Don Quixote (Day Five / Chapters 36 - 45)

In these chapters there is a story from the captive about Clara and Don Louis. Cara and Don Louis show how many people during that time had the attributes that Don Quixote had. This is the idea of women falling in love with them, women that are unknown to them. These women drive them to insanity and are seen as objects of beauty. The men fight over these gorgeous women as well. Some women do not want to be desired by men so they dress as men so they would gain no attention. These women generally become involved in a dangerous situations and are stranded waiting to be saved by a man. Zoraida is an exception to the above statements.
