Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Family Idiot is a masterwork by one of the greatest intellects of the twentieth century. Published in three massive volumes in French between 1971 and 1972, and five volumes in English translation between 1981 and 1993, Jean-Paul Sartre's classic study of Gustave Flaubert is now available to readers in English for the first time in a more digestible abridged edition. For Sartre, understanding how Flaubert became Flaubert-how he came to be the person who penned Madame Bovary-helps us understand the very nature of the modern self. Sartre devoted a decade at the end of his life to crafting this exhaustive work and it serves as a summary of his committed philosophy. Compiled by renowned Sartre scholar Joseph S. Catalano, this abridgment retains the brilliance of the sprawling original and reveals how we are still haunted by the nihilism of the imaginary that was beautifully captured by Sartre"--
Download or read book Madame Bovary written by Gustave Flaubert and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2010-09-23 with total page 479 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For daring to peer into the heart of an adulteress and enumerate its contents with profound dispassion, the author of Madame Bovary was tried for "offenses against morality and religion." What shocks us today about Flaubert's devastatingly realized tale of a young woman destroyed by the reckless pursuit of her romantic dreams is its pure artistry: the poise of its narrative structure, the opulence of its prose (marvelously captured in the English translation of Francis Steegmuller), and its creation of a world whose minor figures are as vital as its doomed heroine. In reading Madame Bovary, one experiences a work that remains genuinely revolutionary almost a century and a half after its creation.

Download or read book The Odd Women written by George Gissing and published by Broadview Press. This book was released on 2021-05-21 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Gissing’s The Odd Women dramatizes key issues relating to class and gender in late-Victorian culture: the changing relationship between the sexes, the social impact of ‘odd’ or ‘redundant’ women, the cultural impact of ‘the new woman,’ and the opportunities for and conditions of employment in the expanding service sector of the economy. At the heart of these issues as many late Victorians saw them was a problem of the imbalance in the ratio of men to women in the population. There were more females than males, which meant that more and more women would be left unmarried; they would be ‘odd’ or ‘redundant,’ and would be forced to be independent and to find work to support themselves. In the Broadview edition, Gissing’s text is carefully annotated and accompanied by a range of documents from the period that help to lay out the context in which the book was written. In Gissing’s story, Virginia Madden and her two sisters are confronted upon the death of their father with sudden impoverishment. Without training for employment, and desperate to maintain middle-class respectability, they face a daunting struggle. In Rhoda Nunn, a strong feminist, Gissing also presents a strong character who draws attention overtly to the issues behind the novel. The Odd Women is one of the most important social novels of the late nineteenth century.

One year after her mother’s suicide and just one day after her father’s brokenhearted demise, twelve-year-old Berthe Bovary is sent to live on her grandmother’s impoverished farm. Amid the beauty of the French countryside, Berthe models for the painter Jean-François Millet, but fate has more in store for her than a quiet life of simple pleasures. Berthe’s determination to rise above her mother’s scandalous past will take her from the dangerous cotton mills of Lille to a convent in Rouen to the wealth and glamour of nineteenth-century Paris. There, as an apprentice to famed fashion designer Charles Frederick Worth, Berthe is ushered into the high society of which she once only dreamed. But even as the praise for her couture gowns steadily rises, she still yearns for the one thing her mother never had: the love of someone she loves in return. Brilliantly integrating one of classic literature’s fictional creations with real historical figures, Madame Bovary’s Daughter is an uncommon coming-of-age tale, a splendid excursion through the rags and the riches of French fashion, and a sweeping novel of poverty and wealth, passion and revenge.
