Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A Simple Heart moved me to tears."—Russell Baker In A Simple Heart, the poignant story that inspired Julian Barnes' Flaubert’s Parrot, Félicité, a French housemaid, approaches a lifetime of servitude with human-scaled but angelic aplomb. No other author has imparted so much beauty and integrity to so modest an existence. Flaubert's "great saint" endures loss after loss by embracing the rich, true rhythms of life: the comfort of domesticity, the solace of the Church, and the depth of memory. This novella showcases Flaubert's perfectly honed realism: a delicate counterpoint of daily events with their psychological repercussions. "Flaubert is diagnosis," Ezra Pound wrote, "the whole of Flaubert, the whole fight for the novel as 'histoire morale contemporaine' was a fight against maxims, against abstractions, a fight back toward a human and/or total conception."
Download or read book A Simple Soul written by Gustave Gustave Flaubert and published by . This book was released on 2020-08-23 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Having finished "The Legend of Saint Julien," Flaubert, as he said, was too excited to take on much work. In March 1876, he began his second novel "A Simple Heart", completed in September of the same year.He had already somewhat developed the idea of the second story inspired by the memories of his youth. In Trouville, in the friendly to Flaubert family of Barbe, Gustave saw a stuffed parrot, a favorite of the servant of Leonie and heard the story of the maid told by herself. Leonie merged with Julie - the maid of Flaubert's cousin Mme Alla, who can be found in Mrs. Aubin. A number of episodes of the story are the memories of Flaubert's childhood: a bull on the farm of Zefos, the arrival of a farmer from Tuk, bathing and gathering shells in Trouville. The description of walks riding on a donkey to the rocks of Epequil is found in Flaubert's notebook, dating back to the early sixties; from there it is transferred without changes to the "A Simple Heart."

Book excerpt: Gustave Flaubert (12 December 1821 - 8 May 1880) was a French novelist. Highly influential, he has been considered the leading exponent of literary realism in his country. According to the literary theorist Kornelije Kvas, "in Flaubert, realism strives for formal perfection, so the presentation of reality tends to be neutral, emphasizing the values and importance of style as an objective method of presenting reality". He is known especially for his debut novel Madame Bovary (1857), his Correspondence, and his scrupulous devotion to his style and aesthetics. The celebrated short story writer Guy de Maupassant was a protégé of Flaubert.

This book was released on 2023-12-05 with total page 5157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Aquinas's Summa Theologica is a monumental work that is widely considered one of the most important texts in the history of philosophy and theology. Divided into three main parts, the book addresses a wide range of theological topics, providing rigorous arguments and insightful analysis. Aquinas's writing style is characterized by its clarity and logical precision, making it accessible to both scholars and general readers. The text's incorporation of interactive links and annotations enhances the reading experience, offering readers a more comprehensive understanding of Aquinas's complex arguments within their historical context. Thomas Aquinas, a highly influential philosopher and theologian, drew upon both Christian doctrine and Aristotelian philosophy to create the Summa Theologica. His deep understanding of both intellectual traditions allowed him to reconcile faith and reason in a way that had a lasting impact on Western thought. Aquinas's dedication to exploring the nature of God and the universe shines through in this comprehensive work, showcasing his intellectual breadth and depth. I highly recommend Summa Theologica to readers interested in delving into the complexities of theological and philosophical discourse. Aquinas's profound insights and meticulous reasoning make this text a must-read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the relationship between faith and reason.

Jim, a young British seaman, becomes first mate on the Patna, a ship full of pilgrims travelling to Mecca for the hajj. When the ship starts rapidly taking on water and disaster seems imminent, Jim joins his captain and other crew members in abandoning the ship and its passengers. A few days later, they are picked up by a British ship. However, the Patna and its passengers are later also saved, and the reprehensible actions of the crew are exposed. The other participants evade the judicial court of inquiry, leaving Jim to the court alone. He is publicly censured for this action and the novel follows his later attempts at coming to terms with his past. The novel is counted as one of 100 best books of the 20th century. Joseph Conrad (1857-1924), was a Polish author who wrote in English after settling in England. Conrad is regarded as one of the greatest novelists in English, though he did not speak the language fluently until he was in his twenties. He wrote stories and novels, often with a nautical setting, that depict trials of the human spirit in the midst of an indifferent universe. He was a master prose stylist who brought a distinctly non-English tragic sensibility into English literature.

Book excerpt: "A Simple Heart", also called Un coeur simple or Le perroquet in French, is a story about a servant girl named Felicit�. After her one and only love Th�odore purportedly marries a well-to-do woman to avoid conscription, Felicit� quits the farm she works on and heads for Pont-l'�v�que where she immediately picks up work in a widow's house as a servant. She is very loyal, and easily lends her affections to the two children of her mistress, Mme Aubain. She gives entirely to others, and although many take advantage of her she is unaffected.

Download or read book The Wheels of Chance Unabridged written by H. G. Wells and published by e-artnow. This book was released on 2015-04-27 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This carefully crafted ebook: "The Wheels of Chance (Unabridged)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. The Wheels of Chance is an early comic novel about an August 1895 cycling holiday. The Wheels of Chance was written at the height of the cycling craze (1890-1905), when practical, comfortable bicycles first became widely and cheaply available and before the rise of the automobile. The advent of the bicycle stirred sudden and profound changes in the social life of England. Even the working class could travel substantial distances, quickly and cheaply, and the very idea of travelling for pleasure became a possibility for thousands of people for the first time. This new freedom affected many. It began to weaken the rigid English class structure and it gave an especially powerful boost to the existing movement toward female emancipation. Wells explored these social changes in his story. Herbert George Wells (1866-1946), known as H. G. Wells, was a prolific English writer in many genres, including the novel, history, politics, and social commentary, and textbooks and rules for war games.
