Petit précis de subjectivation : retour sur Un cœur simple

Abstract

Certain events distinguish themselves in particular for their psychological resonance. Such is the case for the disappearance of the children in the first Trois contes. This disappearance subjects the servant Félicité to the laws of transfer and the syndrome of equivalence. To show fully the confusions of a simple heart, such is, here as elsewhere, the challenge in the Flaubertian sense of distinction.
