Paper Summary:

This paper describes examples from the novel "Cyrano de Bergerac" regarding how the character of Cyrano is symbolically linked to the fall of a plume (a feather), which is flighty, peaceful and whimsical, all that can be seen in Cyrano.

From the Paper:

"In Edmond Rostand's literary masterpiece, Cyrano de Bergerac, a tale of Cyrano, a man who declares his love for a woman by giving another man his words to use on her himself, it is apparent that panache, described both figuratively and literally, are intertwined to symbolically describe the hero of the comedy, Cyrano."
