Summary: "Don Quijote de la Mancha" by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra is a novel written in the early 17th century. The story unfolds in Spain and follows the misadventures of an aging nobleman, Don Quijote, whose passion for chivalric romances drives him to become a self-styled knight-errant. Determined to revive the lost values of knighthood, he sets out to perform grand deeds, often misunderstanding the world around him in humorous and tragic ways. At the start of the novel, the readers are introduced to Don Quijote, who has become so infatuated with tales of chivalry that he has lost his sanity. He decides to embark on a quest to become a knight-errant, gathering mismatched armor and renaming himself. Throughout the opening chapters, Cervantes presents Quijote's preparations, including defining his noble steed Rocinante and choosing his love interest—an idealized woman he nicknames Dulcinea del Toboso—despite never having met her. The unfolding narrative highlights Quijote’s first forays into the world of adventure, filled with misguided confrontations and the comical consequences of his delusions.
