  • Editing Flaubert: from Paper to Screen
    1 Communication inédite prononcée lors du séminaire de Bergen (Norvège), 26-27 mai 2005 (Université de Bergen / AKSIS – Université Lumière Lyon 2-CNRS / LIRE) : « Publication et lecture numériques. Défis et processus engagés par l’édition critique et les activités de lecture sur supports numériques ». Editing Flaubert: From Paper to Screen. Among Texts and Avant-textes. Stéphanie Dord-Crouslé (CNRS – UMR 5611 LIRE) In order to deal with the editorial problems raised by the work of Gustave Flaubert, I would like here to focus on the point of intersection of two developments, both of them historical, although in different senses. The first one is related to a changing technological situation, thanks to the fast and widespread movement towards using digital supports for the publication of large-scale corpora. The networks for publishing research in France, nonetheless, remain strongly tied to the printed medium. The second problem, less historical than biographical, is rather in connection with my scientific career. I would like to explain how my work on Flaubert’s avant-textes and their publication have transformed my vision of what the final edited version of a text should be, whether it be on paper or in digital form. I will thus especially try to emphasize the interferences at the crossroads (between history and my story), while describing various projects in progress. The corpus of Flaubert’s « complete works » is well defined and of approachable size; it has nothing in common with Balzac's Human Comedy or Proust's Remembrance of Things Past . It contains a collection of « short stories », entitled Three Tales , four novels: Madame Bovary , Salammbô , A Sentimental Education and Bouvard and Pécuchet , and a text of a problematic genre : The Temptation of Saint Anthony , a hybrid between novella and play.

Abstract Previous comparative and parallel ‘genetic criticisms’ of Flaubert and Proust have ignored the different historical underpinnings that circumscribe the act of writing. This work examines the logos of Flaubert and Proust’s work. I examine the historical specificity of A la recherche du temps perdu, in respect of the gender inflections and class-struggles of the Third French Republic. I also put forward a poetics of Flaubertian history relative to L’Education sentimentale. His historical sense and changes in historiographic methodologies all obliged Flaubert to think history differently. Flaubert problematises both history and psychology, as his characterisations repeatedly show an interrupted duality. This characterization is explicated using René Girard’s theories of psychology, action theory and mediation. Metonymic substitution perpetually prevents the satisfaction of desire and turns life into a series of failures.

  • Aspects of the Novel
    8 Aspects of the Novel Do not speak to me about modern times, with respect to the grandiose. There is not enough there to satisfy the imagina­ tion of a fe uilletonist of the lowest order. Flaubert, June 7, 1844 It's equally fatal for the mind to have a system and to have none. It will simply have to decide to combine the two. Friedrich Schlegel, Athenaeum Fragments (17g8) Approaching more general aspects of the novel, I shilll enlarge the focus on narrative perspective to include other dimensions of Flaubert's novelistic practice, for his "dual style" affected other standard components of the novel: themes, plot, characterization, and setting or context. While my treatment of these issues may in certain respects be antic­ ipated given the preceding discussion, it is nonetheless use­ ful to render more explicit the manner in which Madame Bovary recast the traditional novel. In the analysis of cliche, irony, and stupidity, I intimated that Madame Bovary lends itself to thematic unification up to a point but also provokes a questioning of the very thematic lines or leads it holds out to the reader. The trial centered its readings upon the themes of the family and religion. Asso­ ciated with them was the theme of the novel itself in influenc­ ing behavior in "real" life. The prosecution and the defense were in agreement on the ability of fiction to trigger "mi­ metic" effects in ordinary life, for good or ill. They both assumed that readers would read Madame Bovary as Emma herself read novels, and, in attributing great importance to this theme, they joined literary critics who present Emma's 169 Madame Bovary on Trial own quixotic attempt to live what she reads as the unifying explanation which the novel seems to furnish in accounting for her life.

