商品簡介
Don Quixote of La Mancha is considered the most popular book in history after the Bible, and has been called the first modern novel. One might even say that this tragi-comic work is far more than a novel: It is a manual for life, with lessons on how to love, dream, age, and be a friend. It encourages engagement with the essential questions: Who am I? Why am I here? What is my responsibility toward others? What is the meaning of being mortal? Furthermore, it is a book about books, about the act—and art—of reading, and about the imagination as the engine that makes us move.
In an unnamed village in La Mancha, Spain, a nobleman named Alonso Quijano is completely consumed by the countless chivalry novels he reads, and reimagines himself as the valiant knight, Don Quixote. With his loyal squire, Sancho Panza, Don Quixote sets off on a series of misadventures, battling fictitious enemies for the sake of gallantry.
In the words of scholar Ilan Stavans, Don Quixote is “fluid, inexhaustible, and magical.” For the four-hundredth anniversary of its publication and its author’s death, Restless Books releases a beautiful new edition of this timeless work with a brand-new introduction from Stavans, astounding original illustrations by the artist Eko, and wealth of linked interactive, multimedia material to help introduce you to the inner workings of this classic text.
作者簡介
Ilan Stavans is the publisher of Restless Books and Lewis-Sebring Professor in Latin American and Latino Culture at Amherst College. His books include, most recently,Reclaiming Travel (Duke, co-written with Joshua Ellison) and Quixote: The Novel and the World (Norton).
British translator John Ormsby (1829-1895) was most famous for his 1885 translation of Miguel de Cervantes’Don Quixote de la Mancha, perhaps the most thorough and accurate English translation of the novel up to that time. His translation went through more editions than any other nineteenth-century version of the novel and was the first English version of the book to appear complete on the Internet. In his introduction, Ormsby scrutinized every previous major English version ofDon Quixote and offered a controversial analysis of the work, critiquing Cervantes’ writing style and refuting the commonly held view that Don Quixote is an innately noble character.
