| Summary: | This paper examines the problematic of fiction and reality as mediated by parody in Cervantes' Don Quijote de la Mancha. The approach to the text is meant to see how parody and irony become fundamental strategies to understand the novelistic concept, and how the perceptive reader is permitted to enter into the Cervantine poetic, starting from the paratexts: the Prologue; the opening sonnets, before getting into the core of the work discriminatingly.
In all this procedure fictitious narrators collaborate in the reading of the modernistic novel which Cervantes postulated. It may also be noticed how the different narrators disclose the parodic while allowing a critical-reflexive play in the text. |
