Summary "El Quijote apócrifo" by Alonso Fernández de Avellaneda is a novel written in the early 17th century. This work is a continuation and parody of Miguel de Cervantes' celebrated story of Don Quixote, introducing new adventures for the infamous knight and his loyal squire, Sancho Panza. The narrative likely explores themes of chivalry, delusion, and the absurdity of pursuing ideals unattainable in a changing world, while following Don Quixote's comedic misadventures. The opening of "El Quijote apócrifo" begins with a prologue that establishes its place as a sequel to Cervantes' original story. It introduces Don Quixote, who has been briefly restored to sanity after his previous exploits. However, the allure of knightly adventures proves too strong, and he soon dabbles in chivalric fantasies once again, seeking to impress a princess named Dulcinea del Toboso. In the narrative, Don Quixote encounters several characters, including his faithful squire Sancho Panza, who expresses skepticism about their pursuits. The dialogue reflects the humor and foibles of the characters, setting the tone for the ensuing adventures that blend comedy with commentary on literature and society.
