Don Quijote Y Rocinante: Un Paralelismo Textual Con Ecos Iconográficos, Fernando Ruiz García
Don Quijote Y Rocinante: Un Paralelismo Textual Con Ecos Iconográficos, Fernando Ruiz García
Vernacular: New Connections in Language, Literature, & Culture
The present paper aims to highlight the relationship between Don Quixote and his steed Rocinante, which constitutes a direct parallel that will be extrapolated to the iconographic plane, varying depending on the historical moment. To achieve this objective we will establish a chronology of the main illustrated editions of Don Quixote, which analyzes the most important images of each character based on the art and thought of the respective period. Finally, the characterization of Rocinante as a reflection of the hidalgo will be explored in order to deepen the relationship between the two and justify the parallels observed in the …
Don Quixote And Catholicism, Michael Mcgrath
Don Quixote And Catholicism, Michael Mcgrath
Purdue Studies in Romance Literatures
Four hundred years since its publication, Miguel de Cervantes’s Don Quixote continues to inspire and to challenge its readers. The universal and timeless appeal of the novel, however, has distanced its hero from its author and its author from his own life and the time in which he lived. The discussion of the novel’s Catholic identity, therefore, is based on a reading that returns Cervantes’s hero to Cervantes’s text and Cervantes to the events that most shaped his life. The authors and texts McGrath cites, as well as his arguments and interpretations, are mediated by his religious sensibility. Consequently, he …
Don Quixote In Russia In The 1920s-1930s: The Problem Of Perception And Interpretation, Slav N. Gratchev
Don Quixote In Russia In The 1920s-1930s: The Problem Of Perception And Interpretation, Slav N. Gratchev
Modern Languages Faculty Research
This study logically continues my previous examination of the perception of Don Quixote in Russia throughout the early twentieth century and how this perception changed over time. In this new article, which will be the third in a sequence of five, I will again use a number of materials inaccessible to English-speaking scholars to demonstrate how the perception of Don Quixote by Russian intelligentsia shifted from being skeptical to complete admiration and even glorification of the hero. Don Quixote was increasingly compared with Prometheus, the most powerful and most romanticized personage of Greek methodology. Indeed, “. . . начав юмористический …
Los Nuevos Románticos: Don Quijote En La Economía Irracional, La Gestión Empresarial Y El Liderazgo, Aurora Hermida-Ruiz
Los Nuevos Románticos: Don Quijote En La Economía Irracional, La Gestión Empresarial Y El Liderazgo, Aurora Hermida-Ruiz
Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications
This article calls attention to the recent appearance of Don Quixote in the "real world" of economics, business management, and leadership development as a new, but mostly unnoticed chapter in the reading history of Cervantes's work. Providing an overview of this relatively new phenomenon, the article focuses on the pervasive influence of an unlikely defender of the "romantic approach": Stanford Graduate School of Business professor James March, an acclaimed intellectual and founding member of the revolutionary School of Behavioral Economics, whose original use of Don Quixote in leadership studies was ironically meant to provide a humanist antidote to the spread …
Psychological Pathology And Aging In Cervantes’S Don Quixote De La Mancha, Ida Sudol
Psychological Pathology And Aging In Cervantes’S Don Quixote De La Mancha, Ida Sudol
Hispanic Studies Honors Papers
Miguel de Cervantes wrote his most famous work, Don Quixote de La Mancha, in a prison cell after a life of great misfortune. The work he created, however, changed his fate, and to this day lives on as one of the most-read pieces of all time. Unique to Cervantes’s literary creation is the applicability of its themes across history. Though the setting is 16th-Century Spain, the topics of the work include aspects of psychopathology, personality, and aging. This synthesis of psychology, philosophy, and human character outlines concepts that would benefit clinicians in their understanding of geriatric patients, which is among …
Quixano As Reader, Quixote As Author, Stephanie Bowar
Quixano As Reader, Quixote As Author, Stephanie Bowar
Oglethorpe Journal of Undergraduate Research
Cervantes' 17th century novel, Don Quixote, details the story of passive, stagnant Alonso Quixano, who then abruptly declares himself Don Quixote, a chivalric knight who goes on to fight passionately for his identity and reality. In his dying moments, however, he once more becomes Alonso Quixano, just as abruptly renouncing his previously-claimed identity. Cervantes' work demands discussions of reality, identity, and above all, authenticity. The following paper explores the differences between Alonso Quixano and Don Quixote on these fronts, and argues that Don Quixote, author of his own life, demonstrates authenticity, while Alonso Quixano does not.
"Maese Pedro" Y Sei Personaggi In Cerca D'Autore: Procedimientos Teatrales De La Narrativa Cervantina En La Obra De Luigi Pirandello, Mara Theodoritsi
"Maese Pedro" Y Sei Personaggi In Cerca D'Autore: Procedimientos Teatrales De La Narrativa Cervantina En La Obra De Luigi Pirandello, Mara Theodoritsi
Theses and Dissertations - UTB/UTPA
The present thesis carries out a comparative analysis of the episode maese Pedro, included in the second part of Miguel de Cervantes’s Don Quixote (1615), and Luigi Pirandello’s Six Characters in Search of an Author (1921) in order to explore the resonance of Cervantes in Pirandello’s play. Particular attention is paid to the dramatic techniques developed by Cervantes in his narrative and their reflection in the work of the Italian playwright and Nobel laureate. Drawing on previous studies that have addressed the influence of Cervantes on Pirandello and emphasizing the two-way influence between the Spanish and the Italian literary traditions …

The Subtle Arbitrios Of Cervantes: Don Quijote As A Cautionary Tale For Leaders, Jonathan Edwin Olson
The Subtle Arbitrios Of Cervantes: Don Quijote As A Cautionary Tale For Leaders, Jonathan Edwin Olson
All Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Other Capstone Projects
Miguel de Cervantes was clearly a man who had an interest in leadership. He sought leadership positions for himself during his life, and his works often include treatments of leadership issues. However, there are only three studies of leadership in his most important work, Don Quijote, and all are seriously flawed due to their failure to interpret passages from the novel in their context. This study uses a historical-grammatical hermeneutic to correct this error. Through a close reading of the text, this study demonstrates that Cervantes has encoded warnings for leaders in Don Quixote.
