Don Quixote
This is the story of Alonso Quixano who reads so many chivalric romances he loses his grip on reality, coming to believe these tales involving the heroic exploits of mounted knights to be true. He takes up the lance and armour of a knight himself, renames himself Don Qixote, and embarks upon epic adventures across Spain, with the role of squire taken up by his servant Sancho Panza. The adventures include a number of humorous scenes, whereby Quixote charges at windmills which he perceives as ferocious giants, and stays at an inn which he perceives to be a mighty castle.
