Description

Así nos presenta Amenodoro Urdaneta Cervantes y la crítica: Después de muchos años consagrados al estudio del Quijote y al examen de la crítica en él ensayada, he adquirido la convicción de poder disipar las sombras extrañas que velan todavía la faz de esa inmortal novela, y que la dañan, a semejanza de los mal confeccionados afeites que el artificio estampa en el rostro de la beldad. Ese libro admirable que, poniendo de relieve y caricaturando graciosamente la parte flaca y ridícula de la sociedad, es como el espejo constante de la naturaleza, el cual a nadie exime de pararse a contemplar y de reír al ver reflejado en su tersura algún rasgo de la fisonomía social, y aun de la suya propia; ese libro que, a su originalísima concepción y gran cordura, une el atractivo de las bellas formas y una alta influencia moral y literaria; ese libro, por último, orgullo de las letras y familiar de las naciones, ha tenido también su desventura (¡que ella es inherente a la condición de las cosas humanas!); y esta desventura consiste en ver a errados o ilusos escritores contestarle o desfigurar muchas partes de su incontestable mérito, como se verá en la obra que intento publicar, mediante la protección y benevolencia de la culta sociedad venezolana.
