A quarter of century ago, Maurice Molho and Margit Frenk talked in person about don Quixote’s madness in the Second part of Cervantes’ novel. In the present article I reconstruct this dialogue from the subsequent publications that both hispanists dedicated to the topic. After describing their studies, I identify possible mutual influences, correspondences and divergences between them. Finally, I try to harmonize their findings through a personal analysis which states: a) The protagonist dies insane —as Frenk suggests—, but with a different kind of madness; and b) It is not the character —as Mohlo proposes— but the book instead which gains access to the pre-Cartesian rationality. Both proposals converge in the identification of the implicit reader: the well-known gullible reader of knightly fiction, and at the same time the gullible believer.
