The son of a surgeon, he is said to have begun writing at a very early age and attended school at the Lycée Pierre Corneille in Rouen. He moved to Paris in 1840 to study law but left intermittently to travel and, after a period of ill health, departed for good in 1846. Thereafter he devoted himself to writing and completed \u003ci\u003eMadame Bovary\u003c\/i\u003e in 1856. The novel was published to great scandal and acclaim, and Flaubert became a celebrated literary figure.
