EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, titled "Le Sophiste feut introduict et commenca sa harangue en toussant" we are transported back in time to witness a momentous event. The scene depicts the introduction of a sophisticated speaker, known as the Sophist, who is about to deliver an important speech. However, what makes this particular moment intriguing is that the Sophist begins his address by coughing. The historical significance of this image lies in its connection to Francois Rabelais' renowned work, Gargantua and Pantagruel. Illustrated by Albert Robida for a publication in 1928, it captures a pivotal scene from Rabelais' literary masterpiece. Rabelais himself was a prominent French writer and doctor during the 16th century. As we delve into this artwork's narrative, we can't help but wonder why the Sophist chose such an unconventional way to commence his discourse. Was it merely a theatrical gesture or did it hold deeper meaning? Perhaps it symbolizes how even great speakers may stumble at times before finding their voice. Albert Robida's skillful rendering transports us back in time while also reminding us of the enduring power of literature and its ability to capture moments from history. This print serves as both an homage to Rabelais' genius and an invitation for viewers to explore the rich tapestry of French literature and culture.
