VILARROIG MARTIN, Jaime e ARAYA CERDA, Carlos. The Quixote Philosophers. Valenciana [online]. 2021, vol.14, n.28, pp.131-172. Epub 18-Out-2021. ISSN 2007-2538. https://doi.org/10.15174/rv.v13i28.514.
This paper tries to establish the philosophical roots of Don Quixote, using three different strategies. Firstly, looking for the names of relevant philosophers in Cervantes’ work (Socrates, Plato, Aristotle), with a rather null result. Secondly, bringing to light the abundant references to scholastic philosophy that appear in Cervantes’ work, related to epistemology, logic, metaphysics, rational theology, anthropology, ethics, politics and aesthetics. Thirdly, presenting the philosophical reference texts that Cervantes would surely possess in his personal library, based on Eisenberg’s work and dividing the influences on the philosophy of love, moral and political philosophy, popular philosophy or paremiology and miscellaneous.
