　　Don Quixote takes place during the early seventeenth century, the golden age of Spanish literature, when many of Spain’s greatest literary works were created, a time when Spain experienced an obsession with conquering other lands, thereby calling for novels depicting masculine controlling characters. Miguel Cervantes intended for Don Quixote to ridicule such common novels of the time, stories which primarily involved bravery and power.

　　The book Don Quixote is about the man Don Quixote of La Mancha, a poor gentleman in Spain. He was in his fifties. His fancy grew full of what he used to read about in his books, namely, charms, quarrels, battles, challenges, wounds, loves, agonies, and all sorts of impossible nonsense. There thoughts so possessed his mind that the whole fabric of inventions and fancy he need of was true, that to him, no history in the world had more reality in it. In short, his wits being quite, he hit upon the strangest notion that he fancied it was right and necessary that he should make a knight of himself. He planned to room the world over in full armor and on horseback in the quest of adventure, righting every wrong, exposing himself to peril and change in the process to reap eternal fame and glory.

　　Don Quixote had three times of adventures, and he declared his horse to be called Rocinante。He put on his suit of armor, placed his mended bowl on his head for a helmet, mounted Rocinante, and began his first adventure. Then, he found that a knight without love was like a tree without leaves or fruits. So, when he came upon on inn in the nearby village of Toboso which is a small town not very far away from his village, and was soon in the presence of a rather simple peasant woman, and thus declared her to be a princess, addressing her with the name, Dulcinea, in whose service he swore to honor eternally. Actually, the princess he called is really a peasant girl, but in his eyes, she is the most beautiful and charming girl in the world. His attendant, Sancho, once described the girl with peasant background, lack of any kind of knowledge but good at farm labors, and people can here her in five miles away when she quarreled whit others at the village.

　　The first adventure of Don Quixote’s cost him two days. During his first adventure, he did many crazy things. He regarded a small inn as a big castle and the owner of the inn as the master of the city, so he asked the inn’s owner to pronounce him as a knight. The owner was shocked by his madness, so he did as Don Quixote asked. He also saved a boy under the glory of night, because the boy lost his master’s sheep and was flagged. So Don Quixote saved the boy and asked the master let thy boy go. But unfortunately, when he left the boy, he was caught by his master again and suffered a bitter flag. At last, he was bated too bad to move on the ground by a businessman mounting a horse. Finally, a man in his village found him and brought him home. His friends, the barber and priest burned his books of knights.

　　The second adventure of Don Quixote’s took place after 15 days, Don Quixote persuaded a silly farmer to be his attendant, and made promised to give Sancho, the attendant, an island to govern. Then the two men left their village and want to room the world. But one night when they slept in an inn, a girl who loves the waiter of the inn went to find the waiter, but Don Quixote thought that this girl must be his courter. So he quarreled and had a fight with the waiter. Latter, when the fact came to the light, Don Quixote felt shameful and left the inn quickly. Then, after doing many other funny and mystical things, Don Quixote were been put into a box made by wooden and brought back home. That’s the end of his second adventure.
