The Adventures of Ulysses
Don Quixote as Children's Literature
Author: Velma Bourgeois Richmond
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 147663243X
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.
