Honor\u00e9 de Balzac (1799-1850) studeerde rechten aan de Sorbonne en was als secretaris werkzaam op een advocatenkantoor. In 1819 brak hij zijn studie af om schrijver te kunnen worden. Sinds die tijd publiceerde hij uit geldgebrek onder pseudoniem talrijke colportageromans.<\/p>\n

Ook een van de meest productieve: in die periode voltooide hij zijn 85 romans, onder de overkoepelende titel La com\u00e9die humaine<\/em>.
