Not illustrated. 1896 edition. Excerpt: ...voice, in a gesture, in the imposition of our will on others. The old soldier trembled, hearing that word, that first, that expressive "Monsieur!" It was at once a reproach, a prayer, a pardon, a hope, a despair, a question, an answer. That one word included all. A woman must needs be a great comedian to throw such eloquence and so many feelings into one word. Truth is never so complete in its expression; it cannot utter itself wholly, --it leaves something to be seen within. The colonel was filled with remorse for his suspicions, his exactions, his anger, and he lowered his eyes to conceal his feelings. " Monsieur," continued the countess, after an almost imperceptible pause, " I knew you at once." " Rosine," said the old soldier, " that word contains the only balm that can make me forget my troubles." Two great tears fell hotly on his wife's hands, which he pressed as if to show her a paternal affection. " Monsieur," she continued, " how is it you did not see what it cost me to appear before a stranger in a position so false as mine. If I am forced to blush for what I am, at least let it be in my own home. Ought not such a secret to remain buried in our own hearts? You will, I hope, forgive my apparent indifference to the misfortunes of a Chabert in whom I had no reason to believe. I did receive your.letters," she said, hastily, seeing a sudden objection on her husband's face; " but they reached me thirteen months after the battle of Eylau; they were open, torn, dirty; the writing was unknown to me; and I, who had just obtained Napoleon's signature to my new marriage contract, supposed that some clever swindler was trying to impose...

Honore de Balzac (1799 - 1850) was a French novelist and playwright. His great work was a series of short stories and novels collectively entitled La Comedie Humaine, which gives a picture of swathes of French society in the years after the 1815 fall of Napoleon Bonaparte. Balzac had plenty of experiences to draw upon, he had been an apprentice in a law office, a publisher, printer, businessman, critic, and politician and failed at all of these pursuits. The novels reveal his difficulties with all these careers. Many of these books have been adapted for the screen and to this day they are a source of inspiration for writers, filmmakers and critics. This volume includes twelve works in La Comedie Humaine, in their recommended reading order: A Woman Of Thirty, The Thirteen, The Girl With The Golden Eyes, The Two Brothers, The Elixir Of Life, Catherine De' Medici, Eugenie Grandet, Rise And Fall Of Cesar Birotteau, The Hidden Masterpiece, Sarrasine, The Hated Son, Farewell

La Comédie humaine est le titre sous lequel Honoré de Balzac a regroupé un ensemble de plus de quatre-vingt-dix ouvrages — romans, nouvelles, contes et essais — de genres réaliste, romantique, fantastique ou philosophique, et dont l’écriture s’échelonne de 1829 à 1850. Par cette œuvre, Balzac veut faire une « histoire naturelle de la société », explorant de façon systématique les groupes sociaux et les rouages de la société, afin de brosser une vaste fresque de son époque susceptible de servir de référence aux générations futures. Il répartit ses récits en trois grands ensembles : Études de mœurs, Études philosophiques et Études analytiques. Le premier est le plus important et se divise lui-même en six sections, explorant divers milieux sociaux et régions de la France. Les ouvrages sont liés entre eux de façon organique par plusieurs centaines de personnages susceptibles de reparaître dans divers romans, à des moments variés de leur existence. Pour assurer l'unité de son œuvre, Balzac corrige et réécrit inlassablement nombre de ses ouvrages, afin de mieux les fondre dans un plan d'ensemble qui est allé compter jusqu'à cent quarante-cinq titres. Créateur du roman moderne, Balzac veut décrire la totalité du réel et s'intéresse à des réalités jusque-là ignorées en littérature, parce que laides ou vulgaires. Il montre sous ses diverses formes la montée du capitalisme et la toute-puissance de l'argent, menant à la disparition de la noblesse et à la dissolution des liens sociaux. Le titre a été choisi en référence à la Divine Comédie de Dante. Mais au lieu d'une entreprise théologique, l'auteur s'est voulu sociologue et a créé un univers non manichéen, où l'amour et l'amitié tiennent une grande place, et qui met en lumière la complexité des êtres et la profonde immoralité d'une mécanique sociale où les faibles sont écrasés tandis que triomphent le banquier véreux et le politicien vénal.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1904 edition. Excerpt: ...be told in a few words. All my debts are paid; I mean those that harassed me. The prospect that promised good by a loan failed; everything about me became more serious, more inflamed. During this month writs, protests, sheriffs, crowded upon me; I truly think that a stout volume in-folio could be made of that literature of misfortune. Then, when flames surrounded me on every side, when all had failed me on the side of succour, when no friend could or perhaps would save me, before renouncing France and going to find a country in Russia, in the Ukraine, I attempted a last effort; and that effort was crowned with a success which will redouble the bitterness of my enemies. God grant that you will divine all the agony that lies on this simple page, for then you will indeed feel pity for your poor moujik. Nothing still shone on the horizon in this great shipwreck of all my ambitions but the una fides, the principle of which is adoremus in ceternum. I went to find a speculator named Victor Bohain, to whom I had done some very disinterested services. He immediately called in the man who had drawn Chateaubriand out of trouble, and a capitalist who has of late done a publishing business. Here is the agreement that came out of our four heads: --1. They gave me fifty thousand francs to pay my urgent debts. 2. They secure me, for the first year, fifteen hundred francs a month. The second year, I may have three thousand monthly; and the fourth, four thousand, up to the fifteenth year, if I supply them with a certain number of volumes. We are in partnership for fifteen years. We are not author and publishers, but associates, partners. I bring to them the management of all my books made or to be made for fifteen years. My three associates agree to advance..

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1896 edition. Excerpt: ... beggars fill the streets, more rag-pickers rake in the gutters, more miserable old men creep along on the sunny side of walls, more workmen out of work hang about the street-corners, more prisoners are taken to the policecourts than in any other quarter of Paris. About the middle of this street, which is always damp, for its gutter conveys to the Seine the blackened water of several dye-houses, stands an old building, restored, no doubt, in the days of Francois I., built of brick, supported by courses and copings of freestone. Its solidity is proclaimed by an external shape which is not unusual in certain very ancient houses in Paris. It has, if we may be allowed to say so, a sort of stomach, produced by the bulging of its first floor under the weight of the second and third floors, although itself supported by the strong stone wall of the ground-floor. At first sight it looks as if the mullions of the windows, although held by strong stone casings, were about to crack in two; but an observer will not fail to note that this old house has one characteristic in common with the Tour de Boulogne, --the old bricks and the worn old stones preserve, rigidly, their centre of gravity. Like all houses built before the invention of carriages, the arch of the gateway is very low and resembles the entrance to a prison. If on a rainy day some pedestrian should take shelter beneath its low-vaulted roof with projecting whitewashed beams, he could not fail to observe the picture presented by the interior regions of this dwelling. To the left is a tiny square garden, which allows of only four steps in all directions, --a garden of black earth, with trellises without vines, where, in default of vegetation, lie the shadows of two trees, heaps of papers, old.
