Flaubert, Gustave, 1821-1880

"Over Strand and Field"



FOOTNOTES:
[Footnote 1: Gustave Flaubert was twenty-six years old when he started
on this journey. He travelled on foot and was accompanied by M. Maxime
Ducamp. When they returned, they wrote an account of their journey. It
is by far the most important of the unpublished writings, for in it the
author gives his personal genius full sway and it abounds in picturesque
descriptions and historical reflections.]
[Footnote 2: Founder of the abbey of Fontevrault, in 1099.]
[Footnote 3: He strangled his mistress whose mutilated body was found
floating in a sack on a pond. (See _Causes Celebres_.)]
[Footnote 4: A contraction of Poulbeuzanneval, the swamp where the beast
was drowned.]
[Footnote 5: Josselin Frotet, sieur de La Lanbelle, at whose place the
rebels congregated before the escalade. (Note on the manuscript of
G.F.)]
[Footnote 6: D'Argentre, _Hist. de Bretagne_. p. 62.]
