Cyrano de Bergerac was a real swashbuckling duellist of 17th Century France. And he wrote one of the world's first ever fully-fledged sci-fi stories. The 19th Century play about him and the Hollywood adaptation 'Roxanne' starring Steve Martin are great. But the real fellow was not just a big-nosed pretty face. He was a great writer. ðŦð·ðĄðĪšâïļðð
