Beskrivelse af Selections From Rabelais' Gargantua
Selections from Rabelais' Gargantua is a collection of excerpts from the famous French satirical novel, Gargantua, written by Francis Rabelais. The book is a humorous and irreverent commentary on the society and culture of 16th century France, and is centered around the larger-than-life character of Gargantua, a giant who is born fully grown and embarks on a series of absurd and outrageous adventures.The selected passages in this book showcase Rabelais' unique style of writing, which combines bawdy humor, philosophical musings, and biting social commentary. The themes explored in these excerpts range from the absurdities of medieval medicine and education to the excesses of the Catholic Church and the hypocrisy of the aristocracy.Throughout the book, Rabelais uses Gargantua as a vehicle for his satirical observations, and the character's larger-than-life personality and actions serve as a symbol for the excesses and absurdities of the society he lives in. The book is a classic of French literature, and is widely regarded as one of the greatest works of satire in the Western canon.Overall, Selections from Rabelais' Gargantua is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of French literature, satire, and social commentary. The book is both entertaining and thought-provoking, and offers a fascinating glimpse into the mind of one of the most important writers of the Renaissance era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
