4.9/5 (12360 ratings)

Description:Excerpt from A Memoir of Honore De Balzac A complete life of Balzac cannot be written at the present time, and possibly never can be. The necessary documents either do not exist or they are not obtain-able. Unpublished letters and papers there are, in possession of the compatriot who best understood him and who ought to write his life, if it be ever written, - the Vicomte de Spoelberch de Lovenjoul; but it is doubtful if even these papers will throw light on that inner self which Balzac's own will, aided by circumstances, withdrew from the knowledge of others. There are periods in his life when he disappears. Nearly the whole of what he was to himself, what his own being was, what were the influences that moulded it, how that eye that saw the manifold lives of others saw his own life, how that soul which crowned its earthly work with a vision of the Living Word was nurtured, - what that soul was, in short, has been concealed from sight.
