Arthur Symons in his seminal work The Symbolist Movement in Literature (1899) introduced and analysed French Symbolist authors. In this essay he discusses the style and importance of Gustave Flaubert.
Flaubert was born in Rouen in the Seine Maritime department of Upper Normandy, in northern France. It is believed that he began writing at a very early age – as early as eight – according to sources.
The correspondence of George Sand and Gustave Flaubert, if approached merely as a chapter in the biographies of these heroes of nineteenth century letters, is sufficiently rewarding. In a relationship extending over twelve years, including the trying period of the Franco-Prussian War and the Commune, these extraordinary personalities disclose the aspects of their diverse natures which are best worth the remembrance of posterity.
