Madame Bovary《包法利夫人》是法国十九世纪现实主义文学大师福楼拜的成名作和代表作；这是一部被指控为“伤风败俗，亵渎宗教”的小说，也是一部让作者福楼拜从此奠定了自己的文学声誉和在文学史上的地位的小说。这部小说描写了一个女人为了爱情与债务而走向堕落，福楼拜以貌似冷漠的态度，非常“客观”地揭示了酿成这一悲剧的前因后果，陈述了社会所不能推卸的责任。作者用简洁而细腻的笔触描写了主人公情感堕落的过程，并剖析造成这种悲剧的社会根源。
Gustave Flaubert is arguably one of the greatest novelists of all time. His first novel, “Madame Bovary,” was published in 1856 and is considered a literary masterpiece by critics and scholars. This chic and inexpensive edition comes with a heat-burnished cover, foil stamping, luxurious endpapers, and a smaller trim size that’s easy to hold. “Madame Bovary” is a terrific example of Gustave Flaubert’s determination and his execution of capturing the details of modern realism.

We were in class when the headmaster came in, followed by a “new fellow,” not wearing the school uniform, and a school servant carrying a large desk. Those who had been asleep woke up, and every one rose as if just surprised at his work.
The head-master made a sign to us to sit down. Then, turning to the class-master, he said to him in a low voice—
“Monsieur Roger, here is a pupil whom I recommend to your care; he’ll be in the second. If his work and conduct are satisfactory, he will go into one of the upper classes, as becomes his age.”
The “new fellow,” standing in the corner behind the door so that he could hardly be seen, was a country lad of about fifteen, and taller than any of us. His hair was cut square on his forehead like a village chorister’s; he looked reliable, but very ill at ease. Although he was not broad-shouldered, his short school jacket of green cloth with black buttons must have been tight about the arm-holes, and showed at the opening of the cuffs red wrists accustomed to being bare. His legs, in blue stockings, 4 of 570 Madame Bovary looked out from beneath yellow trousers, drawn tight by braces, He wore stout, ill-cleaned, hob-nailed boots.
