About Gargantua

François Rabelais's Gargantua (1534) is the comic encyclopedic masterpiece of French Renaissance humanism — the education and wars of a giant, the Abbey of Thélème with its single rule 'Fais ce que voudras,' and a prose style of torrential invention. The founding text of French literary comedy and the Bakhtinian carnival grotesque.
