Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Madame Bovary: A Study of Provincial Life From unhealthful morbidities, however, young Flaubert was saved by the sane and normal home life of his family circle. He was sent to a boarding-school in Rouen when he was ten years old, in company with the lads just mentioned, as it was then the custom to send boys to such schools even in the towns where the parents lived, the pupils being allowed to pass Saturdays and Sundays with their families. His taste for literature was not curbed by his parents, who permitted the young people to use the billiard-table as a stage, upon which the aforesaid tragedies were enacted before enthusiastic audiences of friends. At this period the French people were drifting toward the era of literary revolution and the rise of the Romantic School. In Paris a whole seminary broke out in open mutiny because one of the elderly teachers had severely criticised the works of Victor Hugo, the secret idol of ardent youths who had long been condemned to read only the severest classic works. The revolt indeed was entirely due to long-continued and arbitrary repression of literary choice among young people. The French governing class had for many years exercised a self-assumed right to dictate what should be the mental pabulum of its youth, especially in the field of fiction.
