Written over a century and a half ago, Madame Bovary is still an extraordinarily fresh, exciting and shockingly frank novel, at once an acute psychological study of a woman drawn into adultery through circumstances we can partly understand, and a sharply-observed comedy that offers a fascinating glimpse of the social and cultural divisions running through French provincial society in the mid nineteenth century. This translation is by Eleanor Marx-Aveling, a prominent social activist and literary translator. She was the youngest daughter of Karl Marx. (Summary by Peter Dann)

Eschyle est le plus ancien des trois grands tragiques grecs. Treize fois vainqueur du concours tragique, il est l'auteur d'environ 110 pièces dont sept seulement nous ont été transmises. Le théâtre d'Eschyle est essentiellement remarqué pour sa force dramatique, la tension, l'angoisse qui habite ses pièces, dont la cohérence se comprend surtout par la progression qui les reliait au sein de trilogies "liées", dont ne subsiste aujourd'hui que l'Orestie.

Nous sommes au théâtre, nous dans la salle, lui sur scène. On vient de le primer pour l'ensemble de son œuvre. Il remercie son monde. Enfin, il essaie. Et Claude Piéplu prête son inimitable voix à cet exercice de gratitude où le rire le dispute à la fureur, et dont personne ne sort indemne, surtout pas le lauréat. La fureur, la tendresse, la fausse ingénuité, la rêverie, l'ironie, l'acidité : tout y est, parfois mêlés jusqu'à l'étrange.

Cette pièce analyse l'établissement du pouvoir impérial sur les nobles dans la Rome antique, mais il s'agit bien d'une transposition de la situation au siècle de Louis XIV : pour mettre fin à la spirale de violence, la réponse se trouve dans l'apologie d'un pouvoir fort, dont la magnanimité doit être l'un des attributs.

L'éducation des femmes. Voilà un sujet qui, dès la Renaissance, agite les cercles scientifiques et philosophiques. La femme... Etre inférieur par nature ou par manque d'instruction ? Questionnement dont le caractère tumultueux atteint son apogée à la fin du XVIIIème siècle. Toute l'éducation des femmes ne doit-elle qu'"être relative aux hommes. Leur plaire, leur être utiles, se faire aimer et honorer d'eux, les élever jeunes, les soigner grands, les conseiller, les consoler, leur rendre la vie agréable et douce", comme le dit Rousseau ?

Secular humanism has triumphed. Everything the late Victorians and Edwardians believed would bring human happiness has been achieved: Technology has made it so no one needs to work for a living, the social sciences ensure a smooth-running social order, and, in the name of tolerance, religious beliefs have been uprooted and eliminated except for a single holdout - a largely discredited and rapidly shrinking Catholic Church. Yet people are unhappy.
