About this listen

Pantagruel censuré, Rabelais récidive avec Gargantua, ogre démesuré et grand seigneur de Touraine dont les aventures paraissent encore suspectes aux théologiens. Monstre de paresse, abruti de religion durant son enfance, il échappe au pédantisme des vieux tousseux de la Sorbonne, dérobe au passage les cloches de Notre-Dame, se cultive enfin auprès de l'humaniste Ponocrates, son maître. Survient la fabuleuse " guerre picrocholine ", née d'une querelle entre vignerons et boulangers tourangeaux, où se distingue le merveilleux frère Jean des Entommeures. En récompense, le moine utopiste pourra édifier son abbaye de Thélème où tolérance et liberté feront loi.
