The Story

The cultures of the Spanish baroque and our own postmodern era are closer than they might appear. ""Tilting Cervantes"" examines a number of contemporary cultural texts - from ""Fight Club"" and ""Toy Story"" to ""The Matrix"" and ""The Moor's Last Sigh"" - by reflecting them against a cluster of early modern Spanish literary works, principally Miguel de Cervantes' ""Don Quixote"". Through this series of cross-cultural, cross-epochal comparisons this book explores the ways in which each of these disparate texts illuminates its counterpart through a parallel critical reflection.
