A well-known adventure of the insane knight errant Don Quixote and his down to earth squire, Sancho Panza, hardly needs introduction to adults. Best-selling novel and in the eyes of most of the world, the greatest novel of all time, “Don Quixote“ by Miguel de Cervantes is a story of a man more optimistic and idealistic than any other in literature. Writing this book, Cervantes intended to create a parody of the many romances of chivalry which were circulating in those times. This lager-than-life book will grab readers' imaginations, carrying it away to follow the adventures, comic and tragic, of a mad Knight of the Sad Countenance.
Travelling throughout devastated and oppressed Spain of the 16th century, Don Quixote was always ready for the chivalrous deeds for the sake of love to human beings, though life roughly destroys his illusions. Noble, courageous and generous, but completely torn apart from real life, this character personifies the humanist’s tragedy, seeing the impossibility of ideals, concerning harmony of human relations.
