In nomine vini, et corporis, et spiritus sancti 

Bibliographic Details
Summary:Wine is a literary issue which is represented in the literary work of François Rabelais. The defender of Humanism surpasses the above mentioned theme in order to use it as the basis for an ideal of life by claiming that it would have the virtue ”d’emplir l’âme de toute vérité, tout savoir et philosophie” (Rabelais, Le Cinquiesme livre, chapter xlv). The unrecognized Traité de bon usage de vin presents the project of “savoir-vivre” in which the author explains the value and the place attribued to wine.
