  • 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.

  • The Warring Brothers: Borges Reads Kafka and Flaubert
    Theory in Action, Vol. 13, No. 4, October (© 2020) DOI:10.3798/tia.1937-0237.2049 The Warring Brothers: Borges Reads Kafka and Flaubert Daniel Balderston1 This article examines the preparatory materials that Borges used to teach courses at the Colegio Libre de Estudios Superiores in Buenos Aires, on Kafka in 1951 and on Flaubert in 1952. Though several well known essays emerged from these courses – “Kafka y sus precursors”, “Flaubert y su destino ejemplar” and “Vindicación de Bouvard et Pécuchet” – the manuscripts reveal far more of Borges's research and thinking about the two authors. Key concepts that he develops in these essays include his unusual (and influential) idea of the “precursor” that is only revealed through reading later works and heterodox ideas about realism and verisimilitude.

While the punk subculture has been analyzed in-depth by such notable theorists as Dick Hebdige and Stuart Hall, their work has been limited to examining the rise and apparent decline of the subculture in England, rendering any further investigations into punk as looking back at a nostalgic novelty of post- World War II British milieu. Furthermore, the commodification of punk music and style has relegated punk to the realm of an alternative culture in Britain and locally in the U.S. In these current international incarnations, however, a social space for this alternative culture is threatened by severe punishment including what Indonesian police officials have label “moral rehabilitation” and, in the case of Russian punks, imprisonment.

Letters requesting histories were sent to all public libraries in Florida with follow-up letters sent after an initial response was received from the libraries. E-mail messages were sent out to FL-LIB listservs encouraging participation in the project. A poster session was presented by Catherine Jasper at the 1998 Florida Library Association (FLA) Annual Conference, an event that marked FLA's 75th anniversary. At the end of this funding period, 89 library systems and organizations had provided histories. These have been compiled and are reproduced in this volume as submitted by participating libraries.
