Abstract

The notes used by Javier Marías to prepare his classes about Quijote are the commencement of this article that compares his reading with that of two other writers: Vladimir Nabokov and Thomas Mann. These Cervantine publications by these three authors provide very valuable materials for the literary criticism because they demonstrate that the interest for a certain culture modifies significantly the point of view from which his different literary facts are analyzed. On the contrary, a work belonging to another literary horizon can end in a disdainful position or bring back a superlative appreciation.
