In the
history of the modern novel, the role of Miguel de Cervantes’ Don Quixote
is seminal. This timeless program seeks to understand the monumental
satire’s central underlying themes—individualism, idealism, and imagination,
on the one hand, and deception, manipulation, and disillusionment, on the
other—from the viewpoint of Cervantes’ upbringing and life experiences.
Dramatizations deftly capture the story’s transit from comedy to tragedy.
Interviews with Carlos Fuentes; Cervantes scholars Diana de Armas Wilson and
Henry Sullivan; and John Allen, of The Cervantes Society of America, are
featured. A Discovery University Production. (48 minutes)
