EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures a pivotal moment in literary history as French politician, poet, and man of letters, Lon Laurent-Pichat (1823-1886), collaborates with Gustave Flaubert on the publication of his groundbreaking novel, Madame Bovary, in 1857. Born in Paris, Lon Laurent-Pichat was a prominent figure in French politics and literature during the Second Empire. A man of letters, he was known for his literary criticism and poetic works. However, it was his role in the publication of Madame Bovary that would secure his place in literary history. The manuscript of Madame Bovary, which Flaubert had labored over for years, was initially rejected by several publishers due to its controversial content. Recognizing the literary merit of the work, Lon Laurent-Pichat took it upon himself to help Flaubert prepare it for publication. He is seen here in this photograph, intently studying the manuscript, likely making revisions and editing out "a lot of useless things," as he described it, to make the novel more palatable to the publishing world. The first edition of Madame Bovary was published in 1857, and it was an instant success. The novel's frank portrayal of adultery and its critique of provincial life resonated with readers, and it remains a classic of modern literature today. Lon Laurent-Pichat's role in its publication was crucial, and this photograph offers a glimpse into the collaborative process between author and editor that brought this literary masterpiece to the world.
