English-language translations of
Eaterjolly/Don Quixote
by Miguel de Cervantes

With part one published in 1605 and part two published in 1615, many treat Don Quixote as among the earliest written novels in a modern European language, so thusly among the most influential and emblematic text in the canon of Spanish literature.
Additionally, the novel serves as the original source for the still common idiom, "chasing after windmills", derived from a scene where Quixote gets caught charging after windmills Quixote mistook for giants.
