Description

1798 ART of Francois Rabelais Illustrated Gargantua Pantagruel French Literature

â€œSeeing how sorrow eats you, defeats you.

Id rather write about laughing than crying,

For laughter makes men human, and courageous.”

â€• FranÃ§ois Rabelais, Gargantua and Pantagruel

FranÃ§ois Rabelais was an early 16th-century French writer. He is often considered one of the earliest fantasy writers and, because of his monumental work Gargantua and Pantagruel, he helped establish the modern European literary style. According to Merriam-Webster, the world rabelaisian has been coined as something that is "marked by gross robust humor, extravagance of caricature, or bold naturalism." (MW, Rabelaisian).

This 1798 French edition was published by Ferdinand Bastien in Paris in three leather-bound tomes who included 76 full-page illustrations throughout!
