    I was recently sent a message on instagram describing a dream in which I made a diorama based on Don Quixote. In the dream, the windmill was actually a ferocious monster! I loved the idea and decided to make the dream a reality! This diorama is chock full of character. I hope you enjoy!

    This is wonderful, and captures the spirit of Miguel de Cervantes' "Don Quixote" perfectly! THIS is exactly how I imagined the titular character saw the windmill in his mind. Your diorama does justice to what many consider to be the first modern novel. Great job, Boylei!

    • @CristinaAlmarazLopez
      @CristinaAlmarazLopez 6 месяцев назад +10

      ​@ibandorronsoro8860 It is actually pronounced with a J (I'm Spanish), it's just that that back when the book was written the J phonem was written with the letter X. In modern Spanish you will often see it spelt as Don Quijote but if you get an original copy of the text you will see this is the case for every word that nowadays would be spelt with a J (which makes reading the book even more diffucult on top of the old Spanish being kinda different to begin with, I had to read the whole thing like this in high school)
