Cervantes (Author), Harold Bloom (ed.) Illustrator: . Don Quixote: (Viva Modern Critical Interpretations) Viva Books Private Limited 2007 ISBN: 9788130904658

New Paperback . Great was Don QuixoteaEUR s madness and it was great because the root from which it grew was great: the inextinguishable longing to survive, a source of the most extravagant follies as well as of the most heroic acts. The outstanding banefactors of their father land and of their fellow men have been those who dreamed of eternal name and fame. The loving, frequently irascible relationship between quixote and Sancho is the greatness of the book, more even than the gusto of its representations of natural and social realities. What unites the Don and his squire is both their equally mutual if rather grumpy affection for each other. I cannot think of a fully comparable friendship anywhere else in Western literature, certainly not one that relies so exquisitely upon hilarious conversation. VIVA MODERN CRITICAL INTERPRETATIONS presents the best current criticism on the most widely read and studied poems, novels and dramas of the Western world, from Oedipus Rex and the Iliad to such modern and contemporary works as William FaulkneraEUR s The Sound and the Fury and Don DelilloaEUR s White Noise. Contents: Introduction aEURc Glosses on Don quixote aEURc Voyage with Don Quixote aEURc The truth about Sancho Panza aEURc The Enchanted Dulcinea aEURc The Ironic Hero: Some reflections on Don Quixote aEURc Cruelty and Mystification aEURc Pierre Menard, Author of Don Quixote aEURc Don quixoteaEUR s Profession aEURc The Example of Cervantes aEURc The Hero aEURc Cervantes: The Play of the World Target Audience: Students of Literature, English Department & Printed Pages: 178.

Aus dem Prolog: Müßiger Leser! Ohne daß ich schwöre, magst du mir glauben, daß ich wünsche, dieses Buch, das Kind meines Gehirns, wäre das schönste, lieblichste und verständigste, das man sich nur vorstellen kann. Ich habe aber unmöglich dem Gesetz der Natur zuwiderhandeln können, daß jedes Wesen seinesgleichen hervorbringt. [...] So wird dir denn nun die aufrichtige und unverfälschte Historie des berühmten Don Quixote de la Mancha geschenkt, der, wie alle Einwohner auf dem Gefilde Montiel behaupten, der keuscheste Liebhaber sowie der tapferste Ritter gewesen ist, den man wohl seit vielen Jahren dort bemerkt hat. Ich will den Dienst nicht sehr rühmen, den ich dir damit erweise, daß ich dich mit einem so merkwürdigen und ehrenvollen Ritter bekannt mache; aber das verlange ich von dir, daß du mir für die Bekanntschaft mit seinem Schildknappen Sancho Pansa danken sollst, in welchem ich allen Witz des Schildknappen, der in den unnützen Ritterbüchern zerstreut ist, habe vereinigen wollen. Und hiemit beschütze dich Gott, so wie er auch mich nicht vergessen möge. Lebe wohl!---Zustand: fabelhaftes Exemplar mit geringen Gebrauchsspuren. Buchrücken mit Goldprägung. Weißes Lesebändchen.
