“This book is more than a mere dictionary of received ideas it is the reflex of the society we all belong to”
This book was conceived for a modern re-edition of “The Dictionary of received Ideas” (from the original Dictionnaire des Idées Reçues). It is a satirical, made up by notes of Gustave Flaubert during the 1870. It gathers, as an enciclopaedia/ dictionary, ordinary thoughts and stereotyped ideas of the freench society at the time. The conception of this work started with a reflection on the society and those deeply-rooted thoughts. Despite the fact that we may or may not agree with what is expressed, the truth is we are all part of the same society. The sentence “This book is more than a mere dictionary of pre-conceived ideas it is the reflex of the society we all belong to” help me create the re-edition and it also explains its concept.
