François Rabelais  : [unknown]

'Although Mrs Craigie carried out her "duties" as a Roman Catholic, she took her religion lightly, and from her writings it was easy to read that she did not mind jests about the saints ... She told me that her conversion was entirely due to her reading Rabelais, which at the time I believed literally'

Century: 1850-1899     Reader/Listener/Group: Pearl Mary Teresa Craigie      Print: Book
