Is it fair for Shakespeare to overshadow Cervantes?
it is not fair that Shakespeare eclipse Cervantes, one of whom were two important
characters who left their mark on literary works, etc. They were different writers who
used different forms, but both participated in raising the level of the language and
the culture to which they belonged alike, were very detailed in very insignificant
polemics to form criticisms of the counterparts
Shakespiare and Cervantes have been translated into more than 100 languages, of
which they were considered as the fundamental pillar of the languages they spoke
such as Spanish and English, these great characters made great similarities in two
literary works that were made, such as poetry, satire in comedy.
Their stories show us that all people could achieve anything, if they had the
commitment like Shakespeare and Cervantes. It shows me that the most important
thing is your mind and your dreams, and if you wanted one thing, you would need
to work a lot, with or without help. The two did not go to college, but they are still
the two most successful in the world of literature.

INTRODUCTION
It is curious that English and Spanish literature came together to celebrate the life
and work of two great writers completely different and at the same time similar in
their ways of writing and being, both described the events in a wonderful way for that
time in which they wrote They were ahead of their time, their characters are already
part of history, they are the most universal in literature, their pieces, fundamental
masterpieces for those of us who love reading and live day by day in this literary field
that fills us and makes us live emotions Intense full of magic and imagination thanks
to great writers, poets and artists who would not have existed without a doubt had it
not been for Shakespeare and Cervantes two men who marked a before and after
in the universal world of letters that crossed the barriers of language , from the
language in his own way, one became the most important writer of the Spanish
language and the other the most important of the language. In English although
there are theories that point out the opposite (opinions that are respected by this
server) personally I consider these two the greatest writers of their time, masters of
letters who taught all of us who love the trade what it is to truly love and live the
letters, the literature in every sense of the word and in all its expressions

3. PARAGRAPH
the story has a lot of satire on the
thoughts and actions of the main
character, Don Quixote. He thinks
he is a gentleman with dignity but in
reality he is a crazy man who lives in
an imaginary world.
CONCLUSIONS
Shakespeare used irony to
demonstrate satire: in his play,
Hamlet, it is ironic that the king's
murderer is his brother, who
takes the role after death. Also,
the audience knows who the
murderer is, while Hamlet is
clueless (dramatic irony).
The themes also
revealed the problems
of the time, which
mainly dealt with the
paradoxes between
the nobility and the
monarchy.
