Yale Univ. Press, New Haven, 1991

ISBN 0300048033

206pp. Offers the first systematic investigation of the earliest and apparently most inchoate of Rabelais's Pantagrueline epics. Combining close textual analysis with careful attention to intellectual, cultural, and literary contexts, Duval shows that, contrary to popular opinion, the Pantagruel is a perfectly coherent work in which every episode is indispensable to the whole. Its simple, intelligible structure points the way to consistent Christian humanist meanings, 8vo, Fine in Fine DJ
