Translated by John Ormsby
The History of Don Quixote, Volume 2, Part 21, written by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra and first published in 1605, continues the misadventures of the deluded nobleman Don Quixote and his squire Sancho Panza. In this volume, they encounter a theatrical troupe, leading to humorous misunderstandings and conflicts that highlight the clash between illusion and reality. This work is notable for its critique of 16th-century Spanish society and its influence on the development of the novel as a literary form.
