Portraits de Flaubert et de Maupassant en photophobes
View through CrossRef
Cameraphobia (to be understood as the refusal of one 's own photographic portrait) was transmitted, with variants, from Flaubert to Maupassant. We try to understand the genesis of such a stance in Flaubert (when he goes to Orient with Du Camp the photographer-traveller) and to show how it is related, on the one hand, to aesthetic principles such as noncommitment of the author and idealization, and on the other hand to the paternity crisis which concerns the relationship between Master and Disciple.
