Synopsis:

Collection : Classiques Sujet : Roman, essai, document Édition présentée et commentée par Pierre-Louis Rey, professeur de littérature française à l'université de la Sorbonne Nouvelle (Paris III). Frédéric Moreau, jeune bachelier provincial, " tourne dans son désir comme un prisonnier dans son cachot. " Il se croit destiné aux plus grandes passions et aux succès littéraires et artistiques. En 1840, sur le pont d'un bateau, il est troublé par le charme de Mme Arnoux, femme d'un marchand de tableaux. Mais les années s'écoulent, les rêves s'effritent, et son amour lui-même s'étiole au contact de la vie parisienne. Mme Arnoux restera pourtant l'adoration de son adolescence, l'amante et la mère qui aurait pu le préserver de la vulgarité du monde. Le public et la critique de l'époque ne comprirent pas ce roman mélancolique des ambitions déçues, qui allait cependant servir de modèle à toutes les générations à venir... Lire avec le texte intégral et la préface présentant l' uvre et son auteur. Comprendre avec " Les clés de l' uvre " : 20 pages pour aller à l'essentiel ; 34 pages pour approfondir.

About the Author: Known for his scrupulous devotion to his art and perfectionist style, French writer Gustave Flaubert is counted among the greatest Western novelists, and influenced such writers as Franz Kafka and J. M. Coetzee. Flaubert is best known for Madame Bovary, for which he was prosecuted (and acquitted) for offending public morals. His other works of note include Memoirs of a Madman, November, Salammb?, Sentimental Education, and The Temptation of Saint Anthony. His work has been widely adapted for the stage and screen. Flaubert died in 1880.
