We will examine what Auerbach called « le grand réalisme », reading three notable Nineteenth Century novels : Balzac’s Illusions perdues, Stendhal’s Lucien Leuwen, Flaubert’s L’Éducation sentimentale. We will consider how a new narrative art and a new art of prose brought new ways of understanding society, history, and human life.
