"The History of Don Quixote, Volume 1, Part 11" by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra is part of a novel originally published in 1605. The story follows Alonso Quijano, a hidalgo who reads so many chivalric romances that he loses his grip on reality and reinvents himself as the knight-errant Don Quixote. Accompanied by his pragmatic squire Sancho Panza, he embarks on misguided adventures, mistaking windmills for giants and inns for castles, determined to revive the age of chivalry in a world that has moved beyond it.
