Resumen

This essay deals with the metamorphosis operated by Walter Scott on the quixotic figure, which turns him into a recurring type in nineteenth-century European narrative, since it is associated with one of its most distinctive kinds, the bildungsroman. This metamorphosis takes place in Waverley, or ‘tis Sixty Years Since (1814), so, in the first place, the quixotic features of the new type of hero formulated by Scott in this novel are examined: his romantic imagination rooted in literature and his unsuitability for a heroic role of chivalric origins. Then, the essay explains how this quixotism is immersed in a narrative of apprenticeship and disillusionment, and, finally, how the quixotic hero which emerges in Waverley will give rise to a kind of narrative which is described as the novel of the failed hero. The nineteenth-century quixotic hero is the result of the transformations that Scott and other authors implement not only on the original Spanish model but also on its later foreign metamorphoses.
