The Works of Guy De Maupassant by Guy de Maupassant Pdf

Henri Rene Albert Guy de Maupassant (1850-1893) was a popular 19th-century French writer. He is one of the fathers of the modern short story. As a protege of Flaubert, his short stories are characterized by their economy of style and their efficient effortless denouement. In 1880 he published his first masterpiece, Boule de Suif, which Flaubert characterized as "a masterpiece that will endure. " This was Maupassant's first piece of short fiction and was followed by short stories such as Deux Amis (1882) and Mademoiselle Fifi (1882). He also wrote six short novels. A number of his stories often denote the futility of war and the innocent civilians who, caught, emerge changed - many are set during the Franco-Prussian War of the 1870s. In his novels, he concentrated all his observations scattered in his short stories. His second novel was Bel- Ami; or, The History of a Scoundrel, which came out in 1885. His other works include: La Maison Tellier (1881), Une Vie (1883), Miss Harriet (1884), Mont-Oriol (1887), Pierre et Jean (1888), Fort Comme la Mort (1889) and Notre Coeur (1890).

Monsieur Parent by Guy de Maupassant Pdf

This early work by Guy de Maupassant was originally published in the 1880's. Guy de Maupassant was born in 1850 at the Château de Miromesnil, near Dieppe, France. He came from a prosperous family, but when Maupassant was eleven, his mother risked social disgrace by trying to secure a legal separation from her husband. After the split, Maupassant lived with his mother till he was thirteen, and inherited her love of classical literature. In 1880, Maupassant published his first - and, according to many, his best - short story, entitled 'Boule de Suif' ('Ball of Fat'). It was an instant success. He went on to be extremely prolific during the 1880s, working methodically to produce up to four volumes of short fiction every year. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions.

Mister Parent by Guy de Maupassant Pdf

In the theatre, the flouted husband is a comic character. In reality, he often has the pathetic quality of Mr. Parent whose life is a hell suffered with patience for the love of a child that the betrayed wife finally unmasked takes away claiming that it is not his. Twenty years and a coincidence will be necessary for this sweet man to discover how to get revenge.Placed in an identical situation, the hero of the Field of Olives has been able to rebuild his existence, just as he will be able to escape the demon that emerged from his past, the pale "maoufatan" who is his son, by an astonishing gesture in a priest.Father Vilbois has what Henri Parent lacks, that courage that we sometimes think we have and that suddenly fails when it comes to the test, but then how many would dare to imitate a coward like the beautiful Signoles?It is still from courage, and obstinacy, that the adventure of the Wolf Hunters was born. Not all spirits have as much strength, as the episode of Mademoiselle Cocotte proves. It only takes a little to upset the human brain (The Hair) or at least to worry it and bring it to the funny ends of Sick People and Doctors.And so vast is the range of human feelings that it ranges from the nostalgia of Par un soir de printemps to the jovial irony of the lesson of things learned in a wagon, the last of the nine short stories in this volume.
