Summary “Meditaciones del Quijote” by José Ortega y Gasset is a philosophical treatise written in the early 20th century. The work consists of a series of essays that delve into the themes surrounding Miguel de Cervantes' "Don Quijote", exploring its deeper meanings, characters, and implications on Spanish identity and culture. Ortega y Gasset employs "Don Quijote" as a lens to critique contemporary Spanish society while expressing a yearning for a more profound cultural engagement. The opening of this treatise introduces the author’s introspective approach, stating that these essays will reflect a connection between seemingly mundane topics and the broader cultural and historical circumstances of Spain. Ortega begins by sharing his thoughts on the intellectual love he feels toward his subjects, aiming to elevate ordinary experiences into matters of profound significance. He discusses the nature of understanding, the conflict between love and hate, and the cultural implications of these feelings, all while setting the stage for a deeper exploration of Cervantes’ work and its reflection on the Spanish psyche. The narrative balances philosophical inquiry with a passionate critique of Spain’s historical and contemporary issues, establishing a thoughtful framework for the essays to follow.
