Le procès d'Emma Bovary

SADRžAJ

At the end of January 1857, Gustave Flaubert was sitting in the dock of the sixth correctional chamber of Paris, accused of insulting public morality and religion because of his novel "Madame Bovary". However, it is above all Emma Bovary, the character of the book who is accused and, through her, all women who dare to follow their desires in a conservative patriarchal society. Flaubert will be acquitted and the success of his novel assured. It will leave a great imprint in the society, discussed by writers or interpreters of the role of Emma Bovary, whose story has given rise to numerous film adaptations.
