Don Quixote
Autor Miguel Cervantes Traducere de John Rutherforden Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 ian 2003
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 Quixoteis a wonderful burlesque of the popular literature its disordered protagonist is obsessed with.
John Rutherford's landmark translation ofDon Quixotewon the 2002 Premio Valle Inclan prize for translation. His introduction discusses the traditional works parodied inDon Quixoteand issues of literary translation.
'John Rutherford makesDon Quixotefunny and readable ... His Quixote can be pompous, imposingly learned, secretly fearful, mad and touching' Colin Burrow,The Times Literary Supplement
