About the author
Honoré de Balzac
10k books4,544 followersFrench writer Honoré de Balzac (born Honoré Balzac), a founder of the realist school of fiction, portrayed the panorama of society in a body of works, known collectively as
La comédie humaine
.
Honoré de Balzac authored 19th-century novels and plays. After the fall of Napoléon in 1815, his magnum opus, a sequence of almost a hundred novels and plays, entitled, presents life in the years.
Due to keen observation of fine detail and unfiltered representation, European literature regards Balzac. He features renowned multifaceted, even complex, morally ambiguous, full lesser characters. Character well imbues inanimate objects; the city of Paris, a backdrop, takes on many qualities. He influenced many famous authors, including the novelists Marcel Proust, Émile Zola, Charles John Huffam Dickens, Gustave Flaubert, Henry James, and Jack Kerouac as well as important philosophers, such as Friedrich Engels. Many works of Balzac, made into films, continue to inspire.
An enthusiastic reader and independent thinker as a child, Balzac adapted with trouble to the teaching style of his grammar. His willful nature caused trouble throughout his life and frustrated his ambitions to succeed in the world of business. Balzac finished, and people then apprenticed him as a legal clerk, but after wearying of banal routine, he turned his back on law. He attempted a publisher, printer, businessman, critic, and politician before and during his career. He failed in these efforts From his own experience, he reflects life difficulties and includes scenes.
Possibly due to his intense schedule and from health problems, Balzac suffered throughout his life. Financial and personal drama often strained his relationship with his family, and he lost more than one friend over critical reviews. In 1850, he married Ewelina Hańska, his longtime paramour; five months later, he passed away.

Eugenie Grandet
Incorruttibile ed inalterabile come l'oro su cui è seduta. E altrettanto noiosa (Eugenie di persona, non il libro).
Alla fin fine la figlia del vecchio Grandet non ha smentito il sangue nè l'educazione.
Certo, il cugino l'ha miserabilmente tradita ma anche lei non è stata di meglio: come ha detto la vecchia Nanon "Se io avessi avuto un uomo l'avrei seguito in capo al mondo!". E infatti Nanon dimostra di essere l'unica con un po' di sangue nelle vene e non solo dell'oro (o la spasmodica ossessione dell'oro).
Balzac è al suo meglio, tesse una tela finissima con i fili più grossolani. Ed Eugenie e gli altri sono tante farfalle e insetti infilzati su uno spillo e sottoposti alla sua lente. Nulla gli sfugge e da bravo entomologo ce lo racconta.
