Don Quixote. A set of 2 volumes. Cervantes Savedra M. de

What can be said about the best novel by Miguel Cervantes, which would no longer be said? Don Quixote is four hundred years and almost all this time he stands in the first ten great books of mankind. And the Nobel Institute declared it the best work of art in the history of world literature.

Started as a parody of knightly novels - fantasy of that time - Don Quixote absorbed all the layers of the Renaissance. The Moorish novels, the Plutovsky romance, the Spanish romaras, the poems of the Italian Renaissance - everything was reflected in this great work. In turn, the master of Cervantes had a tremendous influence on the development of world literature and art.

But the most important thing is that after four hundred years, Don Quixote remains damn fascinating reading!
