Krátky popis
Nowhere do Flaubert's explorations of the relation of signs to the
objects they signify reach a more thorough study than in this work.
Bouvard and Pécuchet systematically confuse signs and symbols with
reality, an assumption that causes them much suffering, as it does
for Emma Bovary and Frédéric Moreau. Yet here, due to the explicit
focus on books and knowledge, Flaubert's ideas reach a climax.
Consequently, the book is widely read as a precursor to modern
theories on semiotics and postmodernism. The relentless failure of
Bouvard and Pécuchet to learn anything from their adventures raises
the question of what is knowable. Whenever they achieve some small
measure of success (a rare occurrence), it is the result of unknown
external forces beyond their comprehension. In this sense, they
strongly resemble Antony in The Temptation of St. Anthony, a work
which addresses similar epistemological themes as they relate to
classical literature. Lionel Trilling wrote that the novel
expresses a belief in the alienation of human thought from human
experience. The worldview that emerges from the work, one of human
beings proceeding relentlessly forward without comprehending the
results of their actions or the processes of the world around them,
does not seem an optimistic one. But given that Bouvard and
Pécuchet do gain some comprehension of humanity's ignorant state
(as demonstrated by their composition of the Dictionary of Received
Ideas), it could be argued that Flaubert allows for the possibility
of relative enlightenment.
