"Gambara" by Honore de Balzac is a compelling novella that delves into the psyche of the eponymous protagonist, the proficient however tragic Italian composer Paolo Gambara. Set in the vibrant creative and cultural milieu of nineteenth-century Paris, the narrative explores the thin line among genius and insanity. Gambara, once a celebrated composer, is now residing in obscurity and poverty. His existence takes a dramatic turn when he becomes infatuated with a beautiful singer, Marianna, and pours all his innovative power into composing an opera in her honor. However, Gambara's grand creative aims are marred with the aid of his deteriorating mental kingdom. As the novella unfolds, Balzac skillfully weaves a narrative that intertwines the nation-states of song, love, and insanity. The character of Gambara will become a symbol of the tortured artist, grappling with the complexities of notion and the harsh realities of existence. The tale is a poignant exploration of the adverse electricity of unrequited love and the exceptional line among innovative brilliance and the descent into madness. "Gambara" stands as a testament to Balzac's capability to dissect the human situation and the tumultuous intersection of artistic passion and personal tragedy.

When Milanese nobleman Count Andrea Marcosini sees Marianna in the crowd at the Palais-Royal in Paris, he immediately decides that she will be his. After all, this wealthy man with a wandering eye is used to getting what he wants. However, she is married to a composer called "Gambara", whose music reaches heights of beauty - but only when he is drunk. The count gives them money, then gives him a drink, and then, finally, steals Marianna from him. It is a tale of lust, greed and arrogance - with one significant twist. 'Gambara' will delight fans of Balzac's body of work. Honoré de Balzac (1799-1850) was a French novelist and playwright, most famous for a sequence of novels, collectively called 'The Human Comedy'. His signature style was a warts-and-all representation of post-Napoleonic French life, rich in detail and featuring complex, unfiltered characters. The style means Balzac is regarded as one of the pioneers of European literary realism. He is named as an influence on writers including Emile Zola, Henry James, Charles Dickens, and Gustave Flaubert. The first novel he published under his own name was 'Les Chouans' in 1829. In 1834 he hit upon the idea of grouping his novels together to record all of society. The result, over a period of years, was 'The Human Comedy', which comprised three categories: 'Analytic Studies'; 'Philosophical Studies'; and 'Studies of Manners'.

But the hour was not unpropitious for the indulgence of some discreditable whim. Earlier, he might have been detected; later, he might find himself cut out. Tempted by a glance which is encouraging without being inviting, to have followed a young and pretty woman for an hour, or perhaps for a day, thinking of her as a divinity and excusing her light conduct by a thousand reasons to her advantage.

Excerpt from Gambara; Massimilla Doni; The Accursed Child After a walk through the gallery, the young man looked alternately at the sky and at his watch, and, with a gesture of impatience, entered a smoking apartment, lighted a cigar, and, taking his position before a mirror, glanced at his costume, whose rich ness exceeded rather what is permitted in France by the laws of good taste. He rearranged his collar and black velvet vest, which was traversed, in sev eral directions, by one of those massive gold chains which are manufactured at Genoa; then, having thrown, by a single movement, his velvet-lined cloak over his left shoulder, disposing it with grace, he resumed his walk, not at all disconcerted by the bourgeois glances that he encountered. As soon as the shops began to be lighted, and the night to appear sufficiently dark, he bent his steps toward the Place du Palais Royal, like a man who feared to be recognized; for he kept by the side of the en closure as far as the fountain, in order to reach, under shelter of the hackney-coaches, the entrance of Rue Froidmanteau, an obscure, dirty, and low thoroughfare, a sort of sewer, which the police tol erate, near the salubrious Palais Royal, just as an Italian major-domo would allow a negligent valet to heap, in a corner of the staircase, the sweepings of the apartment.

Expanding interdisciplinary investigations into gender and material culture, Katherine A. McIver here adds a new dimension to Renaissance patronage studies by considering domestic art - the decoration of the domestic interior - as opposed to patronage of the fine arts (painting, sculpture and architecture). Taking a multidimensional approach, McIver looks at women as collectors of precious material goods, as organizers of the early modern home, and as decorators of its interior. By analyzing the inventories of women's possessions, McIver considers the wide range of domestic objects that women owned, such as painted and inlaid chests, painted wall panels, tapestries, fine fabrics for wall and bed hangings, and elaborate jewelry (pendant earrings, brooches, garlands for the hair, necklaces and rings) as well as personal devotional objects. Considering all forms of patronage opportunities open to women, she evaluates their role in commissioning and utilizing works of art and architecture as a means of negotiating power in the court setting, in the process offering fresh insights into their lives, limitations, and the possibilities open to them as patrons. Using her subjects' financial records to track their sources of income and the circumstances under which it was spent, McIver thereby also provides insights into issues of Renaissance women's economic rights and responsibilities. The primary focus on the lives and patronage patterns of three relatively unknown women, Laura Pallavicina-Sanvitale, Giacoma Pallavicina and Camilla Pallavicina, provides a new model for understanding what women bought, displayed, collected and commissioned. By moving beyond the traditional artistic centers of Florence, Venice and Rome, analyzing instead women's artistic patronage in the feudal courts around Parma and Piacenza during the sixteenth century, McIver nuances our understanding of women's position and power both in and out of the home. Carefully integrating extensive archival
