17) Miguel de Cervantes’ Don Quixote: the novel and its influence since 1605

講義内容

Cervantes' famous novel is one of the great works of literature that everyone knows but few have read. That is to say that people know it by its influence, or through the works of the many writers who have borrowed and copied from it. This course will be too short to cover the entire novel, and many students will not have time to finish reading it, but we will study selected chapters, essays about the novel, and examples of other works of fiction that were influenced by it.
