Flaubert formed a close friendship with the young philosopher Poitvin very early on. Poitevin's pessimistic thoughts and aesthetic views had a considerable influence on Flaubert. Flaubert's thoughts are also obviously influenced by Spinoza's atheism. When he was in middle school, he read romantic works enthusiastically and engaged in literary study. These works express "demonic egoism" and anarchic fanaticism, with a strong romantic flavor. In his later years, in addition to carefully guiding Maupassant's writing, Flaubert has been writing his last novel "Bovard and Pécuchet", which is only one chapter short of completion. This novel can be said to be the companion volume of "Emotional Education" and can be called "Intellectual Education".

The book "Walden" records in detail the writer's daily life and thoughts for two years. He cultivated land next to his cabin, planted in spring and harvested in autumn, and was self-sufficient. He is a son of nature. He admires nature, makes friends with nature, talks with lakes, forests and birds, observes animals and plants in the forest, plays the flute on the boat, fishes by the lake, and writes down his observations and thoughts in the cabin at night. He pursued spiritual life and paid attention to the growth of the soul. He proudly declared: "Everyone is the king of his own kingdom. Compared with this kingdom, the Tsarist Empire is just a humble country, like a small snowball in the ice and snow." Thoreau tells us with his practical actions: Most of the luxuries people pursue, most of the so-called comfort of life, are not only unnecessary, but also a great hindrance to human progress.

This book marks a new peak for Gorky in exploring positive characters. Since the 1890s, Gorky has been actively exploring the creation of positive characters in his creations. Since the beginning of the 20th century, the booming workers' movement has greatly inspired his creative passion. The 1905 revolution had a decisive impact on Gorky's political thought and literary and artistic creation. He stood at the height of proletarian thought, boldly innovated, and finally created the typical image of Pavel, a plump proletarian hero, and brought the worker and peasant heroes into the field of literature. This book shows Gorky's high artistic talent in portraying proletarian heroes. In this book, Gorky used the creative method of socialist realism for the first time, that is, to describe reality truly, historically and concretely from the actual revolutionary development. This book is the first new literary work written using this creative method. This book creates a new era of proletarian literature with its true description of the new revolutionary reality, its profound summary of the nature of the times, its heroic figures with high ideological and artistic qualities, and its new creative methods.
