Lowndes 2033. ESTC Citation No. T13265. The first complete edition of Rabelais's works was published in Lyons in 1567 by Jean Martin. Sir Thomas Urquhart's English translation of the first two books "The finest translation ever made from one language into another" according to Charles Whibley appeared in 1653 followed by Peter Anthony Motteux translation of the remaining three volumes and his revisions of Urquhart's first two in 1693 and 1694. Forty-three years later in 1737 John Ozell revised including restoring passages from Urquhart omitted by Motteux and published our edition combining the monumental translations of Sir Thomas Urquhart' wth those of Motteux and adding explanatory notes in an edition that became the standard of the eighteenth and nmineteenth centuries. "For Rabelais-monk physician humanist-nothing succeeds like excess. His giant heroes and their hard-living cronies wallow in the socially aesthetically and politically incorrect. They're sexist gluttonous profane bellicose cruel childish ingenious disputatious and completely vulgar. You wouldn't want them for neighbors but they'd be great on your side in a fight." Michael Dirda Wash. Post 2/16/1992 "Principally the story of two giants a father Gargantua and his son Pantagruel and their adventures presented as a connected series of five novels written in an extravagant satirical vein featuring much crudity scatological humor and violence the censors of the Sorbonne stigmatized the novels as obscene. While the first two books focus on the lives of the giants the rest of the series is mostly devoted to the adventures of Pantagruel's friends including Panurge a roguish erudite maverick and Brother Jean a bold voracious and boozing ex-monk and others on a collective naval journey in search of the Divine Bottle.
