  Plaza de EspaƱa (Madrid) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the center of the plaza is a monument to Spanish novelist, poet and playwright Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra.
The tower portion of the monument includes a stone sculpture of Cervantes, which overlooks bronze sculptures of Don Quixote and Sancho Panza.
Next to the tower are stone sculptures of two representations of Don Quizoite's "true love", one as the simple peasant woman Aldonza Lorenzo and one as the beautiful, imaginary Dulcinea del Toboso.

 Dulcinea and Her Critics, by Javier S. Herrero
This purification is artistically expressed by Cervantes through the progressive disappearance of Aldonza Lorenzo, which is completed in Part II, where Don Quijote asserts that he does not know Dulcinea, has never seen her, and that he loves her only through her fame of beauty and honesty.
Aldonza, “a coarse and uncouth peasant girl,” as the all-too-real basis of Don Quijote's love, corresponds to the satiric mode.
Dulcinea, in fact, corresponds to the beauty of the soul of Aldonza Lorenzo, Aldonza is a hidalga del Toboso; behind her modesty, Don Quijote sees the greatness of her spirit, hidden to the eyes of her coarse neighbors.

Hollywood has just enriched this vain museum of horrors: by means of an artistic malignity called dubbing, it proposes monsters that combine the illustrious features of Greta Garbo with the voice of Aldonza Lorenzo.
Aldonza Lorenzo is the Spanish peasant girl used by Don Quixote to imagine his ideal lady Dulcinea.

Sancho Panza says she was “a stout-built sturdy wench, who could pitch the bar as well as any young fellow in the parish.” The knight had been in love with her when he was simply a gentleman of the name of Quix’ada.
She was then called Aldonza Lorenzo (daughter of Lorenzo Corchuelo and Aldonza Nogales); but when the gentleman became a don, he changed the style of address of the village damsel into one more befitting his new rank.
In English the accent of Dulcinea is often on the second syllable, but in Spanish it is on the third.

 Fathom :: The Source for Online Learning
In chapter 25, Don Quixote explains to Sancho how he has created Dulcinea out of Aldonza: "In my imagination I draw her as I would have her be, both as to her beauty and her rank; unequaled by Helen, unrivaled by Lucretia or any other famous woman of antiquity, Greek, Barbarian, or Roman" (1.25.210-11).
The conflictive portrayals given by the knight and his squire of Aldonza Lorenzo add to the many tensions already found in the mnemonic image that Don Quixote is attempting to paint in his memory.
Thus, the knight's feelings for Aldonza form the last element in the construction of Dulcinea.

Kevin Bacon *is* Don Quixote de la Mancha in this cautionary tale of an unbalanced Spanish scientist who reads one too tales of chivalry while an experiment in invisibility goes horribly wrong.
He goes on the rampage, tilting at windmills, stalking his fellow scientists (including Aldonza Lorenzo [Elizabeth Shue], developer of the invisibility serum, whom he refers to constantly as ''Dulcinea'') and hiding in the locker-room shower in girls' gym.
In a truly honest tear-jerking moment in the story, the irony of the mad Don's line "I have dreamed thee too long, never seen thee or touched thee but know thee with all of my heart..." is echoed in Aldonza's plaintive response "Once...Just once...would you look upon me as I really am?".

 Summary of Don Quixote De La Mancha
And so' Alonso Quejana determined henceforth to be known as Don Quixote de la Mancha, after his native village.

Decked out in his clattering armor and dreaming of fame, the Don wasted no time in mounting Rocinante and setting out in search of adventure.

 "Cruel and Crude": Nabokov Reading Cervantes, by Catherine Kunce
Dulcinea does not exist, except, of course, as a fictionalization of Aldonza Lorenzo, recycled into Dulcinea del Toboso because, to Don Quixote's mind, “the name was musical, uncommon, and significant” (29).
His love for her, like Don Quixote's love for Aldonza, remains unconsummated, and Humbert becomes obsessed with young girls who are the same age as Annabel when Humbert was infatuated with her.
Lolita actually exists, but Humbert's disregard of her personhood is as conspicuous as Don Quixote's disregard for the “actual” Aldonza.
