14 INFANT POPULAR LITERATURE La Literatura Infantil Popular Infant Popular Literature La Literatura Infantil Popular INFANT POPULAR LITERATURE La Literatura Infantil Popular Infant popular literature, together with oral literature, widely influences the writings of a period, of a specific moment, giving different types of interpretation in the classroom depending on the focus we put on it or we present it. In this sense, any kind of infant tale can be shown in different ways, depending on the purpose we want to transmit within our pupils. La literatura infantil popular, junto con la literatura oral, influye enormemente las escrituras de un periodo, de un momento específico, dando diferentes tipos de interpretación en el aula, dependiendo del enfoque que le pongamos al presentarlas. En este sentido, cualquier tipo de cuento infantil puede ser mostrado de diferentes maneras, dependiendo en el enfoque que queramos transmitir a nuestros alumnos.

15 INFANT POPULAR LITERATURE La Literatura Infantil Popular We do really believe that a tale deviates a lot from its original setting thanks to the interpretations children give, because infant literature is an art, and children are artists with the most powerful pen of all: their imagination. Nosotros realmente creemos que un cuento se desvía muchísimo de su localizción original gracias a la interpretación que dan los niños, porque la literatura infantil es un arte y los niños son artistas con el bolígrafo más poderoso de todos: su imaginación.

16 INFANT POPULAR LITERATURE La Literatura Infantil Popular That s why we encourage you to read the tale with the children in the day-life language session, asking them lots of questions about the characters: if they are ugly or handsome; if they were crazy or just acted like children; what would they do if they were them; how should a knight be; if a wind-mill for them could ever be a giant, or a dragon Eso es por lo que nosotros os animamos a leer el cuento con los niños in las sesiones diarias de lengua, preguntándoles un montón de cuestiones sobre los personajes: si son feos o guapos, si estaban locos o si simplemente actuaban como niños; qué harían si fuesen ellos, cómo debería ser un caballero, si un molino podría alguna vez llegar a ser un gigante, o un dragón Don Quixote offers hundreds of possibilities to be worked in the classroom, as things are usually the other way round: all characters are humble people, like humble is life as when we look at it through the so-called magic glass that deviates things from the real. Don Quijote ofrece cientos de posibilidades para trabajar en el aula, puesto que las cosas son habitualmente lo contrario de lo que parecen: todos los personajes son gentes humildes, como humilde es la vida cuando la vemos a través del famoso cristal mágico que transforma las cosas desde la realidad.

17 DON QUIXOTE. BRIEF SUMMARY Don Quijote. Resumen breve Don Quixote is a middle-aged gentleman from the region of La Mancha in central Spain. Obsessed with the chivalrous ideals touted in books he has read, he decides to take up his lance and sword to defend the helpless and destroy the wicked. After a first failed adventure, he sets out on a second one with a somewhat befuddled laborer named Sancho Panza, whom he has persuaded to accompany him as his faithful squire. In return for Sancho's services, Don Quixote promises to make Sancho the wealthy governor of an isle. On his horse, Rocinante, a barn nag well past his prime, Don Quixote rides the roads of Spain in search of glory and grand adventure. He gives up food, shelter, and comfort, all in the name of a peasant woman, Dulcinea del Toboso, whom he envisions as a princess.

18 DON QUIXOTE. BRIEF SUMMARY Don Quijote. Resumen breve Don Quixote Brief Summary Don Quijote. Resumen Breve On his second expedition, Don Quixote becomes more of a bandit than a savior, stealing from and hurting baffled and justifiably angry citizens while acting out against what he perceives as threats to his knighthood or to the world. Don Quixote abandons a boy, leaving him in the hands of an evil farmer simply because the farmer swears an oath that he will not harm the boy. He steals a barber's basin that he believes to be the mythic Mambrino's helmet, and he becomes convinced of the healing powers of the Balsam of Fierbras, an elixir that makes him so ill that, by comparison, he later feels healed. Sancho stands by Don Quixote, often bearing the brunt of the punishments that arise from Don Quixote's behavior.

