Excerpt from La Ilustre Fregona, Y, El Licenciado Vidriera Cervantes' other claim is just: 'if these stories could suggest evil, I would rather cut off the hand which wrote them than offer them in public.' The Puritan reader may, here and there, be startled as he recalls this promise. But in the age of Shakespeare decency did not mean silence it meant taking the right view of things. It never occurs to, Cervantes to shrink from scenes of violence, brutality, pas sion and roguery. Yet, as he says, the dish which he offers is clean and wholesome. N 0 one can close his book without a sense of gratitude and of healthy refreshment. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
