Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra (Alcalá de Henares, 1547 — Madrid, 1616) es el escritor más emblemático de la literatura española y una figura capital de la literatura universal. Novelista, poeta, dramaturgo y soldado, vivió una existencia plagada de aventuras antes de firmar 'Don Quijote de la Mancha', considerada la primera novela moderna y una de las obras más traducidas de la historia.
