Don Quixote
Author: Miguel de Cervantes SaavedraPublisher: P. F. Collier
ISBN:
Category : Adventure fiction, Spanish
Languages : en
Pages : 556
Book Description
Although published nearly 400 years ago in Spanish, this parody of the chivalrous life remains amazingly familiar in translation today-perhaps from the extensive influence it has played on novelists, playwrights and even composers over the centuries, or perhaps from its eternal story of the childlike and comic view of a decayed world by a madman stuck in a golden past.
Don Quixote as Children's Literature
Author: Velma Bourgeois RichmondPublisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476673608
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 271
Book Description
Cervantes is regarded as the author of the first novel and the inventor of fiction. From its publication in 1605, Don Quixote--recently named the world's best book by authors from 54 countries--has been widely translated and imitated. Among its less acknowledged imitations are stories in children's literature. In context of English adaptation and critical response this book explores the noble and "mad" adventures retold for children by distinguished writers and artists in Edwardian books, collections, home libraries, schoolbooks and picture books. More recent adaptations including comics and graphic novels deviate from traditional retellings. All speak to the knight-errant's lasting influence and appeal to children.
