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"".
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.
