Hurryy how was don quixote different from the literature before it? how did it signal a change in the history of literature? your answer should contain at least one hundred words.

It was realistic in contrast to fantastic and marvelous chivalric romances. The narrative romances before Don Quixote gave no importance to character's inner thoughts, while Don Quixote also presents insights into character's psychology.

Explanation:

The most significant element differentiating Don Quixote from literature before it is its form, content and treatment of subject. Literature before Don Quixote was mostly chivalric romance full of marvels and fantasies. Even if some of the literature before Don Quixote was realistic, it was in verse (Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales). In contrast Don Quixote was the first major realistic literature written in prose (later to be called novel).

The chivalric romance before Don Quixote featured disconnected stories of the same characters with little or no insight into character’s inner thoughts or psychology, while Don Quixote started the tradition of focusing more on character’s complex inner thoughts narrated in series on connected episodes.

Most of the literature before Don Quixote had main characters that were ideals without any flaws, but Don Quixote (as a protagonist) is a common man with many deficiencies.

So, Don Quixote laid a firm foundation on which future’s most important literary genre of novel was to be built.

faulty parallelism is a construction in which two or more parts of a sentence are equivalent in meaning but not grammatically similar in form.

the correct version of this faulty parallelism in the sentence is:

the hikers knew that the hike was six miles, that it usually required the entire day, and it would not be wise to start after 10: 00 a.m.

the problem is the last sentence, the first two have a basic subject+verb+object structure.

so, to give a proper balance to the structure, or better said, to give a parallel structure, we must write a basic s+v+o structure in all three sentences:

the hikers knew that the hike was six miles, that it usually required the entire day, and it would not be wise to start after 10: 00 a.m.

d. the two authors are in awe of nature; their experiences, reveal that time in nature can change people.
