Summary "Viage al Parnaso" by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra is a poetic work written in the early 17th century. The piece is structured as a journey, where the narrator, characterized as a poet, seeks to travel to the metaphorical realm of Parnassus, the home of the Muses and divine inspiration. The book explores themes of poetry, the nature of artistic ambition, and the relationship between poets and their craft, aiming to elevate the status of genuine poetry amidst a sea of lesser talents. The opening of the work sets the stage for this journey, introducing a character who is a solitary Italian poet longing to escape the tumult of court life. He acquires an old mule suited for his adventure and embarks on a quest to Parnassus, where he hopes to find acclaim and inspiration. As he progresses, he reflects on the burdens and hopes of being a poet, contemplating the obstacles he faces due to fortune and the realities of his aspirations. The tone is both whimsical and contemplative, laying the groundwork for a narrative filled with encounters and reflections on poetic identity and the quest for artistic validation.
