Opis

'Madame Bovary' ranks among the world's most famous and widely read novels, and has inspired numerous critical theories. First published in 1987, this study draws on both 20th-century and traditional critical views to provide both students and scholars with a fresh analysis of the novel: its narrative techniques, social background, and underlying structures. By setting the novel in an historical context, and exploring the ways in which it offers a hinge between romanticism and realism, the book establishes a framework through which the reader can assess questions of narrative strategy, of symbolic patterning and most importantly, parody and pastiche.
