The aim of the article isto interpret these spatialisations in the context of the thematic order of chapters in the discussed work and selected elements of the presented world, as well as to evaluate the diagnoses made by Flaubert in relation to systematic knowledge and the very idea of encyclopedism in the period of modernity.
