| description | The Éducation sentimentale has led to conflicting interpretations, not only in the 20th Century, between the old psychological and idealistic criticism and textual criticism limited to strict literalness, but also when the novel was published. Some, but very few, were sensible to the subtle and bitter irony that strips desire and reveals its essential inactivity, while others, the majority, stigmatized its widely spread covetousness. The clash of these interpretations reveals the deep ambiguity of a desire that the novel chooses never to pin down. A study of the pleading is interesting in so far as it is where this indecision is activated. On this boundary the amorous desire is shown to be strangely disturbing compared with what it was before. This desire which the novel has previously arranged according to two antagonistic directions, love and Platonism, exacerbates and dissolves each of its parts, to produce a representation of desire, not as satisfaction or dissatisfaction, but as an energy and a shaping tension that finds its resolution. After all “so what” since something has happened in extremis. |
