Abstract
Madame Bovary, written in 1856, is the debut novel of French writer Gustave Flaubert who is widely regarded as the greatest novelist in western literature. In this book, Flaubert described lots of individual characters and social facts, showing us not only the tragedy of Emma but also the tragedy of French society in the 19th century. Emma Bovary was born and raised in the countryside but she tried to pursue romantic passion and aristocratic life. Occasionally she met Charles Bovary and married him quickly. However, Emma realized that life after marriage was not the same as she had expected, and she quickly got disappointed and finally betrayed her marriage. Although it was happy with two lovers at first, she soon found she was tricked. Aimless pursuit for romantic love and noble life ultimately led to the imbalance of Madame Bovary’s identity and emotion.
This thesis will be written in three parts. It will firstly give an introduction of the book and the author, and also state the influence of the book. The second part will mainly describe the imbalance in this novel, including the despicable bourgeoisie, the imbalance of Emma’s identity and emotion. The last part will mainly analyze the reasons leading to the imbalance of Emma. In this part, personal causes and social facts will be discussed separately. By presenting the tragedy of Emma and analyzing the reasons, the author of this paper tends to explore the cruel reality of the society at that time and its impact on individuals.
Key words: Emma Bovary; imbalance; identity; emotion; tragedy
