Hudibras, Volume 2, by Samuel Butler, translated by John Towneley, is a satirical poem written in French. This volume continues the adventures of the knight Hudibras, lampooning the politics and religious factions of the time. Butler's wit and sharp observations make this work a significant example of 17th-century satirical literature. This edition, translated by Towneley, makes Butler's sharp wit accessible to a French-speaking audience, preserving the satirical spirit and poetic form of the original. Hudibras remains a relevant and humorous commentary on political and social hypocrisy.
