Francois Rabelais (1483?-1553) is a difficult and often misunderstood author, whose reputation for coarse "Rabelaisian" jesting and "Gargantuan" indulgence in food, drink, and sex is highly misleading. He was in fact a committed humanist who expressed strong views on religion, good government, education, and much more through the mock-heroic adventures of his giants. While most books about Rabelais have relatively little to say about his comedic genius, Enter Rabelais, Laughing analyses the many sides of Rabelais's humor, focusing on why his writing was so hilariously funny to sixteenth-century readers. The author begins by discussing how the Renaissance defined laughter and situates Rabelais in a long tradition of literary laughter. Subsequent chapters examine specific contexts relevant to Gargantua and Pantagruel, beginning with the comic aspects of epic, chronicle, mock-epic, and farce, and proceeding to Renaissance and Reformation humanist satire, rhetoric, medicine, and law. All of these chapters combine information, much of it new, on the humanist message Rabelais wanted to convey to his readers, with an analysis of how he used his wit to reinforce his message. Rarely is a writer's work treated in such illuminating detail. On a broad level, Enter Rabelais, Laughing serves as an excellent introduction to French Renaissance literature and exhibits a remarkably charming and lucid writing style, free of jargon. To Rabelais scholars in particular it offers a thorough and innovative analysis that corrects misconceptions and questions commonly held views.

In Renaissance Cultural Crossroads: Translation, Print and Culture in Britain, 1473-1640, twelve scholars assemble the latest interdisciplinary research in the fields of translation and print in Britain and appraise for the first time the connection between the two. The section Translation and Early Print discusses how translation shaped the beginnings of British book production. 'Translation, Fiction and Print' examines some Italian and Spanish literary translations and their paratexts. Instruction through Translation demonstrates how translators established an international fund of knowledge. Shaping Mind and Nation through Translation focusses on translations specifically disseminating knowledge of medicine, navigation, military matters, and news. The volume constitutes a timely contribution to the ever-expanding fields of translation studies and print history but is also relevant to cultural, social and intellectual history.

"Behind every thing there is almost always something else hidden." Certainly more than meets the eye with playful images and conceits, while most of it takes place in the head of Mr. Malerba's scapegrace little stamp dealer, confined in his small shop with its "odor of gum arabic. . . of faint mold." In the beginning, he is married to a spiteful wife; he is an insomniac; he smokes too many cigarettes. In the smoke rings--there's the lovely Miriam whom sometimes he suspects (ah, the serpent) of infidelity with his good friend Baldasseroni. But then, she doesn't even know him. He takes her to a radiologist for some other latent malignancy: he later consigns her to Hell - in fact he may have killed her. He's a Cannibal; he's a Sorcerer: he's a free-floater with the motility of a paramecium. Is he anybody? Is he everybody? Perhaps, and the book, while an eclectic entertainment, is prankishly ingenuous, imaginative. Volatile."--Kirkus

Cette nouvelle bibliographie donne la liste de tous les exemplaires de toutes les éditions des oeuvres de Rabelais parues avant 1626 et que l'on a pu repérer. Sont étudiés aussi les ouvrages édités par Rabelais et les ouvrages proto-rabelaisien ou apocryphes. Chacune de ces 148 éditions (identifiées et décrites selon les normes de la bibliographie dite "anglo-saxonne") est étudiée en détail. L'importance de chaque édition pour la transmission, le développement et la corruption des textes rabelaisiens est mise en relief. C'est à partir de ce travail qu'une nouvelle édition critique de textes de Rabelais sera établie. A l'aide cette bibliographie il est enfin possible de comprendre d'une façon plus sûre le destin de Rabelais, de ses oeuvres, et la création des légendes au sujet de Maistre François.
