SUMMARY

"Gargantua" depicts a young giant who becomes a cultured Christian knight. "Pantagruel" portrays Gargantua s bookish son who becomes a Renaissance Socrates, divinely guided by wisdom and by his idiotic, self-loving companion, Panurge.Rabelais, François is the author of 'Gargantua and Pantagruel', published 1991 under ISBN 9780393308068 and ISBN 0393308065.
