Introduction: fin de siecle, fin de famille? -- Pt. 1. The Promiscuous Narrative of 'Pot-Bouille' -- 1. Demon lover or erotic atheist? -- 2. The rhythms of performance -- Pt. 2. Pleasures and Fears of Paternity: Maupassant and Zola -- 3. Bel-Ami: fantasies of seduction and colonization -- 4. Incest in Les Rougon-Macquart -- Pt. 3. The Blindness of Passions: Huysmans, Hennique and Zola -- 5. The conquest of privacy in A Rebours -- 6. Painting, politics and architecture -- Coda: Bourget's Un divorce and the 'honnete femme'.

The Family in Crisis in Late Nineteenth-Century French Fiction, first published in 1999, focuses on a key moment in the construction of the modern view of the family in France. Nicholas White's analysis of novels by Zola, Maupassant, Hennique, Bourget and Armand Charpentier is fashioned by perspectives on a wide cultural field, including legal, popular and academic discourses on the family and its discontents. His account encourages a close rereading of canonical as well as overlooked texts from fin de siècle France. What emerges between the death of Flaubert in 1880 and the publication of Bourget's Un divorce in 1904 is a series of Naturalist and post-Naturalist representations of transgressive behaviour in which tales of adultery, illegitimacy, consanguinity, incest and divorce serve to exemplify and to offer a range of nuances on the Third Republic's crisis in what might now be termed 'family values'.
