"The Life of Giants" is a satirical novel in the history of French literature. The book is divided into five parts: the first and second parts expound the various propositions of humanistic theory by narrating the birth, education and great achievements of Gargantua and Panguay; the last three parts use Pangouet, Baruch and other partners to search for the sacred bottle and travel around the country to study marriage problems as clues, showing a broad picture of medieval society. The work lashed out at France's feudal society in the 16th century and was a cry from the emerging bourgeoisie against the rule of the feudal church. It fully reflected the humanists' affirmation of people, humanity and human creativity. In the novel, Rabelais cheerfully and honestly criticized the hypocrisy and cruelty of the church, especially denounced the Catholic scholastic education that poisoned children.
