‘Don Quixote’ by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra is a classic novel written during the early 17th century. This groundbreaking work tells the story of an aging gentleman, Don Quixote, who becomes so enamored with tales of knight-errantry that he decides to embark on his own adventures as a self-proclaimed knight, accompanied by his pragmatic squire, Sancho Panza. The book serves as a satirical commentary on the romantic ideals of chivalry and the human experience, exploring themes of reality versus illusion. The opening of ‘Don Quixote’ introduces the protagonist, detailing his characteristics, motivations, and eccentric decision to assume the role of a knight after reading countless books on the subject. He becomes obsessed with the idea of reviving chivalry, despite the world around him having significantly changed. As he sets out on his journey armed with a makeshift suit of armor, he is both comedic and tragic-engaging in misadventures and encounters that illustrate the absurdity of his quest and the complexity of his character. The beginning sets the stage for a rich narrative filled with humor, philosophical depth, and memorable interactions between Don Quixote and Sancho Panza, ultimately inviting readers to ponder the nature of dreams and reality.
