| Third dictation on Flaubert’s Mme Bovary. He began working on it in 1850, after returning from Egypt. It took him five years to write. The government first brought an action against the publisher and against the author on the charge of immorality, but both were acquitted. Just click below to listen to the dictation in French, and try to type what you hear. Good luck ! |

 Wednesday’s lesson: Dictation |
|
|
| This week, we are back on another part of Mme Bovary’s dictation. The publication of Madame Bovary in 1857 was followed by more scandal than admiration; at first, it was not easy to understand that this novel was the symbol of something new: the scrupulously truthful portraiture of society and life. Just click below to listen to the dictation in French, and try to type what you hear. Good luck ! |
