	Goncourt, Edmond de
		Edmond de Goncourt and his brother, Jules (q.v.), were born into minor aristocracy.
		Illustrated by Jules, the book was responsible for the revival (albeit Romantic) of the appreciation of the rococo as well as the working methods of French 18th-century artists from Watteau to Charles-Nicolas Cochin.
		A major theme of the Goncourts was that of artistic technique, which they often referred to as 'cuisine." The two most important and continually referred to are colour and the fragment.

		Des éventails ont, contre les poitrines, un battement pâmé, une palpitation mourante, comme l'aile d'un oiseau blessé; d'autres glissent d'une main amollie dans le creux d'une jupe; et d'autres rebroussent, avec leurs branches d'ivoire, un vague sourire heureux sur de toutes petites dents blanches.
		De loin nous entendions une piaillerie: les gamins du village d'à côté, les petits rabatteurs, qui poussaient, en se jouant, des cris de sortie d'école, dans les arbres.
		De ma cabine je regarde bêtement par l'œil rond, par le hublot du bateau, l'échevèlement éternel des vagues, où dedans parfois, un petit bateau s'encadrant dans cette grosse lentille, semble une marine peinte sur un galet de cristal.

	Goncourt Prize
		The Prix Goncourt was established by Edmond Louis Antoine de Goncourt (1822-96).
		Edmond bequeathed his entire estate for the foundation and maintenance of the Académie Goncourt, the association which awards the Goncourt Prize, in honor of his brother, Jules Alfred Huot de Goncourt (1830-70).
		Similarly, the outstanding characteristic of the novels written by the Goncourts is a painstaking presentation of the details of physical reality, with the aim of explaining the emotional lives of the characters in terms of their reactions to reality.

	APTER: UNMASKING THE MASQUERADE: FETISISM AND FEMININTY FROM THE GONCOURT BROTHERS TO JOAN RIVIERE
		In the Goncourt brothers' La Femme au dix-huitieme siecle and in the fashion writing of Octave Uzanne, literary portraits of eighteenth-century libertinage and sartorial pomp are often used to praise and at the same time to pathologize (implicitly) a high culture of flirtation, seduction, and masquerade.
		Jules and Edmond de Goncourt were far more notorious for their virulently misogynistic view of the female species, which they placed on a par with the animal order in the evolutionary chain, than for any sympathetic investigation of womanliness.
		Instead of signifying a timeless, essential femininity, which may have been what the Goncourts wished to evoke, the exaggerated coiffures of the eighteenth-century French noblewoman disclosed the historically commodifying conditions of her erotic construction, one that was, of course, essentially nineteenth century in its character and function.

		Edmond and his younger brother Jules were left sufficient funds by their widowed mother, who died in 1848, to ensure them a modest income.
		Their monumental 'Journal des Goncourt' documented Parisian society for four decades, although because Jules died in 1870 (probably from syphilis) Edmond was the only author for more than half of the diary period.

		Few writers recorded their experiences—though Edmond de Goncourt recorded his brother Jules’ suffering in his Journal.
		After Jules died, Edmond made a new best friend and surrogate brother in Alphonse Daudet—only to watch him go through the same terrible, inexorable suffering that he had witnessed already.
		Further, Daudet kept asking Goncourt about what Jules was going through at a similar stage, and measuring his progress—or regress—against that of his friend’s dead brother.
