From Library Journal
For nearly half a century the recently deceased Gilman, even when writing well-known studies on the Celestina and Galdos, devoted much of his academic career to Cervantes scholarship. These four erudite essays, expanded revisions of earlier and not readily available lectures written expressly for non-Hispanist comparatists and literary theorists, analyze the circumstances of the composition of the Cervantine prototype in the broader context of its creation within the framework of the rise of the modern novel. Only a superfluous appendix with anachronistic references to Sartre and Camus detracts from this otherwise unquestionable addition to Quixote studies for most academic libraries.
