Seller's Description:
Finley bound example of the works of French Renaissance writer Francois Rabelais. Octavo, bound in three quarters morocco with gilt titles and raised bands, top edge gilt, marbled endpapers, illustrated by Gustave Dore with engravings including tissue-guarded frontispiece. In near fine condition. French Renaissance writer and humanist Francois Rabelais is widely considered one of the greatest wirters in world literature and among the creators of modern European writing. His literary legacy is such that today, the word Rabelaisian has been coined as a descriptive inspired by his work and life. Merriam-Webster defines the word as describing someone or something that is "marked by gross robust humor, extravagance of caricature, or bold naturalism".
