Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra (Alcalá de Henares, 1547 — Madrid, 1616) is the most iconic writer of Spanish literature and a cornerstone of world literature. A novelist, poet, playwright and soldier, he led an adventurous life before writing 'Don Quixote of La Mancha', regarded as the first modern novel and one of the most translated works in history.
