Sancho Panza
Sancho Panza is the squire of famous parodial knight-errant Don Quixote in the same-named novel by Spanish author Miguel de Cervantes.
As the actual servant of Don Quixote before his madness, Panza follows the don after reading too many romances makes him insane. Quixote's imagination turns Panza from a devoted servant to a squire, as it turns him from an estate owner to a knight. Panza is a lower class character who does not share his master's delusions but who follows faithfully. Sancho's comments during the novel are often full of broad humor and common sensical observations. Additionally, Panza offers interpolated narratives into the tale. As a character, he has become synonymous with sidekick.
