Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published in two parts, in 1605 and 1615, Don Quixote is the most influential work of literature of all time. Millions of people have tried to read and understand it, but very few have succeeded. Actually, Cervantes' Spanish is... weird, and not that Spanish! He uses a lot of pronouns; the syntax is absurd; there are far to many conjunctions (y/and, que/that); the sentences are too long; he keeps repeating the adjectives; he is extraordinarily verbose, which prevents the readers to understand the book. Hence, this have deceived all the translators. Besides, one needs to understand the author's purpose to produce a meaningful translation. Here, the main character is an immature middle-aged man who has decided to live in a twilight zone where his self-respect entices him to ignore reality. Sancho, who resembles Piggy in Lord of the flies, is a kind of impotent reason, an illiterate and penniless man who would like to bring his master to sanity. Unfortunately, society, which is quite immoral and insane, his lack of knowledge and his expectations do not enable him to achieve this goal. Hence, reason ends up raving. I have chosen to explain this novel, not to reproduce its style, which is awful. As for the puns, there are also closely related to the meaning of the original, although they are more idiomatic and sophisticated. Oyez, Oyez, Oyez! For the first time in four centuries, this opus is comprehensible and funny!This book is the first half (from chapter I to chapter XXXIV) of the first volume of Don Quixote.

Book excerpt: James Montgomery's new translation of Don Quixote is the fourth already in the twenty-first century, and it stands with the best of them. It pays particular attention to what may be the hardest aspect of Cervantes's novel to render into English: the humorous passages, particularly those that feature a comic and original use of language. Cervantes would be proud. --Howard Mancing, Professor of Spanish, Purdue University and Vice President, Cervantes Society of America

Millions of people have tried to read and understand it, but very few have succeeded. Actually, Cervantes' Spanish is a bit Andalusian: the way he uses the pronouns and the tenses, his poor syntax, the countless conjunctions (y/and, que/that), endless sentences and a peculiar patois have deceived all the translators.

Download or read book Don Quixote written by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2010-07-06 with total page 1013 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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. Supposedly intended as a parody of the most popular escapist fiction of the day, the 'books of chivalry', this precursor of the modern novel broadened and deepened into a sophisticated, comic account of the contradictions of human nature. Cervantes' greatest work can be enjoyed on many levels, all suffused with a subtle irony that reaches out to encompass the reader.

Download or read book The Man Who Invented Fiction written by William Egginton and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2016-02-02 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early seventeenth century, a crippled, graying, almost toothless veteran of Spain's wars against the Ottoman Empire published a book. It was the story of a poor nobleman, his brain addled from reading too many books of chivalry, who deludes himself that he is a knight errant and sets off on hilarious adventures. That book, Don Quixote, went on to sell more copies than any other book beside the Bible, making its author, Miguel de Cervantes, the single most-read author in human history. Cervantes did more than just publish a bestseller, though. He invented a way of writing. This book is about how Cervantes came to create what we now call fiction, and how fiction changed the world. The Man Who Invented Fiction explores Cervantes's life and the world he lived in, showing how his influences converged in his work, and how his work--especially Don Quixote--radically changed the nature of literature and created a new way of viewing the world. Finally, it explains how that worldview went on to infiltrate art, politics, and science, and how the world today would be unimaginable without it. William Egginton has brought thrilling new meaning to an immortal novel.
