Sinopsis
This dictionary offers readers the chance to survey Cervantes’ life and oeuvre as they please through more than 130 entries that make it possible to focus on his family environment, the cities he lived in, his military campaigns and captivity in Algiers, his intellectual background, his attitude to the world and the Spain of his day, his literary output and his posthumous fame.
Anyone who browses through its pages will find current knowledge – divested of legend – where as yet unresolved debates are cautiously addressed: Cervantes’ origins, his departure for Italy, his attempts to escape, his love affairs, his imprisonments, his ideological choices, his lost or attributed works, his poetic disillusionments and his frustrations at the success of more fortunate rivals.
The appeal Cervantes continues to hold today is due above all to Don Quixote. His masterpiece and the mark it has left on those who have reflected on it are accordingly given the space they deserve: the book examines its reception in art (Goya, Doré, Dalí, Picasso), music (Purcell, Telemann, Massenet, Strauss, Falla), film (Pabst, Welles, Gutiérrez Aragón), criticism (Unamuno, Ortega y Gasset, Mann, Marthe Robert, Foucault) and literature (Sterne, Diderot, Flaubert, Dostoyevsky, Galdós, Kafka, Borges).
