Sobre este artículo
The Franklin Library, Franklin Center, Pa, 1955. Fine/No Jacket. Frank C. Pape. Octavo, hardcover, rich brown boards gilt designs. Deluxe edition. All pages edges in gilt. Fine. Giftable. Raised ribs on spine. Wallpaper endpapers. No Jacket. 24 full page drawings; headings in red; 720 pages, last five pages blank, connected series of five novels (the first one in the series, "Pantagruel" published in 1532) featuring two giants--a father (Gargantua) and his son (Pantagruel)--and their adventures. Written in an amusing and extravagant manner--with gratuitous crudity, scatological humor and needless violence. Illustrated by Frank Cheyne Pape--whose illustrations for this volume originally appeared in a two-volume limited edition of THE COMPLETE WORKS OF DOCTOR FRANCOIS RABELAIS (London: The Bodley Head, 1927)).
