The Design of Rabelais's Pantagruel

By Edwin M. Duval

This is a systematic investigation of the earliest work of Rabelais' Pantagrueline epics. Combining textual analysis with attention to intellectual, cultural and literary contexts, Duval shows that, contrary to popular opinion, the Pantagruel is a coherent work in which every episode is indispensable to the whole.
