Don Quixote de la Mancha - The Great Geniuses of World Literature 1

The immortal story of the Knight of the Sorrowful Countenance, who, accompanied by his faithful squire, Sancho Panza, travels through hills and valleys, fighting windmills and imaginary knights in the name of justice. A portrait of the anti-hero, Don Quixote, the deranged nobleman, represents man's capacity for transformation in pursuit of his ideals.
This great book is much more than a chivalric romance. On the contrary, by satirizing the chivalric romances in vogue throughout the 16th and 17th centuries, Don Quixote establishes itself as the founding classic of the modern novel. The humour, digressions and reflections, the orality in the speech, and the metalanguage marked the end of the Middle Ages in literature.
Full of adventures and fantastic situations, this has been considered an unforgettable book for successive generations of readers.
