Book Synopsis Don Quixote in England by : Ronald Paulson
Download or read book Don Quixote in England written by Ronald Paulson and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A significant reassessment of current assumptions about eighteenth-century literature and art. Seldom has a single book, much less a translation, so deeply affected English literature as the translation of Cervantes' Don Quixote in 1612. The comic novel inspired drawings, plays, sermons, and other translations, making the name of the Knight of la Mancha as familiar as any folk character in English lore. In this comprehensive study of the reception and conversion of Don Quixote in England, Ronald Paulson highlights the qualities of the novel that most attracted English imitators. The English Don Quixote was not the same knight who meandered through Spain, or found a place in other translations throughout Europe. The English Don Quixote found employment in all sorts of specifically English ways, not excluding the political uses to which a Spanish fool could be turned. According to Paulson, a major impact of the novel and its hero was their stimulation of discussion about comedy itself, what he calls the "aesthetics of laughter." When Don Quixote reached England he did so at the time of the rise of empiricism, and adherents of both sides of the empiricist debate found arguments and evidence in the behavior and image of the noble knight. Four powerful disputes battered around his grey head: the proximity of madness and imagination; the definition of the beautiful; the cruelty of ridicule and its laughter; and the role of reason in the face of madness. Paulson's engaging account leads to a significant reassessment of current assumptions about eighteenth-century literature and art.

Book Synopsis Who Wrote Don Quixote? by : Francis Carr
Download or read book Who Wrote Don Quixote? written by Francis Carr and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-28 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What evidence is there that Miguel de Cervantes wrote Don Quixote? There is no manuscript, no letter, no diary, no will, no document that proves that he wrote this masterpiece. There is no portrait, no marked grave, and no record of any payment for Don Quixote, although it became popular in Spain and abroad during his lifetime. What do we know about Thomas Shelton, whose translation has won the praise of literary historians ever since it appeared in this country in 1612? What do we know of Cid Hamet Benengeli, the Arabian historian, who, we are told by Cervantes, is the real author?Until now no proper attempt has been made to place Don Quixote in the wider context of European literature, of the great works of writers and dramatists of this period. And no-one has studied the Shelton text. which is seldom read today.After an examination of the actual publication of this work in Madrid and in London, revealing a surprising proximity in dates of registration, the story of Don Quixote's adventures in Spain is looked into, and some surprising details emerge, which show a remarkable understanding of English history and English folklore. The story takes us from La Mancha to Sussex, from Madrid to London, to the court of Queen Elizabeth and King James.

Book Synopsis The Man Who Invented Fiction by : William Egginton
Download or read book The Man Who Invented Fiction written by William Egginton and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2017-01-10 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A heroic history of novel-reading itself.” --The Atlantic In the early seventeenth century, a crippled, graying, almost toothless veteran of Spain's wars against the Ottoman Empire published a book. It was the story of a poor nobleman, his brain addled from reading too many books of chivalry, who deludes himself that he is a knight errant and sets off on hilarious adventures. That book, Don Quixote, went on to sell more copies than any other book beside the Bible, making its author, Miguel de Cervantes, the single most-read author in human history. Cervantes did more than just publish a bestseller, though. He invented a way of writing. This book is about how Cervantes came to create what we now call fiction, and how fiction changed the world. The Man Who Invented Fiction explores Cervantes's life and the world he lived in, showing how his influences converged in his work, and how his work--especially Don Quixote--radically changed the nature of literature and created a new way of viewing the world. Finally, it explains how that worldview went on to infiltrate art, politics, and science, and how the world today would be unimaginable without it. William Egginton has brought thrilling new meaning to an immortal novel.
