My three chosen websites:
1
Under the Influence of Cervantes:
Tapiello’s Al morir Don Quijote
Article
by the Dr.Isidoro Arén Janeiro. I decided to start my paper from this article,
with lots of topics and I decided to write about “During and After the Death of
Don Quixote”. Here it is very well explained what happens when Don Quixote die,
what happened to all the characters. It deals also with the last scene Don
Quixote Part 2, when Don Quixote is on his bed prepared to die.

The
Three Deaths of Don Quixote: Comments in Favor of the Romantic Critical Approach
Article
by A.G.Loré. It is a very interesting article that explains what the three
deaths of Don Quixote are for the writer. The first one,
The would-be knight-errant, Don
Quixote de

3.
The
democracy of Don Quixote
Article
by Jonathan Rée. I have found that interesting article about the Democracy of
Don Quixote, the third website for my project; it is a very interesting site.
That article speaks about a lot of topics, including the death of Don Quixote,
and the conclusion of the article is that Don Quixote is a 21st-century
novel.

of all the articles:

You have
to register and pay 16 euros, but I think that is not an expense, it is an
investment, since they are lots of interesting articles.
They are
another article about Don Quixote.
I like
lots of articles in this page, but I don´t like the one by Julian Evans:
A rational Quixote because it speaks too much about politics and I don’t
want to base my project on this.
http://www.prospect-magazine.co.uk/article_details.php?id=6892
In my
opinion the best articles are:
The Library of Google

My research
10-29-2009
At first
I visited lots of webs that only want to sell me books, but in googlebooks I
found some interesting ones:
1.
The
World of Cervantes and Don Quixote
It is very good to read a biography of
Cervantes, since it appears chronologically and well explained. Then appears an
Introduction, some notes about the translator, a preface and the book, in what
for me is a good translation. It seems me good but it was not what I was looking
for.
2.
The
It was edited by Anthony
J.Cascardi. There are some articles, as you can see in the index on page 6, but
here you can see only the introduction and the historical and social context.
There are lots of interesting authors to search and they give me a first idea to
search deeper into a theme of the novel.
3.
Cervantes and the Burlesque Sonnet
It is an
article found in
Cervantes [Publicaciones periódicas] : Bulletin of the Cervantes Society
of
http://www.cervantesvirtual.com/servlet/SirveObras/13538332103242052754491/p0000009.htm
4.
Cervantes, Lope and
Article
by Daniel Eisenberg, it spokes about the identity of
Alonso Fernández de Avellaneda, author of the
false second part of Don Quixote.
I like the format and I decided to look in different articles searching for
something interesting

5.
Cervantes' Last
Romance: Deflating the Myth of Female Sacrifice

6.
http://www.h-net.org/~cervantes/csa/articf89/lo_re.htm
Finally
I found the article to start my work, as it is explained above, but I was not
sure if I had to start from this page to follow my project.

8.
Essays in Memory of E.C.Riley On the Quartcentenary of D.Quixote
It´s
another book, titled edited by Jeremy Robbins and Edwin Williamson, there are
some articles in English and Spanish, another time they are good but I didn´t
find the perfect topic for my project.
9.

http://www.kirjasto.sci.fi/cervante.htm
Very
good biography and explanation of the works by Cervantes, but it did not speak
so much about Quixote, and of course, nothing about the death of Don Quixote.
12.
The
Death of Don Quixote. What Happens When Irony Meets Lucidity
It is a
very good article, by Timoty Sexton, but from my point of view is very short,
but in the last paragraph, the quotation “…Don Quixote dies in spirit the moment
he renounces chivalry and dies in flesh not long after. In a way, his death is
caused by sudden lucidity and self-awareness of his delusions. This is the
deepest and most heartbreaking irony of the story because although we are always
aware-sometimes two or three times removed-that he is a figment of the
imagination,…” give me ideas to follow searching on the net. Normally the
articles on that website are not so short, but that one is very short.
http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/113888/the_death_of_don_quixote.html?page=2&cat=38
Speaking
about the whole website, they are lots of interesting articles but nothing else
about the death of Don Quixote, and the best is that all of them are for free.
When you enter on the page you can read related articles, on the left side when
it puts “You may also like…”
I
recommend you
The History of
the Novel by Jim Jonson, which speaks
about Quixote as the most noted work of 16th and 17th
Centuries.

13.
Cervantes-related World Wide Web Links
This
website has lots of interesting links, including translations of the two parts
of the book by Bartleby, but there are two problems here for me. I didn’t found
anything interesting about the death of Don Quixote and when it puts
Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra:
Enlaces de interés, it carries you to the Biblioteca de las Culturas
Hispánicas, as other links of this,
http://www.cervantesvirtual.com/bib_autor/Cervantes/enlaces/enlaces.shtml
but then puts
“ATENCIÓN: La página solicitada no existe” and you cannot acces to that page.

I found
my third website, as you can see above.
11-09-2008
Once my
paper was thought I looked for a good and clear translated version of Don
Quixote and its topics to create more links in my pages. I found that ones:
15.
http://www.gradesaver.com/classicnotes/titles/quixote2/section21.html
A very
good summary and analysis of all the chapters of Don Quixote Part 2. There are
also important quotes for my work in that site. There are Essays on Don Quixote
Book II:

Here
there are all the books that you can see of that page:
http://www.gradesaver.com/classicnotes/titles/.
16.
Themes, motifs and symbols.
If you
watch the left side you have Characters review, plot overview but the most
interesting is a summary of all the chapters of Don Quixote Part 1.
http://www.sparknotes.com/lit/donquixote/themes.html
17.
http://www.knowledgerush.com/kr/encyclopedia/Don_Quixote/
It seems
a good website because it speaks about the book, its importance (very
interesting), films, with lots of links to search about topics as novel, the
French Revolution or the 19th Century or to search about topics as
chivalric romance, but I don´t like it because for me it is very similar to
wikipedia
