Las Novelas ejemplares son una serie de novelas cortas que Miguel de Cervantes escribió entre 1590 y 1612, y que después acabaría publicando en 1613 en una colección editada en Madrid por Juan de la Cuesta, dada la gran acogida que obtuvo con la primera parte del Quijote. En un principio recibieron el nombre de Novelas ejemplares de honestisimo entretenimiento. Se trata de doce novelas cortas que siguen el modelo establecido en Italia. Su denominacion de ejemplares obedece a que son el primer ejemplo en castellano de este tipo de novelas y al caracter didactico y moral que incluyen en alguna medida los relatos.

Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus, generally known as Frankenstein, is a novel written by the British author Mary Shelley. The title of the novel refers to a scientist, Victor Frankenstein, who learns how to create life and creates a being in the likeness of man, but larger than average and more powerful.

It is arguably considered the first fully realized science fiction novel.

Olenin was a youth who had never completed his university course, never served anywhere (having only a nominal post in some government office or other), who had squandered half his fortune and had reached the age of twenty-four without having done anything or even chosen a career. He was what in Moscow society is termed un jeune homme. But he did find a career -- he took a post as a Cadet in the army, and ended up assigned to Transcaucasia. This is the place -- here among the Tatars, the Chechens, and the Old Believers -- this is the place where Olenin will find love in the arms of a beautiful Cossack girl -- a young woman who is promised to a Cossack warrior.

Los trabajos de Persiles y Sigismunda es la última obra de Miguel de Cervantes. Pertenece al subgénero de la novela bizantina. El propio autor la consideró su mejor obra; sin embargo la crítica da este titulo unanimemente a Don Quijote de la Mancha. En ella escribio la dedicatoria al Conde de Lemos el 19 de abril de 1616, cuatro dias antes de morir, donde se despide de la vida citando estos versos:Puesto ya el pie en el estribo,con las ansias de la muerte,gran señor, esta te escribo.
