Choose another writer in this calendar: by name: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback French Renaissance writer, a Franciscan monk, humanist, and physician, whose comic novels Gargantua and Pantagruel are among the most hilarious classics of world literature. Rabelais' heroes are rude but funny giants traveling in a world full of greed, stupidity, violence, and grotesque jokes. His books were banned by the Catholic Church and later placed on The Index librorum prohibitorumon (the Index of Forbidden Books). "Afterwards I wiped my tail with a hen, with a cock, with a pullet, with a calf's skin, with a hare, with a pigeon, with a cormorant, with an attorney's bag, with a montero, with a coif, with a falconer's lure. But, to conclude, I say and maintain, that of all torcheculs, arsewisps, bumfodders, tail-napkins, bunghole cleansers, and wipe-breeches, there is none in the world comparable to the neck of a goose, that is well downed, if you hold her head betwixt your legs. And believe me therein upon mine honour, for you will thereby feel in your nockhole a most wonderful pleasure, both in regard of the softness of the said down and of the temporate heat of the goose, which is easily communicated to the bum-gut and the rest the inwards, in so far as to come even to the regions of the heart and brains." (from Gargantua Gargantua : "He went to see the jugglers, tumblers, mountebanks, and quacksalvers, and considered their cunning, their shifts, their somersaults and smooth tongue, especially of those of Chauny in Picardy, who are naturally great praters, and brave givers of fibs, in matter of green apes." After the ecclesiastical authorities of the Sorbonne started to confiscate Greek books, Rabelais petitioned Pope Clement VII. He received permission to leave the Franciscan order and join the Benedictines.

29. Francis Rabelais: The Man And His Work (Chapter VII, Section II) Francis Rabelais the Man and his Work (Chapter VII, Section II) 1929. Most especially at this juncture, then, with the Third, Fourth, and Fifth Books in http://alumnus.caltech.edu/~ckank/FultonsLair/013/nock/rabelais.vii.ii.html

Francis Rabelais: the Man and his Work (Chapter VII, Section II) Rabelais is a story-teller First, then, Rabelais is rapid. His thought is never involved, never slackly turning around on itself. One thing runs off into another without digression and at high speed. Each of his sentences says a straight sentence-worth and then runs off swiftly into the next. Nor is his swiftness uneven and jerky, with the movement that the French call ; his sentences and clauses are usually long, but they never drag, they are always pressing swiftly and smoothly forward, carrying the reader with them. By way of illustration, we may cite Epistemon's resume in a single sentence of "the moral comedy of him who had espoused and married a dumb wife"; it occurs in the thirty-fourth chapter of the Third Book: The good honest man, her husband, was very earnestly urgent to have the fillet of her tongue untied, and would needs have her speak by any means; at his desire, some pains were taken on her, and partly by the industry of the physician, other part by the expertness of the surgeon, the encycliglotte which she had under her tongue being cut, she spoke and spoke again: yea, within few hours she spoke so loud, so fiercely and so long that her poor husband returned to the same physician for a recipe to make her hold her peace. Mark the length of that sentence; there are ninety-eight words in it; yet see how swiftly and smoothly it keeps driving forward, how straight and level the track over which it runs. Here one observes, too, in the second place, that Rabelais's speed is not that of the delicately balanced and graceful skater; it is the speed of the heavy express train, giving off an impressive suggestion of great mass and momentum. No weight of words seems able to slacken it, not even the huge polysyllabic monstrosities that he manufactures and throws in every now and then in deference to the conventions of popular farce. He carries the heavy load of Panurge's reflections on the dying poet Raminagrobis, in the twenty-second chapter, as easily and swiftly as he does the story of the dumb wife:

36. The Nation, 02/26/1930 - Rabelais By Vivas, Eliseo The article discusses two books, Francis Rabelais The Man and His Work, by Albert Jay Nock and CR Wilson and Fraznçois Rabelais Man of the Renaissance http://www.nationarchive.com/Summaries/v130i3373_18.htm

