Reviews

As the four hundredth anniversary of Don Quixote was celebrated around the world, the book was proclaimed to be not only one of the most transcendental works of the Western tradition-considered second only to the Bible-but also a global phenomenon, perfectly in keeping with our times. Millennial Cervantes is important as part of that global celebration but also as the due contribution of North American Hispanist scholarship. -Aurora Hermida-Ruiz, coeditor of Garcilaso Studies: A New Trajectory -- Aurora Hermida-Ruiz
