Cervantes M Don Quixote de La Mancha - Vol I

Bless me! reader, gentle or simple, or whatever you be, how impatiently by this time must you expect this preface, supposing it to be nothing but revengeful invectives against the author of the second Don Quixote. But I must beg your pardon: for I shall say no more of him than everybody says, that Tordesillas is the place where he was begotten, and Tarragona the place where he was born; and. though it be universally said, that even a worm when trod upon, will turn again, yet I am resolved for once to cross the proverb. You perhaps now would have me call him coxcomb, fool, and madman ; but I am of another mind; and so let his folly be its own punishment. But there is something which I cannot so silently pass over: he is pleased to upbraid me with my age: indeed, had it been in the power of man to stop the career of "me, I would not have suffered the old gentleman to have laid his fingers on me

Don Quixote, originally published in two parts in 1605 and 1615, stands as Cervantes' belated but colossal literary success. A work which has achieved mythic status, it is considered to have pioneered the modern novel. Don Quixote, a poor gentleman from La Mancha, Spain, entranced by the code of chivalry, seeks romantic honor through absurd and fantastic adventures. His fevered imagination turns everyday objects into heroic opponents and stepping stones to greater glory; each exploit serves as a comic, yet disturbing commentary on the psychological struggle between reality and illusion, fact and fiction. This celebrated translation by Charles Jarvis offers a new introduction and notes which provide essential background information

Don Quixote fully titled The history of the valorous and wittie Knight-Errant Don-Quixote of the Mancha. It has been translated, into more than 60 languages. The story follows the adventures of an hidalgo who reads so many chivalric romances that he loses his sanity and decides to set out to revive chivalry, undo wrongs, and bring justice to the world

La face cachée de Jean de La Fontaine, auteur de contes strictement réservés aux adultes • Jean de La Fontaine aura toujours côtoyé les fossés de l’interdit jusqu’à y tomber en 1675, avec ces contes, objets d’une sentence très sévère du lieutenant de police La Reynie, qui en décréta la saisie car « remplis de termes indiscrets et malhonnêtes, et dont la lecture ne peut avoir d’autres effets que celui de corrompre les bonnes mœurs et d’inspirer le libertinage ». Sans compter quelques critiques puritaines qui le poursuivirent jusqu’à sa mort. Mais quelque grâce veillait aussi sur sa tête, jusqu’à lui accorder, après quelques hésitations de Louis XIV, son entrée à l’Académie en 1684 — accompagnée il est vrai du reniement formel de ces textes sulfureux mais « inimitables », comme disent Bayle et Chamfort
