Great movie, very interesting...

Thanks to that movie we're infected by the virus that take us to investigate more about the fascinating life of one of the best writers, whose life is (absolutely) unknown. Thanks to that investigation it seems that he wrote the Quixot novel not in Spanish language but in catalan. The original has "disappeared" as most originals of the XVI novels in Hispanic Monarchy. Inquisition seems to be behind any trace of catalan language in Spain. Thanks to that most novels were forced to be translated to the Spanish language, then the originals were deleted and all of these works appear as Spanish works instead of being catalan. We should stress that catalan language is amongst the 3 most important in Europe from XIII-XVI...and perhaps up to XVIII when the catalan-English-austrian-ducth defeat against the Spanish-french coalition led us to the lack of freedom
