The first thing I do when I am about to read a book that was originally written in a language I cannot read, is search various sites to discover which version is known as the best translation -- this particular item (translated by Lathrop) is known as one of the best. Next is enjoying the text. While there are many incidents in this story that will evoke sadness, it drips with so much irony, humor, and wit that the melancholy is soon forgotten. If you have taken on faith what we have heard about Don Quixote and Sancho, that is, what passes as common knowledge about them, you will be surprised -- especially by Sancho. We are told that Don Quixote is a classic, and when we finally read it, we may wonder how it achieved that status, because surely most contemporary readers will have little patience for a work this lengthy that takes so many detours. The tags "loyalty," "truth," "deception," and "values" are most appropriate. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Cervantes' tale of the deranged gentleman who turns knight-errant, tilts at windmills and battles with sheep in the service of the lady of his dreams, Dulcinea del Toboso, has fascinated generations of readers, and inspired other creative artists such as Flaubert, Picasso and Richard Strauss. The tall, thin knight and his short, fat squire, Sancho Panza, have found their way into films, cartoons and even computer games. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
