A monk, medical doctor, translator and editor, Rabelais embodies the ideals of Renaissance humanism. His genre-bending fiction combines vast erudition, comic verve, and critical observations of all spheres of contemporary life that are relevant to this day. Two sections of this volume situate Rabelais's work in the larger social, political, and literary context of his time. A third section gives concise interpretations of each of the five books of the Pantagrueline Chronicles. The contributors are eminent scholars of early modern literature, many of whom write in English for the first time"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The French humanist Rabelais (ca. 1483-1553) was the greatest French writer of the Renaissance and one of the most influential authors of all time. His Gargantua and Pantagruel, written in five books between 1532 and 1553, rivals the works of Shakespeare and Cervantes in terms of artistry, complexity of ideas and expression, and historical importance. Rabelais is read in numerous courses in French Literature, Renaissance Studies, and Western Civilization, and his writings continue to attract the attention of scholars and general readers alike. The first work of its kind, this encyclopedia is a comprehensive guide to his life and writings. Included are several hundred alphabetically arranged entries by expert contributors. These entries discuss his characters, his overt and veiled references to historical and Renaissance figures and events, his literary and philosophical allusions, his major themes, and the key events and influences that shaped his career. The entries cover such topics as education, religion, censors and censorship, humanism, death, and warfare. Entries cite works for further reading, and the encyclopedia closes with a selected, general bibliography.

Book The Design of Rabelais s

Download or read book The Design of Rabelais s written by Edwin M. Duval and published by Librairie Droz. This book was released on 1997 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En analysant le “dessin” du Tiers Livre - sa composition formelle aussi bien que son intention sous-jacente - E. Duval dégage la cohérence profonde d'une œuvre qui passe le plus souvent pour ambiguë et “ménippéenne”. Cette cohérence, qui se manifeste simultanément à deux niveaux (celui du dessin de Pantagruel dans la quête, celui du dessin de Rabelais dans son livre), permet à l'auteur non seulement de résoudre plusieurs apories de la critique rabelaisienne, mais de découvrir dans le Tiers Livre des dimensions et des ironies inaperçues jusqu'à présent.

Book Rabelais s Radical Farce

Download or read book Rabelais s Radical Farce written by E. Bruce Hayes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-23 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the first extended investigation of the importance of dramatic farce in Rabelais studies, Bruce Hayes makes an important contribution to the understanding of the theater of farce and its literary possibilities. By tracing the development of farce in late medieval and Renaissance comedic theater in comparison to the evolution of farce in Rabelais's work, Hayes distinguishes Rabelais's use of the device from traditional farce. While traditional farce is primarily conservative in its aims, with an emphasis on maintaining the status quo, Rabelais puts farce to radical new uses, making it subversive in his own work. Bruce Hayes examines the use of farce in Pantagruel, Gargantua, and the Tiers and Quart livres, showing how Rabelais recast farce in a humanist context, making it a vehicle for attacking the status quo and posing alternatives to contemporary legal, educational, and theological systems. Rabelais's Radical Farce illustrates the rich possibilities of a genre often considered simplistic and unsophisticated, disclosing how Rabelais in fact introduced both a radical reformulation of farce, and a new form of humanist satire.

Book The Poetics of Quotation in the European Novel

Download or read book The Poetics of Quotation in the European Novel written by Herman Meyer and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-12-08 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work, which has had a pronounced impact on European literary scholarship since its publication in 1961, represents a new and imaginative approach to the history and poetics of the novel. Emil Staiger, dean of Swiss critics, describes Professor Meyer as " ... a literary historian, who has a sense for the mixture of seriousness and playfulness in literature, who can talk seriously about the play and ironically about the seriousness ... who has at his disposal the most thorough knowledge and never becomes ponderous ... writes easily and gracefully." The art of quoting is traced in Rabelais, Cervantes, and Sterne, followed by the development of these techniques in six major novelists from Wieland to Thomas Mann. Originally published in 1968. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
