About this deal

Segundo tomo del ingenioso hidalgo don Quijote de la Mancha [ Wikidata] by pseudonymous Alonso Fernández de Avellaneda. An unauthorized sequel to the first volume by Cervantes.

Cervantes makes a number of references to the Italian poem Orlando furioso. In chapter 10 of the first part of the novel, Don Quixote says he must take the magical helmet of Mambrino, an episode from Canto I of Orlando, and itself a reference to Matteo Maria Boiardo's Orlando innamorato. [26] The interpolated story in chapter 33 of Part four of the First Part is a retelling of a tale from Canto 43 of Orlando, regarding a man who tests the fidelity of his wife.

The Spanish word for pudding ( budín), however, does not appear in the original text but premieres in the Motteux translation.

Father Quixote stood there watching on Golgotha as Christ stepped down from the Cross triumphant and acclaimed. There was no ambiguity, no room for doubt and no room for faith at all. The whole world knew with certainty that Christ was the Son of God. While Quixote lies unconscious in his bed, his niece, the housekeeper, the parish curate, and the local barber burn most of his chivalric and other books. They seal up the room which contained the library, later telling Quixote that it was done by a wizard.

Some modern scholars suggest that Don Quixote's fictional encounter with Avellaneda's book in Chapter 59 of Part II should not be taken as the date that Cervantes encountered it, which may have been much earlier. An Adventure of Don Quixote, a musical drama by Sir George Alexander Macfarren premiered at Drury Lane Theatre. Its full title is The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha or, in Spanish, El ingenioso hidalgo don Quixote de la Mancha (Pronunciation: Spanish: [el iŋxeˈnjosojˈðalɣo ðoŋ kiˈxote ðe la ˈmantʃa] ⓘ), Early Modern Spanish: [el inʃeˈnjos̺ojˈðalɣo ðoŋ kiˈʃote ðe la ˈmantʃa, -ˈnjos̺o hiˈðalɣo-]) . In Part 2, hidalgo is replaced with caballero (Pronunciation: Spanish pronunciation: [kaβaˈʎeɾo], meaning "knight".

Avellaneda's identity has been the subject of many theories, but there is no consensus as to who he was. In its prologue, the author gratuitously insulted Cervantes, who took offense and responded; the last half of Chapter LIX and most of the following chapters of Cervantes's Segunda Parte lend some insight into the effects upon him; Cervantes manages to work in some subtle digs at Avellaneda's own work, and in his preface to Part II, comes very near to criticizing Avellaneda directly. Have Gun - Will Travel (American TV series), an American western series that features multiple mentions to Don Quixote, including an episode titled " A Knight to Remember" where the main character is employed to capture and defeat an elderly man who believes he is Don Quixote and whose only wish is to achieve knighthood.
