Beschreibung
"Don Quixote" is a novel written by Miguel de Cervantes and published in two parts, in 1605 and 1615. It is one of the most famous works in world literature.
The novel tells the adventures of a nobleman named Alonso Quichano, who becomes obsessed with chivalry tales and decides to become a knight-errant under the name Don Quixote. With his squire, Sancho Panza, Don Quixote sets out on a quest for heroic adventures to defend the oppressed and restore justice in what he sees as a corrupted world.
However, Don Quixote's exploits are often marked by his madness and vivid imagination. He confuses reality with the illusions he creates, mistaking windmills for giants and inns for castles. Despite this, Don Quixote inspires admiration and compassion from those he encounters.
The novel explores profound themes such as madness, reality, idealism, and disillusionment. It highlights the contradictions of Spanish society in the 17th century and offers a reflection on the nature of fiction and truth.
"Don Quixote" is not only a satirical critique of the popular chivalry novels of its time but also a meditation on the human condition, the search for meaning, and the limits of illusion. The work is considered one of the masterpieces of Spanish literature and a foundational work of Western literature.
