A brief introduction to Flaubert's life

Introduction: Flaubert was a great French critical realist novelist in the mid-19th century, and Mo Bosang once worshipped him as his teacher. Let's take a look at the following brief introduction of Flaubert's life that I have compiled for you.

A brief introduction to Flaubert's life

In 1821, Flaubert was born in a doctor's family in Rouen. His father was the dean of the local municipal hospital, and his family was superior. Father favored Flaubert's brother and asked him to inherit the mantle. For his youngest son Flaubert, he forced him to study law in the hope that he would become a lawyer in the future.

Flaubert, a French writer, became a hit with Madame Bovary at the age of 36. He wrote only six novels and died at the age of 59. By unfolding the three most important novels of his life, we will see a more real and rich side of this writer. Flaubert once declared on different occasions: "Madame Bovary, it's me!" In 1857, the novel Madame Bovary, which had been written for more than four years, was about to close: Emma, the heroine addicted to fantasy, suffered a cruel blow from reality and was betrayed by her lovers one by one. Flaubert finally made her choose to commit suicide by taking poison. Writing about the moment Emma swallowed arsenic, Flaubert convulsed all over her body and shouted that she felt "full of arsenic", as if she had been poisoned.

Flaubert's Emotional Education, published in 1869, is an important work after Madame Bovary. At the beginning of the novel's publication, it had little influence and few bosom friends, and it was not until the beginning of the 2th century that it was widely praised.

Flaubert's window is also an allusion to diligence in the history of literature. His study window is near the Seine River. Because he likes to write at night, he lights a lamp with a green cover all night long, which is like a lighthouse. Fishermen and captains on the Seine all know that if they want to stay on this route, they should aim at "Mr. Flaubert's window".

On May 8, 188, death suddenly struck Flaubert. He died of cerebral hemorrhage, and was buried with his parents and sister Carolina. Mo Bosang wrote: "Finally, this time he fell down and died at the foot of the desk. Literature killed him just as strong love killed a lover. "

Flaubert's famous saying:

1. Extraordinary passion can produce outstanding works.

2. Reason-a poor person who blindly follows his desires is as correct as a serious person who leans his ear to reason.

3. It is better to respect yourself than to love others.

4. The secret of all masterpieces lies in this: the theme is consistent with the author's temperament.

5. Writing a book is different from raising a son, but it is just like building a pyramid. You need to make a plan in advance, and then spend your brain, time and sweat to pile up the stones one by one.

6. Form and thought are like body and soul; In my opinion, this is a whole and inseparable. I don't know what the other will become without this one.

7. Writing is like music: the most beautiful and precious thing is the purity of voice.

8. If you are disappointed every day, you can comfort yourself if you can pin your thoughts on noble character, pure feelings and happy realm.

9. The most glorious day in a person's life is not the day when he achieved fame, but the day when he challenged his life from lamentation and despair, and bravely marched towards his will.

1. Success is the result, not the goal.

11. Our ignorance of history makes us (fei) slander our own times. People always do.

12. Language is a stretching machine, which stretches feelings forever.

13. Everything is based on vanity. Even in the final analysis of what we call conscience, there are hidden seeds of vanity.

14. Pay close attention to what you want to show for a long time, so that you can find the features that others have not found or written.

15. A person who loves writing is in danger of losing sight of what he is writing!
