On this day, December 12, in 1821, Gustave Flaubert was born in Rouen, France. Never married, he was an unapologetic sensualist with both men and women and suffered from STDs most of his life. Although he wrote numerous works and was a prolific letter writer, he is mainly remembered for his masterpiece, Madame Bovary. Published in 1856, it created a scandal in its “scrupulously truthful portraiture of life.” Flaubert was charged with immorality by the government upon its publication (his heroine has numerous affairs in an attempt to escape her empty life), but was acquitted. He died of a cerebral hemorrhage in 1880 at age 56.
