Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from El Buscapie
The History of Literature records numberless instances in which genius, regarded with indif ference in its own time, has received only from after generations the tribute of just appreciation. Of this sort of contemporary neglect, and posthumous honour, Cervantes is a remarkable example; for even the popularity of Don Quixote which, on its first appearance, met with unpa ralleled success, did not materially better the circumstances or elevate the position of its author.
