“Diana de Armas Wilson’s introductory study captures the true essence of why Cervantes’s novel has become a valuable piece of our shared cultural heritage. Humour, satire, and the religious and political conflicts that plagued the era all form part of Cervantes’s great vision, and Wilson’s study provides thorough analysis of why we still want to read the adventures of his would-be knight errant and his loyal squire over four centuries later.” ―AARON KAHN, University of SussexThis Norton Critical Edition includes:Burton Raffel’s masterful translation (“Indeed, Raffel seems to have created a Cervantine English” ― Javier Herrero, University of Virginia), lightly revised by Diana de Armas Wilson, and including the translator’s note.A revised and expanded introduction as well as revised and expanded explanatory footnotes by Diana de Armas Wilson.A rich selection of contextual materials, including related writings by Cervantes and his contemporaries as well as a modern account of Don Quijote’s influence over five centuries.Fifteen critical essays―seven of them new to the Second Edition―thematically organized to maximize classroom discussion.
