Sinopsis
Excerpt from Francois Rabelais
In my discussion of Rabelais's work I have assumed less knowledge on the part of my readers than I should have done if I had been writing for Frenchmen, and accordingly I have given a more or less detailed analysis of Gargantua and Pantagruel. I have also quoted from the text here and there at con siderable length, using for this purpose the admirable translation of Mr. W. F. Smith, which adheres much more closely to the original than does Urquhart's classical work. In some of the shorter passages quoted the transla tion is my own.

Excerpt from Francois Rabelais
The publication of Des Maret's sand Rathery sedition of Rabelaiss works, in 1857, marked a new epoch in the study of Rabelais. To this edition was prefixed a Life, by Rathery, in which, for the first time, all the legendary matter was carefully pruned away, and no fact was admitted that was not based upon trustworthy evidence. During the last fifty years this biography has held the field, and except for one or two important discoveries made by M. Heulhard in connection with Rabelaiss visit to Italy, and embodied in his book, Rabelais, his Travels in Italy, his Exile at Metz (Rabelais, ses Voyages en Italie, son Exil à Metz)(1891), little addition has been made to our knowledge of Rabelais until very recently.
But at the close of 1902 a fresh impetus was given to Rabelaisian studies by the foundation of the Societe des Etudes Rabelaisiennes, with M. Abel Lefranc as its first President.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a critical biography of François Rabelais, one of the most illustrious literary figures of early 16th-century France. The book draws on a wealth of newly discovered archival evidence to paint a more complete picture of the man and his life. It challenges many assumptions about Rabelais's early life: the book reveals he was born in 1495 and not 1483 as traditionally claimed. The book also presents fresh interpretations of his life, arguing for example that his early education was in a Franciscan friary rather than a Benedictine abbey. The author shows that Rabelais was a man of vast learning, not only in medicine, but across many fields. Engrossed in the spirit of the humanist movement, he was an ardent advocate for the new learning. Rabelais emerges from this book as a figure of great complexity and fascination, a man whose work continues to be read and enjoyed today. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781331897842_0
