Cervantes escribió "El Quijote" con la intención de parodiar los libros de caballerías, que consideraba simples sartas de disparates desprovistas de todo interés. Para conseguir su propósito, ideó la historia de un hidalgo aldeano que enloquece de tanto leer las inverosímiles hazañas de héroes como Amadís y Palmerín, y que, al igual que los caballeros andantes, se echa a los caminos con el noble afán de ayudar a los necesitados.

A este loco entrañable que recorre la dura tierra de Castilla de principios del siglo XVII en busca de hazañas lo acompaña Sancha Panza, un rústico aldeano que acepta a regañadientes ser su escudero.
