A playful look at nineteenth-century values and talking points, this dictionary will provide enduring entertainment and prove relevant even...

For Flaubert's contemporaries, the fascination came from the novelist's meticulous account of provincial matters. For the writer, subject matter was subordinate to his anguished quest for aesthetic perfection. For his twentieth-century successors the formal experiments that underpin Madame Bovary look forward to the...
