Don Quixote follows the adventures of a nameless hidalgo (at the end of Part II given the name Alonso Quixano) who reads so many chivalric romances that he loses his sanity and decides to set out to revive chivalry, undo wrongs, and bring justice to the world, under the name Don Quixote.
Quixote recruits a simple farmer, Sancho Panza, as his squire. Sancho uses his down-to-earth wit in dealing with Don Quixote and his antiquated ideas about knighthood.
The story of Don Quixote is often described as the first modern novel and the book remains a classic to this day.