19 DON QUIXOTE. BRIEF SUMMARY Don Quijote. Resumen breve The story of Don Quixote's deeds includes the stories of those he meets on his journey. Don Quixote witnesses the funeral of a student who dies as a result of his love for a disdainful lady turned shepherdess. He frees a wicked and devious galley slave, Gines de Pasamonte, and unwittingly reunites two bereaved couples, Cardenio and Lucinda, and Ferdinand and Dorothea. Torn apart by Ferdinand's treachery, the four lovers finally come together at an inn where Don Quixote sleeps, dreaming that he is battling a giant. Along the way, the simple Sancho plays the straight man to Don Quixote, trying his best to correct his master's outlandish fantasies. Two of Don Quixote's friends, the priest and the barber, come to drag him home. Believing that he is under the force of an enchantment, he accompanies them, thus ending his second expedition and the First Part of the novel.

20 DON QUIXOTE. BRIEF SUMMARY Don Quijote. Resumen breve The Second Part of the novel begins with a passionate invective against a phony sequel of Don Quixote that was published in the interim between Cervantes's two parts. Everywhere Don Quixote goes, his reputation gleaned by others from both the real and the false versions of the story precedes him. As the two embark on their journey, Sancho lies to Don Quixote, telling him that an evil enchanter has transformed Dulcinea into a peasant girl. Undoing this enchantment, in which even Sancho comes to believe, becomes Don Quixote's chief goal.

21 DON QUIXOTE. BRIEF SUMMARY Don Quijote. Resumen breve Don Quixote meets a Duke and Duchess who conspire to play tricks on him. They make a servant dress up as Merlin, for example, and tell Don Quixote that Dulcinea's enchantment which they know to be a hoax can be undone only if Sancho whips himself 3,300 times on his naked backside. Under the watch of the Duke and Duchess, Don Quixote and Sancho undertake several adventures. They set out on a flying wooden horse, hoping to slay a giant who has turned a princess and her lover into metal figurines and bearded the princess's female servants.

22 DON QUIXOTE. BRIEF SUMMARY Don Quijote. Resumen breve A young maid at the Duchess's home falls in love with Don Quixote, but he remains a staunch worshipper of Dulcinea. Their never-consummated affair amuses the court to no end. Finally, Don Quixote sets out again on his journey, but his demise comes quickly. Shortly after his arrival in Barcelona, the Knight of the White Moon actually an old friend in disguise vanquishes him. During his stay with the Duke, Sancho becomes governor of a fictitious isle. He rules for ten days until he is wounded in an onslaught the Duke and Duchess sponsor for their entertainment. Sancho reasons that it is better to be a happy laborer than a miserable governor.

23 DON QUIXOTE. BRIEF SUMMARY Don Quijote. Resumen breve Cervantes relates the story of Don Quixote as a history, which he claims he has translated from a manuscript written by a Moor named Cide Hamete Benengeli. Cervantes becomes a party to his own fiction, even allowing Sancho and Don Quixote to modify their own histories and comment negatively upon the false history published in their names. In the end, the beaten and battered Don Quixote forswears all the chivalric truths he followed so fervently and dies from a fever. With his death, knights-errant become extinct. Benengeli returns at the end of the novel to tell us that illustrating the demise of chivalry was his main purpose in writing the history of Don Quixote.

24 Castilla la Mancha Castilla La Mancha is a Spanish region made up of 6 different provinces, amongst which we can find an unknown place where the spatial setting of Don Quixote takes place. It makes geographical borderline with the so-called Community of Madrid, from whose Spanish Capital city, Madrid, is not very distant. Castilla La Mancha es una región española formada por 6 provincias diferentes, de entre las cuales podemos encontrar el lugar desconocido donde tiene lugar el la localización geográfica donde el Quijote toma lugar. Hace frontera geográfica con la denominada Comunidad de Madrid, no muy distante de la capital.

25 Castilla la Mancha Castilla la Mancha Castilla la Mancha is a very varied area, where the most outstanding feature, that gives its name, is the reddish colour of its lands. In that sense, la Mancha means the Stain. This region acquired a great importance with the first edition of Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes Saaverdra, in 1605 (XVII century). Castilla la Mancha es un área muy variada, donde el aspecto más destacable y que le da nombre es el color rojizo de sus tierras. En este sentido, la Mancha se traduce, literalmente en inglés, por the Stain. Esta región adquirió una gran importancia con la primera edición del Quijote, por Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, en 1605 (siglo XVII).
