The Quixote is one of the most important and popular works of art, which is still praised and held in high regard as an essential book in the history of universal literature all over the world. It has been considered, to some extent, as a historical approach to the history of Spain at that time, a national landmark. The novel has also been regarded as a source of knowledge about all kinds of topics, and the characters in the novel are treated as archetypes of particular psychological, ideological, or moral principles. Our main purpose in this article is to offer a scope of the novel free from moral preconceptions and stereotypes, in other words, to reach an overview of the novel in terms of its possibilities in education.
