Flaubert, in what is perhaps his best known novel, "Madame Bovary" studies the problems arising in the second half of the nineteenth century from this mingling of classes. His conclusion is that the effects of too rapid culture on the middle class French woman are pernicious. In this M. Le Roux agrees with him; for, with an ancient race, every-day education must always precede instruction in less tangible matters.
