First, I will repeat here what I in the comment line of the first part already said: By umfässlichen and some anticipatory for this part originally Scheduled posts from readers Sil and Tosco and my replies here this fourth part somewhat different than originally planned.
I have now decided in this context for the topic but not weiterzubetreuen through numerous quotations from there and cross-references there, as I thought it spontaneously as necessary, but hereby set Part I and the subsequent thread and Parts II and III / III ( b) are known.
On the role of Sancho Panza as a special type of positive traumatized people, which I Part III (b) promised to express myself in connection detail.
When I went to in 1988 at a seminar to interpret the history of Don Quixote, I was deeply impressed, almost overwhelmed by how much the reception and interpretation of the work had ever epochal shift back-conditioned: every century had understood completely different.
And this seemed to me very strange process by no means complete.
Among other things, in Part V are discussed, I noticed after some time, which has hitherto quite surprisingly missing: that the figure of Sancho Panza will adequately appreciated (I am now writing from the hollow of his hand, the last 20 years Literature have hereunto not ready).
Keck, like most at that time, I confronted my professor with the thesis that the next phase of interpretation will probably move the faithful squire in the focus of their considerations for previously unrecognized, secret, perhaps even real heroes of history to explain.
The Lord High school teacher was unconvinced or even enthusiastic, however, although I explained to him, the stocky, earthy, robust, uneducated, but never at a loss for a chamfered saying, shrewd, proletarian knitted Sancho, a survivor of the Lord, dear one time his heels taking since the tragic confused Junker playing, the-sufficient ass of modern donkey riding, indestructible symbol of Volksheroismus' par excellence, sicklied of any gelahrten Spohisterei in his life substance, the wine and the Derben devoted, in the best sense suspicious, skeptical, live wisely and -Learn every opportunity to Käserwerb, to take Utilizing material, while quite reluctantly busy, but just made, especially faithful, without, however, first here! to cry when peril and privation are distributed, such a must but in our leveled, unaristocratic age zuallerwenigstens at the left (= "progressive") literary scholars and intellectuals, almost all finally come to honor, when in any case, as even one of those , even a top dog of the anti-authoritarians and Egalitarian, also came to my mind just presented.
And that the blinded-brilliant heroism of Don Quixote's only simultaneously rested on the shoulders of Sancho, without which he would not three paces, as indicated on the contrast to this, in the dialogical conflict, as his friend and antithesis, the first place to action had come, what is the meaning and previous contempt yes, per se already evidence.
Well so far.
Now to the question of "malditos encantadores", the "accursed sorcerer" (literally, "one Inger"), which makes Don Quixote responsible for ensuring that the world of the Knight lost, even a noble as always re-purposed him illusions, confuses the senses , bats, even derision given.
If we now again the case with those are neither alien nor numinous beings meant: Then it must be for people that everything is contrary to what Don Quixote is, and probably much more, what he other in the minds of the to make way threatened.
And first, as in the broadest sense is the Noble that the spirit over matter is, for inspiration, intuition, sense of justice, integrity, protecting the weak, musicality of language, courage, liberality, generosity, gentleness towards others, hardness against himself true higher education, the sciences, poetry.
Applying now the terms of this short list into its opposite, the accursed sorcerer are described in their nature to the point.
All of these one-one program, one will: give people the evasion of their possible realities prescribed as natural and immutable and, einzusingen to make the sole reality.
And to present you as a dreamer, as madmen those of their lock and Drohliedern may not indulge listen differently and speaks, her magic does not respect the positive traumatized, the own world his world and the true true love and true art more than all the trinkets, which offer those for its submission.
By Cervantes reflecting thus the thing that Don Quixote appeared as the madman, Sancho as something simple, but sometimes back but not, he was able to convey this message to pass on into today.
As the positive traumatized Knight Bus is then effected, even within the story to break the cursed spell at least partially, what message given us by how this was to create entirely that follows in the Fifth - and at least for now - the last part .

@ MWGöller
Very nicely written, and it also makes you want to read the fifth part of what I'm going to do the same.
What Duzen and Siezen terms: By Duzen I have not always had good experiences. Am, however, as for you Mr. Goller ready to be able to bring myself to Duzen. So you because of me.
Even from the other side a good birth was liked, you can guess it Magnus, my email address says everything. From my future child, I hope it but a any trauma spared, even if it would continue to develop later in a positive trauma. I think it's just better at most equal to the beginning and start with a word as positive traumatized (r) - a birth trauma is sufficient so in my opinion completely for the whole future life.
At the moment I'm a bit heavily involved, but I will continue to visit your site with great interest. Anyway, from time to time or even more often.
Love, Sil
@ Sil
