La Balzac, Honoré de 1799-1850 creator text utu 2013 monographic fr 1 online resource : multiple file formats "La Comédie humaine - Volume 02" by Honoré de Balzac is part of a multi-volume collection written between 1829-1848. This ambitious series of interlinked novels and stories depicts French society during the Restoration and July Monarchy periods. Balzac portrays the rise of capitalism and money's corrupting influence, creating vivid character types like ambitious provincials, miserly tyrants, and outlaws with multiple identities. His realistic portrayal of previously ignored aspects of life—including courtesans, financiers, and complex women—revolutionized the novel and became a printing phenomenon despite Catholic Church opposition.
