Cuvînt înainte

-Haide, seniore, curaj, curaj, că totul s-a sfîrşit, aventura a şi fost dusă la capăt fără a fi nimeni în pagubă, aşa cum arată negru pe alb slovele de pe acel stâlp.*

*Miguel de Cervantes, Don Quijote de la Mancha, vol. II, cap. XLI, p. 335, trad. de Ion Frunzetti şi Edgar Papu, ed. LEDA, Bucureşti, 2005

April 23 (2 + 3): St. George, (†) Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra and (†) William Shakespeare (held by Orson Welles great admirer of don Quijote). All of them with mysterious faces and mythical identity. Orson Welles' picture was taken by Cecil Beaton on April 1942 (!). St. George's face is a rare illustration from the 13th century.
