Abstract
The article's main thrust is to demonstrate how Flaubert's Madame Bovary is an outstanding illustration of how anthropological issues can readily lend themselves to artistic use. Setting out from a brief discussion of proxemics according to the anthropologist Edward T. Hall, the paper explores Emma's proxemic behaviour toward her environment and those she comes in contact with, in order to demonstrate that this behaviour in a form of psychological terror, leads the protagonist to her death.
