Le soldat égaré dans le désert trouve refuge dans une grotte et réussit à apprivoiser une panthère dont il est en quelque sorte amoureux. Il l'appelle Mignonne, en mémoire d'une ancienne maîtresse à lui, et projette quantité de qualités féminines sur la bête dont il garde un souvenir ému

L'action se situe aux environs de février 1819. Auguste de Maulincour, jeune officier de cavalerie, se promenant dans un quartier mal famé de Paris, aperçoit au loin la jeune femme mariée dont il est secrètement amoureux, se contentant de l'adorer de loin. Il la voit disparaître dans une maison sordide comme toutes celles du quartier. Quel est le secret de cette femme, reconnue dans le grand monde parisien comme un modèle de vertu conjugale ? Retrouvant Clémence Desmarets le soir même chez Madame de Nucingen, il tente de lui arracher son secret. Mais la jeune femme prétend qu'elle n'est pas sortie de chez elle de la soirée. Auguste décide alors d'espionner la maison où il l'a vue entrer. Réussissant à y pénétrer, il découvre la jeune femme en compagnie d'un personnage inquiétant: Ferragus...

In these days, when everything is an intellectual competition, a man must be able to sit forty-eight hours on end in his chair before a table, as a General could remain for two days on horseback and in his saddle.

Gobseck began as a cabin boy and worked his way up while traveling around the world. He became rich and a miser. His philosophy of never helping anyone because "adversity is the greatest of all teachers" was well known. He also believed that all the peoples of the world were really very much alike because money was the greatest common denominator.

Melmoth arrive au moment où le caissier de Nucingen, Castanier, presque ruiné par sa maîtresse, Aquilina, s'apprête à détourner une grosse somme à des fins personnelles. Melmoth propose à Castanier de lui acheter son âme et il lui donne un second rendez-vous où il lui livrera un secret qui lui pèse: la puissance qu'il a obtenue en faisant un pacte avec le diable peut se transmettre pendant cent cinquante ans si quelqu'un autre reprend le pacte à son compte. Melmoth veut ainsi retrouver la paix de l'esprit et il se débarrasse de son fardeau sur Castanier, trop heureux dans un premier temps d'en user à loisir. Mais, bientôt lassé par les dons surnaturels dont il a hérité, le caissier cherche à son tour à se défaire du pacte satanique. Pour cela, il lui faut trouver un remplaçant qu'il cherche parmi les boursicoteurs. Le pacte passe ainsi en de nombreuses mains, perdant peu à peu de son pouvoir. Et tandis que Melmoth meurt, enfin réconcilié avec Dieu et avec lui-même, c'est un clerc de notaire qui hérite en dernier de ce fameux pacte.

Au début du XIVe siècle, le sergent Tirechair vit près de Notre-Dame de Paris dans une sombre maison. Il loge deux étrangers qui l'effrayent et qu'il croit capables de sorcellerie, alors qu'il s'agit de deux gentilshommes. Le plus âgé a fréquenté la cour du roi, le plus jeune, (Godefroy, comte de Gand) est fils de la comtesse Mahaut engagée comme servante chez les Tirechairs. Le sergent s'apprête à les mettre à la porte le soir-même où les deux hommes assistent à un cours de théologie mystique. On fait alors connaissance avec le docteur Sigier et sa théorie sur les mystères de la création. Le vieux gentilhomme, qui a été proscrit de son pays natal, l'Italie, n'est autre que le poète Dante Alighieri auquel un cavalier vient apprendre qu'il peut retourner à Florence, sa ville d'origine. Quant à Godefroy, qui s'apprêtait à se suicider pour rejoindre les anges, et que le poète sauve in extremis, il finit par retrouver sa mère et sa noble condition. Le docteur Sigier, auprès duquel se presse une foule d'étudiants en théologie, est en fait Siger de Brabant. Il y a un anachronisme d'une vingtaine d'années dans le récit de Balzac.

La soeur aînée de celle-ci, Marie-Angélique de Vandenesse, l'épouse de Félix de Vandenesse est avec sa soeur, et les deux femmes, très émues, viennent de se faire des confidences.

Al lector: al comienzo de su carrera literaria recibió el autor; de manos de un amigo muerto hacía tiempo, el tema de esta obra, que más tarde encontró en una antología a principios de este siglo; y, según sus conjeturas, se trata de una fantasía creada por Hoffmann de Berlín, publicada en algún almanaque alemán y olvidada por sus editores. La Comédie Humaine es lo suficientemente original para que el autor pueda confesar una copia inocente; como La Fontaine, ha tratado a su manera, y sin saberlo, un hecho ya contado. Esto no ha sido una broma como estaba de moda en 1830, época en la que todo autor escribía cosas atroces para complacer a las jovencitas.

The most amusing society, but also the most mixed, which Madame Felix de Vandenesse frequented, was that of the Comtesse de Montcornet, a charming little woman, who received illustrious artists, leading financial personages, distinguished writers; but only after subjecting them to so rigid an examination that the most exclusive aristocrat had nothing to fear in coming in contact with this second-class society.

Madame Vauquer, née de Conflans, est une vieille femme qui, depuis quarante ans, tient à Paris une pension bourgeoise établie rue Neuve-Sainte-Geneviève, entre le quartier latin et le faubourg Saint-Marceau. Cette pension, connue sous le nom de la Maison-Vauquer, admet également des hommes et des femmes, des jeunes gens et des vieillards, sans que jamais la médisance ait attaqué les moeurs de ce respectable établissement. Mais aussi depuis trente ans ne s'y était-il jamais vu de jeune personne, et pour qu'un jeune homme y demeure, sa famille doit-elle lui faire une bien maigre pension. Néanmoins, en 1819, époque à laquelle ce drame commence, il s'y trouvait une pauvre jeune fille. En quelque discrédit que soit tombé le mot drame par la manière abusive et tortionnaire dont il a été prodigué dans ces temps de douloureuse littérature, il est nécessaire de l'employer ici: non que cette histoire soit dramatique dans le sens vrai du mot; mais, l'oeuvre accomplie, peut-être aura-t-on versé quelques larmes intra muros et extra . Sera-t-elle comprise au-delà de Paris ? le doute est permis. Les particularités de cette scène pleine d'observations et de couleurs locales ne peuvent être appréciées qu'entre les buttes de Montmartre et les hauteurs de Montrouge, dans cette illustre vallée de plâtras incessamment près de tomber et de ruisseaux noirs de boue; vallée remplie de souffrances réelles, de joies souvent fausses, et si terriblement agitée qu'il faut je ne sais quoi d'exorbitant pour y produire une sensation de quelque durée. Cependant il s'y rencontre çà et là des douleurs que l'agglomération des vices et des vertus rend grandes et solennelles: à leur aspect, les égoïsmes, les intérêts, s'arrêtent et s'apitoient; mais l'impression qu'ils en reçoivent est comme un fruit savoureux promptement dévoré. Le char de la civilisation, semblable à celui de l'idole de Jaggernat, à peine retardé par un coeur moins facile à broyer que les autres et qui enraie sa roue, l'a brisé bientôt et continue sa marche glorieuse. Ainsi ferez-vous, vous qui tenez ce livre d'une main blanche, vous qui vous enfoncez dans un moelleux fauteuil en vous disant: Peut-être ceci va-t-il m'amuser.
