But be had no chance to complain for Gentil and Albertine were both in the room serving dinner. The dinner, too, was far from being the abundant, generous meal of the provinces; the dishes, skimped by careful measurement, came from a neigh boring restaurant and were ill-served and meanly por tioned. Paris is not liberal in the little things of life to which persons of moderate means are condemned. Ln cien awaited the end of the dinner to question Louise, in whom be perceived a change that was to him inex plicable. He was not mistaken.

Excerpt from The Works of Honore De Balzac, Vol. 8: Eugenie Grandet, Great Man of the Provinces in Paris Next to a tottering house with roughly plastered walls, where an artisan enshrines his tool's, rises the mansion of a country gentleman, on the stone arch of which above the door vestiges of armorial bearings may still be seen, battered by the many revolutions that have shaken France since 1789. In this hilly street the ground-floors of the merchants are neither shops nor warehouses; lovers of the Middle Ages will here find the ouvrouere of our forefathers in all its naive simplicity. These low rooms, which have no shop-frontage, no show-windows, in fact no glass at all, are deep and dark and without interior or exte rior decoration. Their doors Open in two parts, each roughly iron-bound; the upper half is fastened back within the room, the lower half, fitted with a spring bell, swings continually to and fro. Air and light reach the damp den within, either through the upper half of the door, or through an open space between the ceiling and a low front wall, breast-high, which is closed by solid shutters that are taken down every morning, put up every evening, and held in place by heavy iron bars.

Excerpt from Lost Illusions, Vol. 1: The Two Poets; A Provincial Great Man in Paris; The Trials of an Inventor You who, by virtue of the privilege accorded the Raphaels and the Pitts, were a great poet at the age when men are usually so puny, have, like Chateau briand, like all men of genuine talent, been com pelled to combat the envious, ambuscaded behind the pillars or crouching in the subterranean caverns of the newspaper. Therefore do I desire that your victorious name should participate in the victory of this work, which I dedicate to you, and which, in the view of some people, is a manifestation of cour age as well as a narrative faithful to the truth. Did not journalists, like marquises, financiers, doctors and lawyers, belong to Moliere and his stage? Why then should the comedie humaine, which castigat ridendo mores, omit a single power, when the Parisian press omits none?

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Lost Illusions, And, a Distinguished Provincial at Paris Idyllic charm of this marriage for love, combined as it is with exhibitions of the author's power in more than one of the ways in which he loved best to Show it, has never escaped attention from Balzac's most competent critics. He himself had speculated in print and paper before David Séchard was conceived he himself had for all maniacs, all men of one idea, the fraternal enthusiasm of a fellow-victim. He could never touch a miser without a sort of shudder of interest; and that singular fancy of his for describing complicated legal and commercial undertakings came in too. Nor did he spare, in this wide-ranging book, to bring in other favorite matters of his, the hobereau - or squireen - aristocracy, the tittle-tattle of the country town, and so forth.

Excerpt from Paris and Her People Under the Third Republic I do not claim for it any higher status than that of a memoire pour servir, which may, in some degree, prepare the ground for future writers on Parisian history. Many names, many titles, will be found in the course of the ensuing pages. The classified lists which are given in my index testify to the prodigious activity of Paris in, for instance, such spheres as literature and the stage. Yet they are by no means exhaustive. Many more authors, actors, actresses, painters, scientists, operas, plays, books, etc., have been reserved by me for the other volume which I wish to write and there are doubtless some names and titles which I might even have included in the present volume had I found space for them. If any notable omissions, due to forget fulness, are pointed out to me by my critics, I will do my best to remedy them hereafter. I may add that considerations of space have often prevented me from giving more than a name or a title, but when ever opportunity has allowed it I have endeavoured to add a few words of appreciation or criticism. I think, however, that even the mere nomenclature which will be found in my pages may prove of some little utility. Whilst I dissent strongly from the View that Paris Is to be judged chiefly by what one may call the more frivolous sides of its life, I readily agree that these must not be ignored. I have glanced at them now and again in the present volume notably in regard to the brasseries and the Mont martre caboulots, including the notorious Chat Noir, but these latter places were from the outset chiefly patronized by the cosmopolitan element in the popu lation of Paris or else by young students from the French provinces, and, curiously enough, quite a number of them were really' run' 'by Germans, who passed themselves off as being of Alsatian origin. A few, of a genuine French character, have Survived the war. Others disappeared soon after its advent. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Journeys Through France: Being Impressions of the Provinces Over all there is a distinct sense of comfort, not unlike what one feels in Flanders and in England. Nowhere is one reminded of the petty respectability of the midland towns, with their fussing and over reaching activity. Before I left Paris I had witnessed the illuminations of August I 5, the crowds in the squares and dusty streets, the white walls, the eager and contorted faces, the sight-sects, domestic servants and working men, gathered together for their draught of miscalled pleasure, which cheated them like a cup of adulterated cocoa. I had absorbed the all-pervading odour, the dust and steam of life, the inferno of feverish hurry, the plague of unsatisfied cupidity. But here I found less heat; and on the following day there was rain. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

"A Distinguished Provincial at Paris" is a novel written by Honoré de Balzac and translated by Ellen Marriage. It is part two of a trilogy and tells the story of a young man from the provinces named Lucien de Rubempré who travels to Paris to pursue his dreams of becoming a famous author.

With its vivid portrayal of 19th-century Paris and its complex characters, the novel is a captivating tale of ambition and morality.
