Rival of Cyrano?
The article says "His son, Antoine Jacob, who was also known as Montfleury, was a rival of Molière and Cyrano de Bergerac." But Cyrano died in 1655, and Antoine Jacob was born in 1639, so the son was only about 16 when Cyrano died; therefore, it seems unlikely to me that the son was a rival of Cyrano's. Also, the article about Antoine Jacob doesn't mention Cyrano at all. So I'm guessing that the sentence about the son being a rival of Cyrano's is muddled somehow; I suspect it was the father who was Cyrano's rival. Can someone with access to better sources confirm? --Elysdir (talk) 03:11, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
