Connolly, Nicola Sacco & Bartolomeo Vanzetti, Lenin, Stalin, Sergei Eisenstein, Rosa Luxemburg, Mao, Che Guevara. Heroic may not be the most adequate term for some of them but they were all important in different ways and mean something for me.

Don't really have heroes but there were some great characters in the English Civil War years; Edward Sexby, Abiezer Coppe, & Lawrence Clarkson in particular
