Summary/Abstract: This paper concerns some paradoxes of the creative process outlined in the novel Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes and Terry Giliam’s movie The Man Who Killed Don Quixote: driven by constructive and destructive impetuses, the author’s personality strengthens and destroys itself in a duel between the imagination and the flattings made by reality. Terry Giliam’s surrealistic film grotesque turns Cervantes’ plot into a mythical text of self-construction as an everlasting tilt at windmills of time and obsessive extant models; a tilt at windmills of Holy Inquisition of censorship and self-censorship.
