	[minstrels] Twenty Ways to Insult a Nose -- Edmond Rostand
		He has been the basis of many romantic but unhistorical legends, of which the best known is Edmond Rostand's play Cyrano de Bergerac (1897), in which he is portrayed as a gallant and brilliant but shy and ugly lover, possessed (as in fact he was) of a remarkably large nose.
		But Rostand's stirring and colourful historical play, with its dazzling versification, skillful blend of comedy and pathos, and fast-moving plot, provided welcome relief from the grim dramas of the naturalists and Symbolists.
		Indeed, Rostand is listed in the writing credits, and it explicitly says 'based on the play "Cyrano de Bergerac"'.
