Description This appendix is a contribution to source studies of Calderon's Life is a Dream, an extract from Deník o jízdě a putování pana Lva z Rožmitálu a z Blatné... (Commentarius brevis et iucundus itineris atque peregrinationis) by Václav Šašek z Bířkova. The text suggests a possible existence of a 15th-century legend from around Salamanca in Spain, which could have been known and used by Calderon.
