Gustave Flaubert is a book that explores the controversy surrounding Gustave Flaubert's novel, Madame Bovary. The book features various essays and articles written by different authors, each offering their own perspective on the public's reaction to Flaubert's work.The essays in the book cover a range of topics, including the legal case against Flaubert for obscenity, the critical response to the novel, and the cultural and social context in which it was written. The authors also examine the themes of the novel, such as the role of women in society and the pursuit of happiness.The book provides a comprehensive look at the controversy surrounding Madame Bovary and its impact on literature and society. It offers insights into the cultural and historical context in which the novel was written and the ways in which it challenged traditional ideas about morality and gender roles.Overall, The Public Versus M. Gustave Flaubert is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of literature, the role of censorship in society, and the ongoing debate over artistic freedom and responsibility.Here we are not concerned with a newspaper article, but entirely with a romance, which begins the first of October, finishes the fifteenth of December, and is composed of six numbers, in the Revue de Paris, 1856. What is to be done in such a case? What is the duty of the Public Ministry? To read the whole romance? That is impossible. On the other hand, to read only the incriminating texts would expose us to deep reproach. They could say to us: If you do not show the case in all its parts, if you pass over that which precedes and that which follows the incriminating passages, it is evident that you wish to suppress the debate by restricting the ground of discussion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Various\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1162706082\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781162706085\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kessinger Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/10\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 84\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.25h x 7.50w x 0.17d","brand":"Various","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48484406296831,"sku":"9781162706085","price":20.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ba3f5e1d-d76a-429f-a3ff-2bb96d246ccd.jpg?v=1778043841","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-public-versus-m-gustave-various-9781162706085","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
