La premiata traduzione del capolavoro epico-finto di Miguel de Cervantes Don Chisciotte è rimasta così affascinata dalla lettura di romanzi cavallereschi che decide di diventare un cavaliere errante e di intraprendere avventure audaci, accompagnato dal suo scudiero, l'astuto Sancho Panza. Mentre vagano insieme per il mondo, la fantasia dell'anziano Don Chisciotte li porta selvaggiamente fuori strada, combattendo contro i mulini a vento, combattendo con i frati e distorcendo il paesaggio rurale spagnolo in una fantasia di fortezze impenetrabili e stregoni malvagi. Allo stesso tempo, la relazione tra i due uomini cresce in un'affascinante sottigliezza. Spesso considerato il primo romanzo moderno, Don Chisciotte è una meravigliosa parodia della letteratura popolare di cui è ossessionato il suo protagonista disordinato. La fondamentale traduzione di Don Chisciotte di John Rutherford ha vinto il Premio Valle Inclan per la traduzione nel 2002. La sua introduzione discute le opere tradizionali parodiate in Don Chisciotte e le questioni della traduzione letteraria. ''John Rutherford rende Don Chisciotte divertente e leggibile. Il suo Don Chisciotte può essere pomposo, imponentemente colto, segretamente timoroso, pazzo e commovente'' Colin Burrow, The Times Literary Supplement.

Miguel Cervantes (Author)
Miguel de Cervantes Saaverda's (1547-1616) life was occupied with a struggle to earn a livelihood from literature and humble government employment. As well as Don Quixote, he wrote a number of plays and a collection of highly accomplished short stories, Exemplary Tales (1613).
Don Quixote has become so entranced by reading romances of chivalry that he determines to become a knight errant and pursue bold adventures, accompanied by his squire, the cunning Sancho Panza. As they roam the world together, the aging Quixote's fancy leads them wildly astray, tilting at windmills, fighting with friars, and distorting the rural Spanish landscape into a fantasy of impenetrable fortresses and wicked sorcerers. At the same time the relationship between the two men grows in fascinating subtlety. Often considered to be the first modern novel, Don Quixote is a wonderful burlesque of the popular literature its disordered protagonist is obsessed with.
