This video is a full summary and analysis of Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes. In this video, I will answer the following questions. Why is Don Quixote such an endearing tale that has traveled all over the world? What is the story? Why did Cervantes write it? What were some of his inspirations? And how did it revolutionize literature? But first let me give you a little background to Cervantes’s own life, then I will summarize the novel and finally discuss some of the themes. Don Quixote was a response to the age of reason. I will also tell you about some of the modern versions of Don Quixote, so I will talk Dostoevsky, Samuel Becket and Salman Rushdie.

He is a towering figure in Russian literature. His masterpieces such as War and Peace and Anna Karenina always make the list of the best novels of all time. Here, I will look into Tolstoy’s life, his major novels, his life philosophies and much more. In the first section, I will compare Tolstoy to the giant of English literature, Charles Dickens. They lived around the same time, more or less so this comparison can give those in the English speaking world the window through which they can understand Tolstoy’s life and writing style. In the second part, I will discuss Tolstoy’s two masterpieces, Anna Karenina and War and Peace in great details so you get to understand Tolstoy’s mastery of storytelling and his unique insights into the Russian society of the time but more importantly his insights about the human condition. In the third part I will discuss some life lessons we can learn from Tolstoy as well as a few storytelling techniques. In the final section, I will compare Tolstoy with another giant of Russian literature, Fyodor Dostoevsky to give you even more depth about the man through their similarities and their differences. By the end of this video, you will know Tolstoy as if he was your wise old grandpa who had some amazing stories to tell and a lot of wisdom to share. You will also learn a lot about Russia and its literature through the lens of a giant who dominates Russian literature.

On the one hand, we desire meaning for our lives, yet no meaning can be found. All we have is endless duties and responsibilities. Kafka diagnoses this modern absurdity and Camus attempts to provide a solution. So in this video, I will compare the two, look at the common themes as well differences and will also try to answer a simple question, whose life is more absurd?
