註釋In a period when literal and metaphorical battles were fought over the power of images, divergent conceptions of aesthetics define the artistic and theological principles of the Reformation and Counter-Reformation. This religious and aesthetic discord channeled the rich and complex relationship between Northern and Southern Europe. While Spain anxiously attempted to equal Italian cultural splendor, it was a country dominated by the ruling tastes of its northern dynasty, the Habsburgs. Both cultural frameworks, Italian and Flemish, constantly interacted and helped define the society Cervantes lived in, and therefore both are essential in understanding the author's aesthetic sensibility.
