Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes
Alonso Quijano assumes knighthood; windmills become giants.
Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes is often called the first modern novel. It follows a man undone by stories of knighthood who sets out to live them, turning parody into philosophy. Cervantes built his work from the bones of medieval chivalric romances, creating both a satire of their excess and a reflection on imagination, delusion, and faith.
