Gargantua and Pantagruel : ウィキペディア英語版 | Gargantua and Pantagruel
''The Life of Gargantua and of Pantagruel'' ((フランス語:La vie de Gargantua et de Pantagruel)) is a pentalogy of novels written in the 16th century by François Rabelais, which tells of the adventures of two giants, Gargantua (; ) and his son Pantagruel (; ). The text is written in an amusing, extravagant, and satirical vein, and features much crudity, scatological humor, and violence (lists of explicit or vulgar insults fill several chapters). The censors of the Collège de la Sorbonne stigmatized it as obscene, and in a social climate of increasing religious oppression in a lead up to the French Wars of Religion, it was treated with suspicion, and contemporaries avoided mentioning it.〔Le Cadet, Nicolas (2009) ''(Marcel De Grève, La réception de Rabelais en Europe du XVIe au XVIIIe siècle )'', Cahiers de recherches médiévales et humanistes, Comptes rendus (par année de publication des ouvrages), 2009, (ligne ), mis en ligne le 20 avril 2010. Consulté le 22 novembre 2010.〕 According to Rabelais, the philosophy of his giant Pantagruel, "Pantagruelism", is rooted in "a certain gaiety of mind pickled in the scorn of fortuitous things" (French: ''une certaine gaîté d'esprit confite dans le mépris des choses fortuites''). Rabelais had studied Ancient Greek and he applied it in inventing hundreds of new words in the text, some of which became part of the French language.〔Bakhtin, Mikhail. ''Rabelais and his World''. Bloomington: Indiana UP, 1984. p. 110.〕 Wordplay and risqué humor abound in his writing. ==Initial publication== Although different editions divide the work into a varying number of tomes, the original book is a single novel consisting of five volumes.
