5.0 out of 5 stars Literatura universal desde España!, September 28, 2001
Cuando yo estaba en la escuela y leí el Quijote por primera vez, la edición tenía un comentario que decía: "A Cervantes le bastó un sólo brazo para edificar la catedral de la literatura universal". Un poco exagerado (los españoles exageran casi siempre), pero no cabe duda que el Quijote a dejado huellas en la literatura universal y ha influenciado a tantos autores, como por ejemplo a Tolstoi. Muchos frases idiomáticas han sobrevivido los siglos no sólo en Castellano, sino también en otros idiomas tan exóticos como Alemán (mit Windmühlen kämpfen = acometer molinos de viento) o Ruso. Sinceramente El Quijote exije mucho del lector. Es una novela que hace que uno piense sobre muchos los fines de la vida. Y aunque no lo crean a veces se entiende mejor en otro idioma. Yo lo he leído en Alemán y Ruso y puedo afirmar eso.

5.0 out of 5 stars Un libro tan excelente que ha durada siglos, July 23, 1999
By A Customer
Ya no es original loar el libro Don Quijote de la Mancha (I y II)pero es obvio por que esta obra influyo y todavia influye muchas escritores incluyendo Garcia Marquez (cien anos) y Borges(su cuento en que un autor intenta re-escribir la obra). El primer volumen es mucho mas comico (la imagen famosa de Quijote atacando los molinos viene de este volumen) y el segundo es mas tragico cuando el lector se da cuenta del cuesto humano de la locura del hidalgo y tambien la inhumanidad do los demas. Analiza lo que es ser loco, el dano de obsesionar en cosas del pasado y, ademas de otras temas, la importancia de la amistad (como la entre Quijote y Sancho Panza) Una obra particular que mas ciertamente merece su titulo como clasico.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book, illustrations., March 17, 2006
This review is from: Don Quijote de la Mancha (Grandes clasicos series) (Hardcover)
Despite the fact that the materials that went into the construction of this book seem somewhat second-rate (thick, rough-edged paper, for one thing), it is really a good buy for less than fifteen dollars. Having Don Quixote in the original Spanish along with the classic Dore illustrations has been a real treat, I would recommend this edition to any lover of the Classics on a tight budget.
