Sobre este artículo
London: Macmillan and Co, 1908. Finely bound English translation of Cervantes' masterpiece. Octavo, three volumes, bound in three quarters morocco over marbled boards, gilt titles to the spine, raised bands, top edge gilt, marbled endpapers. In fine condition. Translated by Thomas Shelton. A very attractive set. Often cited as the first modern novel, Cervantes' masterpiece Don Quixote remains not only the most influential work of literature to emerge from the Spanish Golden Age, but the most important work of the entire Spanish literary canon. For its influence, innovation and critical status, it is "to Spanish literature what Shakespeare is to English" (Bloom) and has become globally regarded as "one of those universal works which are read by all ages at all times" (PMM).
