This paper deals with Pinard’s political and literary posterity which, after 1912, elaborated the figure of Flaubert’s censor as a canny reader, eventually perceived as a Modern for having emphasized the novel’s subversive force. In a demonstration of a less familiar side of censorship history, the paper will also look at the 1882 Duverdy affair, in which Zola was accused of defamation of character during the serial publication of Pot-Bouille.
