[edit] FLAUBERT AND THE PICTORIAL ARTS

Viewed by Flaubert as the sister art, pictorial art is for him both rival and foil. This study throws light on the poetic system of a major writer, and adds an additional dimension to the study of the literary and aesthetic sensibilities of the mid-19th century.

Flaubert (1821-80) is a major writer, as popular in England as he is in France, and of an enduring fascination. This book examines his responses to pictorial art, from classical to popular, Eastern to Western, traditional to modern. Rival and foil, pictorial art emerges as one of the most powerful driving forces behind his own work.
