With an Introduction by Roger Clark, University of Kent at Canterbury Castigated for offending against public decency, Madame Bovary has rarely failed to cause a storm. For Flaubert’s contemporaries, the fascination came from the novelist’s meticulous account of provincial matters.

For his twentieth-century successors the formal experiments that underpin Madame Bovary look forward to the innovations of contemporary fiction. Flaubert s protagonist in particular has never ceased to

Gustave Flaubert (1821-1880) war ein französischer Schriftsteller. Flaubert schrieb schon in seiner Jugend unermüdlich, zunächst im Stil der Romantik. Sein erstes gedrucktes Werk wurde schließlich -1856 im Feuilleton einer Zeitschrift und 1857 als Buch- der 1851 begonnene Roman Frau Bovary, der ihm sogleich einen Prozess wegen Verstoßes gegen die Sitten eintrug, dadurch aber ein Skandalerfolg wurde. Weniger erfolgreich, aber noch einflussreicher auf die Entwicklung des europäischen Romans war Die Erziehung des Herzens (1869). Flaubert gilt als einer der besten Stilisten der französische

Based on Flaubert’s own youthful passion for an older woman, Sentimental Education was described by its author as "the moral history of the men of my generation." It follows the amorous adventures of Frederic Moreau, a law student who, returning home to Normandy from Paris, notices Mme Arnoux, a slender, dark woman several years older than himself. It is the beginning of an infatuation that will last a lifetime. He befriends her husband, an influential businessman, and as their paths cross and re-cross over the years, Mme Arnoux remains the constant, unattainable love of More
