When the royal privilege of hunting was abolished in the wake of the French Revolution, a host of manuals and introductory primers soon emerged that instructed the bourgeois novices, eager to make sense of the arcane practices and gnostic terminology behind the hunt, in the rules of the pursuit. Evidence of the complexity of this culture abounds in the vast body of literature consulted by Flaubert for his Légende de saint Julien l’Hospitalier. Yet despite its new accessibility to the bourgeoisie, hunting continued to be firmly associated with aristocratic prestige. At the same time, it is precisely the raw yet controlled desire that underwrites the pack of dogs’ chase of deer or boar that emblematically captures the nature of bourgeois aspiration. In this article, I show how hunting provided, both literally and metaphorically, a pattern for the narration of bourgeois ambition in urban settings, which is demonstrated with a view to Zola’s novels La Curée and Son Excellence Eugène Rougon.
