Nicholas White's analysis of novels by Zola, Maupassant, Hennique, Bourget and Armand Charpentier is fashioned by perspectives on a wide cultural field, including legal, popular and academic discourses on the family and its discontents. His account encourages a close rereading of canonical as well as overlooked texts from fin de sie?cle France. What emerges between the death of Flaubert in 1880 and the publication of Bourget's Un divorce in 1904 is a series of Naturalist and post-Naturalist representations of transgressive behaviour in which tales of adultery, illegitimacy, consanguinity, incest and divorce serve to exemplify and to offer a range of nuances on the Third Republic's crisis in what might now be termed 'family values'. 410 0$aCambridge studies in French ;$v57. 606 $aFrench fiction$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aFamilies in literature 606 $aAdultery in literature 615 0$aFrench fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aFamilies in literature. 615 0$aAdultery in literature. 676 $a843/.809355 700 $aWhite$b Nicholas$f1967-$01693028 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910813072503321 996 $aThe family in crisis in late nineteenth-century French fiction$94070551 997 $aUNINA
