Gustave Flaubert was a 19th‑century French novelist, widely regarded as one of the founders of literary realism and the modern novel. His masterpiece, Madame Bovary (1857), established his reputation by delivering an unsparing analysis of bourgeois hypocrisy that combines psychological rigor with stylistic precision. Other major novels include Salammbô (1862) and Sentimental Education (1869), along with the short stories collected in Trois Contes (1877) and the posthumous fragment Bouvard et Pécuchet. Flaubert was noted for an obsessive concern with form and language; he revised his texts extensively and tested them by reading aloud until he achieved the desired sound. That aesthetic rigor, combined with an ironic and moralizing view of human nature, made him a central figure in French literature, a contemporary of Baudelaire and an influence on later naturalist writers. His career included a trip to the Orient that inspired Salammbô, a trial for immorality over Madame Bovary from which he was acquitted, and official recognition with the Légion d’honneur. Flaubert’s legacy lies in the lasting influence of his refined style, the psychological depth of his characters, and his role in establishing the novel as a space for social and moral analysis.
