Journal Article
Rabelaisian Encryptions
2018
Overview
Huchon focuses on Rabelaisian encryptions. Rabelais supplements his Quart livre of 1552- the last work published during his lifetime- with a Brief Declaration of Some of the More Obscure Terms in the Fourth Book of the Heroic Deeds and Sayings of Pantagrue. This Brief Declaration provides an explanation of lexical difficulties, and a key to coded words that reveal modalities of encryption in the text. Certain terms used in Rabelais's work and highlighted in the Brief Declaration serve as privileged markers of steganography, the practice found in both painting and writing that consists of hiding, behind one image, an additional image, which can only be seen from a secret spot designated by the artist, as in the paintings of Archimboldo.
