| Research Abstract |
This study attempted to decipher the works of Gustave Flaubert who had been one of the most representative French novelists in nineteenth century, specifically focused on Bouvard et Pecuchet, in connection with the discourse of knowledge in the same period, with the keyword of "corporalite". This study revealed how a piece of literary work had been refined to an autonomous one absorbing heterogeneous discourses, by comparing empirically Flaubert's texts including his manuscripts with knowledge regarding physical matters in the same period such as medical science, pedagogy, philosophy, etc.
