Honoré de Balzac; May 20, 1799, Tours, First French Republic - August 18, 1850, Paris, Second French Republic) - French writer: novelist, playwright, literary and art critic, essayist, journalist and publisher; one of the founders of realism in European literature. Balzac's largest work is a series of novels and stories, The Human Comedy, which paints a picture of life of a modern writer of French society. Balzac's works were very popular in Europe and even during his lifetime earned him a reputation as one of the greatest prose writers of the 19th century.
