In "Don Quixote”‚ I discovered that Don Quixote is highly portrayed as a quite ignorant person throughout this section. In my opinion‚ I discovered and saw examples on how and why Don Quixote had a great deal of ignorant situations.

Byron - Question 4 In Don Juan‚ Byron mocks many of his Romantic contemporaries for their style. According to Byron‚ poets such as Wordsworth and Southey were overly showy. Thus‚ Don Juan was a way to poke fun at the romantic tropes these self-interested poets utilized. For instance‚ Byron uses “romantic” language to describe Donna Julia‚ saying‚ “Of many charms in her as natural/As sweetness to the flower or salt to the ocean‚ Her zone to Venus‚ or his bow to Cupid” (437-439). But then he gives

“America is the land of opportunity‚ just for some more then others.” Matt o’Brien was right on the money saying that in his article “Poor kids who do everything right don’t do better than rich kids who do everything wrong.” The amount of money you are born into changes how you view others your whole life and above all yourself.

What you are stands over you the while‚ and thunders so that I cannot hear what you say… (Emerson‚ 1909).” I head this quote the first day of school my junior year of high school. My English teacher‚ Miss Wilson‚ shared Emerson’s quote to emphasize that what you do has a larger impact on the world than what you say. I was taught this lesson only a few short months later while standing in the rain‚ on a muddy football field. I was the starting defensive

the title suggests‚ a defeated/conquered Don Quixote roaming the lands of La Mancha “now useless and battered” (Felipe 3). The image offered by Felipe in "Vencidos" draws the comparison between himself and many other readers like him that have been beaten and battered by misadventure and injustice. I agree with you‚ Kelsey that as you read Don Quixote you see the traits of him as a character who has a different‚ albeit selectively skewed‚ view of the world. Don Quixote is a character made to represent

Don Quijote was a tall‚ skinny "wanna-be" who found himself morally obligated to involve himself in other people’s business for the sole purpose of acting as a proper knight errant would. Although he believes that his "battles" help solve situations (though the results is usually the opposite)‚ what it comes down to is that he wants to be famous‚ to be in love with his woman‚ to be accomplished‚ recognized‚ and adored. Therefore‚ Don Quijote’s motives are self-serving‚ and not "by-the-book" as
