Book excerpt: Pantagruel est un livre mythique de la littérature française, que l'on pense bien connaître. Pourtant le roman qu'on lit depuis plusieurs siècles diffère notablement du Pantagruel original que Rabelais publia en 1532. Sous la pression des pouvoirs, Rabelais se vit contraint d'y apporter nombre de modifications, et on n'a pas pu véritablement lire, depuis 1532, le flux qui sortit, incandescent, de sa plume. Le Pantagruel de 1532, garde, encore aujourd'hui, sa violence verbale et la nouveauté radicale de son interprétation du monde.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dazzling and exuberant moral stories of Rabelais (c. 1471-1553) expose human follies with their mischievous and often obscene humour, while intertwining the realistic with carnivalesque fantasy to make us look afresh at the world. Gargantua depicts a young giant, reduced to laughable insanity by an education at the hands of paternal ignorance, old crones and syphilitic professors, who is rescued and turned into a cultured Christian knight. And in Pantagruel and its three sequels, Rabelais parodied tall tales of chivalry and satirized the law, theology and academia to portray the bookish son of Gargantua who becomes a Renaissance Socrates, divinely guided in his wisdom, and his idiotic, self-loving companion Panurge.
