This foundational work of Western literature, Don Quixote, chronicles the misadventures of an aging nobleman who, having read too many chivalric romances, sets out as a knight-errant to revive chivalry and serve his nation. Cervantes masterfully presents a satirical yet poignant narrative, blending elements of comedy, tragedy, and philosophical inquiry into the nature of idealism and reality. The novel illustrates the enduring power of imagination against the backdrop of a pragmatic world, as the protagonist and his squire Sancho Panza encounter a series of humorous and often heartbreaking situations. Its witty prose and profound character studies have cemented its place as a timeless classic, influencing countless authors and artists across centuries.
