Pantagruel recounts the life of a popular giant. From his
portentous birth and colorful childhood, to his visit to Paris and
his travels through Utopia, and not withstanding his enormous
appetite, Pantagruel's history is told with a breathtaking degree
of gaiety and wit. Ingeniously coining new expressions, and with an
unashamed obsession with bodily functions, Rabelais blends prose
and poetry, the sacred and profane, to offer a heady satire of the
religious society of his day. Physician and humanist Franois
Rabelais (c. 1494-1553) was a leading figure in Renaissance France.