Rabelais From The Nation - America's Longest Running Weekly Magazine. Rabelais by Vivas, Eliseo Open the article in The Nation Digital Archive Abstract: The article discusses two books, "Francis Rabelais: The Man and His Work," by Albert Jay Nock and C.R. Wilson and "Fraznçois Rabelais: Man of the Renaissance," by Samuel Putnam. According to authors, Nock and. Wilson seem to lack the necessary qualifications for the criticism of humorist and satirist Francis Rabelais. Their scholarship appears in places to flag. And what is worse, two fundamental defects vitiate their work. They approach their subject in a spirit of unmixed piety, which, one soon realizes, is at best sublimated prudery and they undertake to demonstrate too simple a thesis. It must be indicated in all fairness that their point of view is altogether preferable to the vulgar approach, which regrets the unseemly side of the satirist. Selections from Full Text: ...It must be indicated in all fairness that their point of view is altogether preferable to the vulgar approach which regrets the "unseemly side of our satirist... ...Putnam seetns not to have any inkling of this... ...In their pious simplicity they miss an aspect of his work as important as the one they are so exclusively trying to emphasize... ...And how he would have smiled patronizingly at our authors for even indicating the possibility of a parallelism between him and Marcus Aurelius... ...A need, therefore, has long existed for an introduction to his works and an evaluation in contemporary terms...

37. Gargantua And Pantagruel, By Francois Rabelais (part167) Francois Rabelais. Gargantua and Pantagruel. Chapter 4.XIII. How, like Master Francis Villon, the Lord of Basche commended his servants. http://etext.library.adelaide.edu.au/r/r11g/part167.html

Francois Rabelais Gargantua and Pantagruel Chapter 4.XIII. How, like Master Francis Villon, the Lord of Basche commended his servants. Master Francis Villon in his old age retired to St. Maxent in Poitou, under the patronage of a good honest abbot of the place. There to make sport for the mob, he undertook to get the Passion acted, after the way, and in the dialect of the country. The parts being distributed, the play having been rehearsed, and the stage prepared, he told the mayor and aldermen that the mystery might be ready after Niort fair, and that there only wanted properties and necessaries, but chiefly clothes fit for the parts; so the mayor and his brethren took care to get them. Villon, to dress an old clownish father greybeard, who was to represent God the father, begged of Friar Stephen Tickletoby, sacristan to the Franciscan friars of the place, to lend him a cope and a stole. Tickletoby refused him, alleging that by their provincial statutes it was rigorously forbidden to give or lend anything to players. Villon replied that the statute reached no farther than farces, drolls, antics, loose and dissolute games, and that he asked no more than what he had seen allowed at Brussels and other places. Tickletoby notwithstanding peremptorily bid him provide himself elsewhere if he would, and not to hope for anything out of his monastical wardrobe. Villon gave an account of this to the players, as of a most abominable action; adding, that God would shortly revenge himself, and make an example of Tickletoby.

Francois Rabelais Gargantua and Pantagruel THE FOURTH BOOK Creditur, ex medio quia res arcessit, habere Sudoris minimum; sed habet commoedia tantum Plus oneris, quanto veniae minus. Nos patriam fugimus et dulcia linquimus arva, is obliged to make the language of these happy regions as natural to him as he can, and thankfully say with the rest, under this Protestant government, Deus nobis haec otia fecit. To the most Illustrious Prince and most Reverend Lord Odet, Cardinal de Chastillon. Above all things, the forecited authors have given particular directions to physicians about the words, discourse, and converse which they ought to have with their patients; everyone aiming at one point, that is, to rejoice them without offending God, and in no wise whatsoever to vex or displease them. Which causes Herophilus much to blame the physician Callianax, who, being asked by a patient of his, Shall I die? impudently made him this answer: Patroclus died, whom all allow By much a better man than you. As much was done by his son, our most gracious, virtuous, and blessed sovereign, Henry, whom Heaven long preserve! so that he granted you his royal privilege and particular protection for me against my slandering adversaries. You kindly condescended since to confirm me these happy news at Paris; and also lately, when you visited my Lord Cardinal du Bellay, who, for the benefit of his health, after a lingering distemper, was retired to St. Maur, that place (or rather paradise) of salubrity, serenity, conveniency, and all desirable country pleasures.
