In 1824, at the last opera ball of the season, several masks were struck by the beauty of a youth who was wandering about the passages and greenroom with the air of a man in search of a woman kept at home by unexpected circumstances. The secret of this behavior, now dilatory and again hurried, is known only to old women and to certain experienced loungers. In this immense assembly the crowd does not trouble itself much to watch the crowd; each one's interest is impassioned, and even idlers are preoccupied.

Comme toujours, Balzac ne s'appuie sur aucun fait divers réel, mais sur ce qui aurait pu exister, car les Sanson, bourreaux de père en fils, étaient très pieux.

1835. Written by a Rosicrucian adept, this fantastic tale is a masterful work of occult teachings. Not written for the masses, Seraphita was for those few lofty spirits who could discern Jacobs mystical stair.

The greasy furniture is handed down to successive owners with such scrupulous care, that in some offices may still be seen boxes of remainders, machines for twisting parchment gut, and bags left by the prosecuting parties of the Chatelet (abbreviated to Chlet)--a Court which, under the old order of things, represented the present Court of First Instance (or County Court).

The Atheists Mass By Honore De Balzac Translated by Clara Bell Honore de Balzac, 20 May 1799 - 18 August 1850, was a French novelist and playwright. His magnum opus was a sequence of short stories and novels collectively entitled La Comedie humaine, which presents a panorama of French life in the years after the 1815 fall of Napoleon Bonaparte. Due to his keen observation of detail and unfiltered representation of society, Balzac is regarded as one of the founders of realism in European literature. He is renowned for his multifaceted characters, who are morally ambiguous. His writing influenced many subsequent novelists such as Marcel Proust, Emile Zola, Charles Dickens, Edgar Allan Poe, ECa de Queiros, Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Gustave Flaubert, Benito Perez Galdos, Marie Corelli, Henry James, William Faulkner, Jack Kerouac, and Italo Calvino, and philosophers such as Friedrich Engels and Karl Marx. Many of Balzac's works have been made into or have inspired films, and they are a continuing source of inspiration for writers, filmmakers and critics.

La Fausse Maîtresse est un plaidoyer sur la nécessité d'une fausse aventure (celles, nombreuses, que l'auteur avait) pour cacher au monde son véritable amour (la Comtesse). Madame Firmiani donne à voir un tableau de la futilité d'une société parisienne prompte à calomnier, en exacte symétrie au roman le Colonel Chabert.

La Vieille Fille est un court roman d'Honoré de Balzac écrit en 1836. L'oeuvre est dédiée au beau-frère de Balzac, ingénieur du corps royal des Ponts et Chaussées, Eugène Midy de la Greneraye Surville. Cependant, Balzac a offert le manuscrit de ce roman à la comtesse Guidoboni-Visconti1, en 1844. En 1816, à Alençon, la grasse et naïve Rose Cormon, quarante ans, attend toujours le mari digne de son rang. Issue de la bonne bourgeoisie, elle est parmi les plus riches personnes de la ville. La description minutieuse de sa maison et de la vie qu'elle y mène sont typiques de la manière balzacienne.

The longest, without exception, of Balzac's books, and one which contains hardly any passage that is not very nearly of his best, Illusions Perdues suffers, I think, a little in point of composition from the mixture of the Angouleme scenes of its first and third parts with the purely Parisian interest of Un Grand Homme de Province. It is hardly possible to exaggerate the gain in distinctness and lucidity of arrangement derived from putting Les Deux Poetes and Eve et David (a much better title than that which has been preferred in the Edition Definitive) together in one volume, and reserving the greatness and decadence of Lucien de Rubempre for another.

He falls in love with a beautiful young woman named Eugenie, who is the daughter of a neighboring aristocratic family.However, Felix is determined to prevent Charles and Eugenie from marrying, as he sees the aristocracy as a threat to his own wealth and status.
