  • Maupassant and Literary Relationship with His Mentor Gustave Flaubert
    Maupassant and Literary Relationship with his Mentor Gustave Flaubert –Richa Smriti* & Dr. Aroonima Sinha# *Research Scholar, Department of English, LN Mithila University, Darbhanga, Bihar (India). Email: [email protected], Mob. No.: 9523560543 #Professor and Head, University Department of English, LN Mithila University, Darbhanga The short stories of the nineteenth century French writers Gustave Flaubert and Guy de Maupassant deeply influenced and helped to define the short story as a distinct and serious genre with its own protocols, techniques and interests. Maupassant is considered one of the fathers of the modern short story, who shares a number of literary qualities with his mentor Gustave Flaubert. Both men aspired to great meticulous and their works noted for their truthful characterization, psychological complexity, ironic treatment and a commitment to what came to be known as literary realism, distinguished for its unvarnished depiction of contemporary life and society and the common man and woman. The greatest influence on Maupassant’s life and career was Flaubert, a childhood friend of his mother, who personally said to Flaubert to take her son under his wing. Hence she sent her son to make Flaubert’s acquaintance at Croisset in 1867, and when he returned Paris after the war, she asked Flaubert to keep an eye on him. This was a beginning of the apprenticeship that was the making of Maupassant, the short story writer. Whenever Flaubert was staying in Paris, he used to invite Maupassant to lunch on Sundays, lecture him on prose style and correct his youthful literary exercises. Even Flaubert’s advises Maupassant’s mother to encourage her son in his taste of verse, writing and holds out hope that in time the young man may accomplish something worthy of literary fame (Riddell, 2).

  • A Comparative Study of Gustave Flaubert's Madame Bovary
    A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF GUSTAVE FLAUBERT'S MADAME BOVARY AND EMILE ZOLA'S THERESE-RAQUIN A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF ATLANTA UNIVERSITY IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS BY ALSYLVIA SMITH DEPARTMENT OF FRENCH ATLANTA, GEORGIA JUNE 1969 w TABLE OF CONTENTS Page PREFACE Chapter I. INTRODUCTION 1 II. A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF MADAME BOVARY 27 III. A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THERESE-RAQUIN 56 CONCLUSION 77 BIBLIOGRAPHY 86 ii PREFACE The purpose of this study is to analyze Gustave Flaubert's Madame Bovarv and Emile Zola's Therese-Raquin and to point out the similari ties and differences between the two works. In order to make a com parison between these two works, a critical analysis will be made of each work, placing emphasis on the theme, style, and character develop ment. Although Madame Bovarv is a Realistic novel while TheVese-Requin is a Naturalistic novel, there still remains a great deal of similarity between the two literary works. Since Flaubert was the leader of the Realist school and Zola was the leader of the Naturalist school, it was felt that a comparative study of a representative work of each au thor would contribute to a better appreciation of these two phases of the nineteenth century novel. This study is divided into three chapters. The first chapter serves as an introduction and includes a biographical sketch of each author and vital details concerning their milieu. Chapter two consists of an analysis of Madame Bovarv. In Chapter three will be presented an analysis of Therese-Raquin.

Flaubert remade the image of the novelist, as pure artist, for whom style was all that mattered, and disrupted novelistic technique, in ways that critics and writers have found exemplary, treating this as the novel novelists cannot overlook; yet for readers Madame Bovary is not a “book about nothing” but provides a searing portrait of provincial life and of the condition of women. The vividness and complexity of the character Flaubert created here made Emma a type: a sufferer of “Bovarysme.” Flaubert’s revolution- ary notion that a trivial subject was as good as a noble subject for a serious novel was taken to be connected to the democratic notion that every hu- man subject is as worthy as another and allowed to have desires.
