In Spanish you can consider Cervantes and his work "Don Quijote" , as the top of the literature, more or less the Shakespeare in Spanish, not same style, Cervantes was novelist, and i can tell you that it was a PITA to read in our literature class in school because the language had little to do with modern Spanish and it was at the same time so rich in vocabulary that you had to read it with a dictionary next to you, and ended reading one of the "translations" to modern Spanish. As a curiosity Cervantes and Shakespeare died on the same date but different days , Gregorian and Julian calendars were used in Spain and England at that time.
