Abstract
The following paper will take an existential philosophical idea and apply it to a renaissance novel featuring a medieval character. The existential idea of authenticity as explained by Martin Heidegger will be outlined and then used to evaluate the main character of Miguel de Cervantes’ novel Don Quixote, the knight-errant Don Quixote de la Mancha.
