Emotional capitalism : Madame Bovary and Madame B

Fiction as sociological invention : a ^19th-century novel and a ^21st-century film hold a conversation in which authorial intent and chronology are suspended. More relevant is the socio-ideological aspect that Flaubert invented or predicted, and which continues to reign. The lecture consists of a short talk, a screening of the film (96''), and a discussion led by Eva Illouz, all in a row. French subtitles.
