Calderon's Family Motto.

"POR LA FE MORIRE". --
FOR THE FAITH WELCOME DEATH.


THIS motto is taken from the engraved coat of arms prefixed to an
historical account of "the very noble and ancient house of Calderon de
la Barca"--a rather scarce work which I have never seen alluded to in
any account of the poet. The circumstances from which the motto was
assigned to the family are given with some minuteness at pp. 56 and 57
of the work referred to. It is enough to mention that the martyr who
first used the expression was Don Sancho Ortiz Calderon de la Barca, a
Commander of the Order of Santiago. He was in the service of the
renowned king, Don Alfonso the Wise, towards the close of the thirteenth
century, and having been taken prisoner by the Moors before Gibraltar,
he was offered his life on the usual conditions of apostasy. But he
refused all overtures, saying: "Pues mi Dios por mi muri

Klidsa (Devangar: servant of Kali) was a renowned Classical Sanskrit poet and dramatist, author of Meghadta, Abhijnashkuntala and Kumrasambhava , among other well-known works. His floruit cannot be dated with precision, but most likely falls within the Gupta period, probably in the 4th or 5th century.

James Oliver Curwood, (June 12, 1878 August 13, 1927), was an American novelist and conservationist. A great number of his works were turned into movies, several of which starred Nell Shipman as a brave and adventurous woman in the wilds of the north. Many films from Curwoods writings were made during his lifetime, as well as after his passing through to the 1950s. In 1988 French director Jean-Jacques Annaud used his 1916 novel, The Grizzly King to make the film The Bear. Annauds success generated a renewed interest in Curwoods stories that resulted in five more films being produced in 1994 and 1995.
