<\/a><\/p>\nFirst I have picked out the cover for the Salvador Dali illustrated book because I was curious as to what the famous artist came up with.\u00a0 This was a very interesting cover, in my opinion, because the main character is not even the main focus on the image.\u00a0 He is even cut off at the top of the image.\u00a0 For Dali who illustrates Don as a hero throughout the book, it is surprising the the illustration chosen for the cover does not necessarily show off his triumphs.\u00a0 It does show him in a proud moment being greeted by those watching him as he enters, but he is not doing something necessarily heroic.<\/p>\n
That led me to the analysis of the next cover.\u00a0 This cover, while less colorful and detailed truly depicts Don Quixote as a heroic protagonist of this book and story.\u00a0 This graphic novel takes the story of Quixote and clearly depicts the action hero and heroism as he his climbing up this structure with his sword. \u00a0This cover also truly does feel like a graphic novel cover as opposed to a book cover. \u00a0I am genuinely interested to see what the inside of this book looks like, and Davis chose to illustrate it.<\/p>\n The final cover that I found, and was very intrigued by, was this cover set in modern times.\u00a0 I honestly found this one to be a bit weird, but it is a New York Times bestseller.\u00a0 I think the feeling that I got from this cover was more of a Dan Brown Da Vinci Code<\/em> type of cover, as opposed to a historically famous book like Don Quixote.\u00a0 It has all of the main parts: the hero himself, a sword and a ton of books.\u00a0 However, I am unsure if Cervantes and Don Quixote were using laptops when the book was written. \u00a0I guess the editor or publisher felt it was time to add a modern touch to this old classic. \u00a0It was definitely the most interesting cover I found, but I am not sure if I truly get it.\u00a0 Which cover do you think is the most fitting?<\/p>\n I have also added a few more covers at the bottom so you can truly see how different they have been over the years.<\/p>\n As we learned in class today, Don Quixote is the second most popular book sold in the history of the world.\u00a0 As we were looking at the Dali pieces in the Wellin, which I am still shocked and happy that they are here at Hamilton, Professor Serrano asked us about where the image would fit … <\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
