Paul Bourget

    Paul Bourget war ein französischer Romanautor und Essayist, der sich vom Naturalismus abwandte und den experimentellen analytischen Roman vorantrieb. Seine frühen Werke, reich an feinen Studien von Sitten und Charakteren, fanden Anklang beim Pariser Salonpublikum auf der Suche nach einem Traum von Modernität. Später wandte sich Bourget dem „Ideenroman“ zu, in dem er die psychologischen und moralischen Ursachen individueller und gesellschaftlicher Probleme untersuchte. Sein Werk, beeinflusst von seiner Konversion zum Katholizismus, versuchte, Glauben und Wissenschaft zu synthetisieren und thematisierte die sozialen, politischen und religiösen Fragen seiner Zeit.

      Tři malé dívky
    • Mladý středoškolský profesor odchází na krátký čas z malého města do Paříže, kde má na přání otce navštívit svého děda a vypátrat důvody jeho žádosti o peněžní půjčku. Přitom odhalí nejen vztah dědův k Pavle - mladé dívce vynikajících schopností, zaměstnané v nemocničnílaboratoři, která je jeho nelegitimní dcerou, ale stane se i bezděčným svědkem duševní krize nadaného spisovatele, potácejícího se mezi čistou láskou k Pavle a smyslným vztahem k vdané ženě. V laborantce Pavle, která není vlastní hrdinkou románu, vytvořil autor typ moderní generace žen, které vstupovaly do nejrůznějších zaměstnání přes všechny předsudky maloměšťácké společnosti, milovaly svou práci a stávaly se nezávislými na svém okolí.
