"Le Duchat's is the first of the critical editions. It takes account of differences in the texts, and begins to point out the variations. His very numerous notes are remarkable, and are still worthy of most serious consideration. He was the first to offer useful elucidations, and these have been repeated after him, and with good reason will continue to be so. Le Duchat's commentary was translated into English by John Ozell for his 1737 edition of Gargantua and Pantagruel." (For more information, see: Rabelais, François (ca. 1483-1553), The Works of Francis Rabelais. Translated from the French by Sir Thomas Urquhart and Motteux; with explanatory notes, by Duchat, Ozell, and Others. Volume I [Books 1, 2, and 3 to Chapter 13]. Thomas Urquhart and Peter Motteux, translators. London: H. G. Bohn, 1851. Introduction).
