Synopsis

Sentimental Education: The Story of a Young Man is a novel written by Gustave Flaubert and published in 1869. The story follows the life of Frederic Moreau, a young man from a bourgeois family who falls in love with an older woman named Madame Arnoux. As he pursues her, he becomes involved in various social and political events of mid-19th century France, including the 1848 revolution and the rise of Napoleon III.Throughout the novel, Frederic is portrayed as a naive and idealistic young man who is constantly searching for meaning and purpose in his life. He is torn between his desire for Madame Arnoux and his growing fascination with other women, including a married woman named Rosanette and a courtesan named La Paiva.As the story progresses, Frederic becomes disillusioned with his own life and the society around him. He begins to question his own values and beliefs, and ultimately realizes that his romantic ideals are not enough to sustain him in the harsh realities of the world.Sentimental Education is widely regarded as one of Flaubert's greatest works and a masterpiece of French literature. It is a complex and nuanced portrayal of a young man's coming-of-age story, set against the backdrop of a rapidly changing society. The novel explores themes of love, ambition, disillusionment, and the search for meaning in life, and is a must-read for anyone interested in 19th century French literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
