Robert Rabelais the Younger is of course a pseydonym. The work was noticed in Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine: "Abeillad and Heloisa a new and original didactive poem is now in the press and will be published in a few days; called A Nineteenth Century and Familiar History of the Lives Loves & Misfortunes of Abeillard and Heloisa A Matchless Pair who flourished in the twelfth century: A Poem in Twelve Cantos. Illustrated with Ten Engravings. By Robert Rabelais the Younger. The work is altogether historical but the various elucidations may be deemed a material matrimonial comical farcical tragical satirical anecdotal clerical nautical regimental ethical metaphysical theological philosophical critical political and all the terminative faculty of als !" For further enlightenment entertainment and elucidation see Stephen J. Gertz's blog Booktryst: http://www.booktryst.com/2014/01/a-19th-c-rare-book-with-worst-reviews.html which concludes: "Rabelais the Younger! could have used a dose of Lithium to get through his mania. Readers will need a Valium to get through the booK." Obviously every reader and every library MUST HAVE A COPY. London: Printed for J. Bumpus..., 1819 hardcover

Cette physionomie qae, depuis quatre siecles, on a si souvent declare enigmatique, comment pouvons-nous nous la representer aujourd'hui ? - Michelet regrettait qu'iljut impossible d'ecrire une vie de Rabelais, en raison de lapenurie de documents authentiques dont l'historien disposait de son temps. Cette documentation s'est, de nos jours, sensiblement accrue. L'erudition a recueilli depuis un demi-siecle une Joule de renseignements sur la famille de Rabelais, sur ses amis, sur le credit dont jouissaient ses pro-tecteurs, sur la formation de son esprit, sursa culture, sur les circonstances de la publication de son oeuvre, sur ses adveres, sur les rapports de ses fictions avec la litterature et Fesprit populaires. … (Vorwort) // François Rabelais (* um 1494, vielleicht 1483 in La Devinière bei Chinon/Touraine; † 9. April 1553 in Paris) war ein französischer Schriftsteller der Renaissance, Humanist, römisch-katholischer Ordensbruder (seit 1511 der Franziskaner, ab 1524 der Benediktiner) und als Mediziner praktizierender Arzt und Dozent. Er gehört zu den bedeutendsten Prosaschriftstellern der französischen Literatur. ...
