Sinopse
Características

Maupassant is considered a father of the modern short story. Literary theorist Kornelije Kvas wrote that along with Chekhov, Maupassant is the greatest master of the short story in world literature. He is not a naturalist like Zola; to him, physiological processes do not constitute the basis of human actions, although the influence of the environment is manifested in his prose. In many respects, Maupassants naturalism is Schopenhauerian anthropological pessimism, as he is often harsh and merciless when it comes to depicting human nature. He owes most to Flaubert, from whom he learned to use a concise and measured style and to establish a distance towards the object of narration. He delighted in clever plotting, and served as a model for Somerset Maugham and O. Henry in this respect. One of his famous short stories, The Necklace, was imitated with a twist by both Maugham (Mr Know-All, A String of Beads) and Henry James (Paste).iBoo Worlds Classics iBoo Press House uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work.
