"La legende de Saint Julien l'Hospitalier" est avant tout un conte, conçu pour le plaisir d'être dit et entendu ; un récit dans lequel le héros parvient, à travers une série d'épreuves, à un but qui semblait inaccessible. Gustave Flaubert rédige cette "petite bêtise moyenâgeuse" en1875. Il y a, chez Flaubert, l'ambition de donner à son écriture le poids des choses : son texte doit rendre leur vérité. Pour l'atteindre, il recherche l'expression absolue, d'où sa réputation de besogneux : "Ce souci de la beauté extérieure que vous me reprochez est pour moi une méthode. Quand je découvre une mauvaise assonance ou une répétition dans une de mes phrases, je suis sûr que je patauge dans le faux. À force de chercher, je trouve l'expression juste, qui était la seule et qui est, en même temps, l'harmonieuse".

"Herodias" is a short story by Gustave Flaubert, one of the great masters of French literature. It is a reworking of the tale of Salomé and John the Baptist, in which faith and cruelty are blended in a deadly dance culminating in tragedy. A stylistic masterpiece, with orientalist sensuality and an inspired dive into religious fervor, this short story brings the ancient era to the most colorful possible life.

Cette nouvelle publiée en 1877 dans un recueil de trois contes entamés en 1844, peut être considérée comme une œuvre testamentaire à un double point de vue : dernière œuvre de fiction achevée par Flaubert, la question de la Foi est y omniprésente et transcende la simple humanité de ses personnages.

When Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm published their Children's and Household Tales in 1812, followed by a second volume in 1815, they had no idea that such stories as "Rapunzel", "Hansel and Gretel", and "Cinderella" would become the most celebrated in the world. Yet few people today are familiar with the majority of tales from the two early volumes, since in the next four decades the Grimms would publish six other editions, each extensively revised in content and style.

There is now no doubt that not only is Waiting for Godot the outstanding play of the 20th century, but it is also Samuel Beckett's masterpiece. Yet it is both a popular text to be studied at school and an enigma. The scene is a country road. There is a solitary tree. It is evening. Two tramp-like figures, Vladimir and Estragon, exchange words. Pull off boots. Munch a root vegetable. Two other curious characters enter. And a boy. Time passes. It is all strange yet familiar.

How can we look afresh at Shakespeare as a writer of sonnets? What new light might they shed on his career, personality, and sexuality? Shakespeare wrote sonnets for at least 30 years, not only for himself, for professional reasons, and for those he loved, but also in his plays, as prologues, as epilogues, and as part of their poetic texture.
