| Summary | "Historia de Gil Blas de Santillana: Novela (Vol 1 de 3)" by Alain René Le Sage is a classic picaresque novel written in the early 18th century. The narrative follows the life of the titular character, Gil Blas, who embarks on a series of adventures, exploring themes of deception, social commentary, and the human condition. As he navigates through various societal classes, Gil Blas becomes a reflection of the people and experiences he encounters. The opening portion of the novel introduces the reader to Gil Blas and the circumstances of his upbringing. It begins with a clarification from the author stating that any resemblance of characters to real people is purely coincidental, emphasizing the work's philosophical and moral intentions rather than solely entertaining adventures. The text describes his early education under his uncle, who aspires for Gil Blas to attend the University of Salamanca, setting the stage for his journey. It depicts Gil Blas's departure from his hometown, showcasing his naivety and excitement about the world beyond his sheltered life, foreshadowing the trials and tribulations that will shape his future.
