ԱՅԼԱԲԱՆԱԿԱՆ ՎԵՊԻ ՀԱՄԵՄԱՏԱԿԱՆ ՎԵՐԼՈՒԾՈՒԹՅՈՒՆ. ԱՆԱՏՈԼ ՖՐԱՆՍ ԵՎ ՖՐԱՆՍՈՒԱ ՌԱԲԼԵ (Ա.Ֆրանսի «Պինգվինների կղզին» և Ֆ.Ռաբլեի «Գարգանտյուա և Պանտագրյուել» վեպերի նյութի հիման վրա) / COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE ALLEGORICAL NOVEL: ANATOLE FRANZ AND FRANCOIS RABELAIS

The novel “Penguin Island” by Anatole Franz presents almost all stages of French society and the history of civilization through satirical and allegorical paintings. When writing his novel, Anatole Franz was inspired by the novel Gargantua and Pantagruel by F. Rabelais. In the novel by Anatole Franz, real historical figures are hidden under the fictitious names of the characters, and in the novel by Rabelais, the names of the characters have an allegorical meaning, symbolizing the ideas of advanced humanity of the Renaissance, embodying the aspirations and desires of the author regarding the changed world. In their works, Rabelais and Franz with burning irony denounce the vices of the time that hinder the development of mankind and the prosperity of civilization, express their concerns and ideas about happiness, justice and the future of mankind. And it should be noted that their approaches differ sharply from each other. In the novel "Gargantua and Pantagruel" F. Rabelais expresses his faith in the bright future of mankind, in its prosperity, which can be achieved through light and true science. And in the novel by A. Franz "Penguin Island" there is not a single bright spot, as the writer is deeply skeptical about the progress of mankind, and in his novel represents a wild society worthy of contempt and hatred.
