Madame Bovary (Norton Critical Editions)

The text of this Norton Critical Edition is based on Eleanor Marx Avelingâ€™s celebrated translation, revised by Paul de Man.
Margaret Cohenâ€™s careful editorial revision modernizes and renews Flaubertâ€™s stylistic masterpiece. In addition, Cohen has added to the Second Edition a new introduction, substantially new annotations, and twenty-one striking images, including photographs and engravings, that inform studentsâ€™ understanding of middle-class life in nineteenth-century provincial France. In Madame Bovary, Flaubert created a cogent counter discourse that exposed and resisted the dominant intellectual and social ideologies of his age. The novelâ€™s subversion of conventional moral norms inevitably created controversy and eventually led to Flaubertâ€™s prosecution by the French government on charges of offending "public and religious morality." This Norton edition is the only one available that includes the complete manuscript from Flaubertâ€™s 1857 trial. "Criticism" includes sixteen studies regarding the novelâ€™s central themes, twelve of them new to the Second Edition, including essays by Charles Baudelaire, Henry James, Roland Barthes, Jonathan Culler, and Naomi Schor. A Chronology and Selected Bibliography are also included.
