INTRODUCTION
The novel tells of the senseless adventures of Don Quixote,once called Alonso Quixano,a quiet villager living in the Spanish countryside,who becomes enchanted with the idea of knightly courage and gallantry after reading numerous such novels of the time.
Don Quixote takes place during the early seventeenth century,the golden age of Spanish literature, when many of Spain’s greatest literary works were created,a time when Spain experienced an obsession with conquering other lands,thereby calling for novels depicting masculine controlling characters. Miguel Cervantes intended for Don Quixote to ridicule such common novels of the time,stories which p rimarily involved bravery and power.
Though the main character,Don Quixote,foolishly runs off in pursuit of heroism after going mad, receiving little gratitude for his attempts at fearless heroism in the process,some such experiences were based on Cervantes’own time in the Spanish military.

CHAPTER 1

You must know,then,that the above-named gentleman whenever he was at leisure(which was mostly all year-round)gave himself up to reading books of knightly gallantry with such eagerness that he almost entirely neglected the pursuit of his fieldsports,and even the management of his property.
His fancy grew full of what he used to read about in his books;namely,charms,quarrels,battles, challenges,wounds,loves,agonies,and all sorts of impossible nonsense.These thoughts so possessed his mind that the whole fabric of invention and fancy he read of was true,that to him,no history in the world had more reality i ............
