We will spend the semester exploring the array of themes and characters elaborated by Cervantes in his influential masterpiece, and we will make connections to some of the many takes on Don Quixote in other literatures and media. Historical and theoretical information, as well as close reading, will shape our understanding of this work of art which has left an impact on numerous European and American novels.
