Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra (1547–1616) stands as one of the most celebrated figures in literature, widely revered as the greatest Spanish writer of all time. He is best known for penning 'Don Quixote', considered the first modern novel, which profoundly influenced the development of Western literature and established his legacy as a pioneer in the literary field. Born in Alcalá de Henares, Spain, Cervantes led a tumultuous life that included military service, enslavement by pirates, and various financial troubles. Despite these setbacks, he produced a significant body of work. Beyond 'Don Quixote', Cervantes wrote several other notable pieces, with 'The Two Damsels' ('Las dos doncellas') being one among them. This work, along with others such as 'The Ingenious Gentleman Sir Quixote of La Mancha' and the 'Exemplary Novels' ('Novelas ejemplares'), unveil his brilliance in utilizing metafiction and realism – styles that were innovative at his time. Cervantes's literary style often showcased his wit, narrative skills, and a deep understanding of human nature, setting the foundations for the modern tale and the psychological novel. His works reflect a satirical and occasionally pessimistic view of the post-Renaissance world, with a nuanced exploration of the themes of idealism vs. realism, tradition vs. innovation, and individualism vs. society. His contribution to literature is reflected in the phrase 'the Cervantine', which denotes characteristics related to his works, marking him as a master of prose whose influence endures to this day.
