Maupassant, a prominent figure in 19th-century French literature, is celebrated for his masterful short stories that reflect the Naturalist school. His writing, influenced by Gustave Flaubert, is marked by concise style and impactful resolutions. Many of his narratives, particularly those set during the Franco-Prussian War, explore the tragic consequences of conflict on innocent civilians. With a prolific output including 300 short stories and notable works like "Boule de Suif," he profoundly captures the human experience amid turmoil.
