Synopsis

This book is about the influence of medieval monks on the work of the great French writer François Rabelais. It analyzes the many ways in which Rabelais was inspired by the writings, ideas, and daily lives of monks, despite his often critical view of them. The author examines the influence of monastic life on Rabelais's ideas about education, marriage, death, and the nature of society. Ultimately, the book demonstrates the profound impact that the medieval monastic world had on the development of one of the most important figures in French literature.
