Description

LITERARY CONTINUATION IS A little considered and even less understood element of Don Quijote. This is all the more unfortunate because the sequel plays a central role in the creation of Don Quijote and Don Quijote in the creation of the sequel. (1) The same holds for Don Quijote's elected precursors and the genres they found, namely the chivalric, pastoral, Celestinesque and picaresque novels. The present article proposes a new lens for reading the Don Quijote and its antecedents: a focus on the form and function of the sequel and the means and motivation of the sequelist. Indirectly, it suggests a way of tracing the history of the Early Modern Spanish novel through the prism of literary continuation. (2) Such continuation imbues every page of Part I of Don Quijote. It is present in the front matter, where Cervantes meditates on the challenges of continuing his own stalled career two decades after La Galatea's failure to yield a second part; in the early discussion of Don Quijote's favorite writer, the era's great sequelist Feliciano de Silva; in the Scrutiny of Books episode, where every work considered either is a sequel or generates sequels; and in the very structure of the work, which alludes to various continuation traditions through its division into partes. (3) Finally, a quest for continuation's necessary complement, closure, is a major topic of the final parte of the novel.
