Answer: Let's imagine that in Toledo a paper with an Arabic text is discovered and that paleographers declare it as
Handwriting of that Cide Hamete Benengeli from whom Cervantes derived Don Quixote. In the text we read
That the hero (who, as is fame, walked the roads of Spain, armed with a sword and spear, and challenged
For any reason to anyone) discovers, after one of his many fights, that he has killed
A man. At this point the fragment ceases; the problem is to guess, or guess, how don reacts.
Don Quixote.
As far as I know, there are three possible answers. The first one is negative; nothing special happens.
Because in the hallucinatory world of Don Quixote, death is no less common than magic and having killed
A man does not have to disturb anyone who beats, or thinks he is beating, with slodgepodge and charming. The
Second, it's pathetic. Don Quixote never managed to forget that it was a projection of Alonso Quijano, a reader of
Fabulous stories; seeing death, understanding that a dream has led him to Cain's guilt, wakes him up from
His spoiled madness, perhaps forever. The third is perhaps the most plausible. That man is dead, don
Don Quixote cannot admit that the tremendous act is the work of a delirium; the reality of the effect makes him presuppose
A real couple of the cause and Don Quixote will never get out of his madness.
There is another conjecture, which is foreign to the Spanish orb and still to the orb of the West and requires a more scope
Older, more complex and more fatigued. Don Quixote - who is no longer Don Quixote but a king of the cycles of the
Indostán- intuit before the corpse of the enemy that killing and engendering are divine or magical acts that
They notoriously transcend the human condition.
He knows that the dead is illusory as are the bloody sword that weighs on his hand and himself and all his
Past life and the vast gods and the universe.
Jorge Luis Borges
