La gracia de Dios en Cervantes

Abstract

The topic of divine grace is amply discussed by Cervantes. It makes us more than God, introduces us into the gospels. As graced persons, we are led to Christ, our master, who is meek. Don Quijote preaches this to all who know not to forgive their enemies and want to avenge them. Books, events, encounters, dialogues, good works, all do sow their seeds. Grace is the light of mankind and God’s infinite mercy for it. Perhaps we are today in a better condition than ever to value this Christianity. God is not distant, but present and merciful; is loving Providence, letting each one with one’s own responsibility. In order to orient oneself in life, one does not rely on reason alone. There are also the basic religious beliefs.
