Certainly Mérimée based some of "Carmen" on Borrow's Zincali, but I'd love to see a source for the statement that he based don José on someone in The Bible in Spain. He said in a letter to the Countess of Montijo that he based "Carmen" on a story that she told him. —JerryFriedman 23:13, 13 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

I don't think it needs citations when the link is given to the whole text available online at project Gutenberg.86.42.201.99 (talk) 10:20, 17 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

This is indeed a source, but the article contains no synopsis and makes claims that cannot be backed up by the book, or by the 1842 preface. Sparafucil (talk) 02:05, 10 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