  • Home and City in Dickens's Great Expectations and Flaubert's L
    Home and city in Dickens’s Great Expectations and Flaubert’s L’éducation sentimentale Tone Selboe University of Oslo Synergies Royaume-Uni Royaume-Uni Summary: This article discusses the relationship between urban poetics and domesticity in the nineteenth century novel, with special reference to 95-105 pp. Charles Dickens’s Great Expectations and Gustave Flaubert’s L’éducation et sentimentale, and argues that ‘the problem of homecoming’ is crucial to Irlande both texts. Both novels register a city in rapid expansion and transformation, but while Dickens finds solutions in family life, although he does not permit n° 3 his protagonist one, Flaubert withdraws from any domestic harmonies whatsoever and situates his character in the dream room of the self. However, - 2010 through readings of the two novels the article demonstrates that the novel advocating traditional home values leaves its protagonist a city man, without any dwelling of his own, whereas the novel which most cruelly dismantles any notion of a harmonious dwelling uncorrupted by money, sends its hero back to the bourgeois home of his youth. Keywords: urbanity, domesticity, realism, modernity, bourgeois values, homecoming Résumé : Cet article discute la relation entre la poétique urbaine et la domesticité dans le roman du XIXe siècle, notamment Great Expectations de Charles Dickens et L’Education sentimentale de Gustave Flaubert, et soutient l’importance du problème du retour au foyer dans ces deux textes. Les deux romans saisissent une ville dans un moment d’expansion et de transformation rapides. Mais là où Dickens trouve une solution dans la vie familiale, même s’il n’en autorise pas une à son personnage principal, Flaubert se retire de toute catégorie domestique et situe son personnage dans l’espace onirique du soi.

Based on his own unrequited love for an older woman, "Sentimental Education" is one of the greatest French novels of the nineteenth century. Georey Wall's fresh revision of Robert Baldick's original translation is accompanied by an insightful new introduction discussing the personal and historical influences on Flaubert's writing.

  • Madame Bovary / Gustave Flaubert About the Book…
    Madame Bovary / Gustave Flaubert About the Book… When Emma Rouault marries dull, provincial doctor Charles Bovary, her dreams of an elegant and passionate life crumble. She escapes into sentimental novels but finds her fantasies dashed by the tedium of her days. Motherhood proves to be a burden; religion is only a brief distraction. She spends lavishly and embarks on a series of disappointing affairs. Soon heartbroken and crippled by debts, Emma takes drastic action with tragic consequences for her husband and daughter. About the Author… Gustave Flaubert was born in Rouen in 1821, the son of a prominent physician. A solitary child, he was attracted to literature at an early age, and after his recovery from a nervous breakdown suffered while a law student, he turned his total energies to writing. Aside from journeys to the Near East, Greece, Italy, and North Africa, and a stormy liaison with the poetess Louise Colet, his life was dedicated to the practice of his art. The form of his work was marked by intense aesthetic scrupulousness and passionate pursuit of le mot juste; its content alternately reflected scorn for French bourgeois society and a romantic taste for exotic historical subject matter. The success of Madame Bovary (1857) was ensured by government prosecution for “immorality”; Salammbô (1862) and The Sentimental Education (1869) received a cool public reception; not until the publication of Three Tales (1877) was his genius popularly acknowledged. Among fellow writers, however, his reputation was supreme. His circle of friends included Turgenev and the Goncourt brothers, while the young Guy de Maupassant underwent an arduous literary apprenticeship under his direction.

Big biographies—including a massive five-volume tome by Jean Paul Sartre1 and a recent 620- page book by Frederick Brown2—have been written about a man who, save for a few interludes, lived his entire life in the same house in the same small village in Normandy. For years, Gustave Flaubert (1821-1880) lived with his mother, and, when she died in 1872, he stayed on alone in this village of Croisset. He made his study in a room on the second floor of this three-story house. There he wrote Madame Bovary, the book that, in his lifetime, would make him infamous and, after his death, immortal.
