Later, his teachers appear to have found him remarkable neither for good nor for evil. He was indeed never a scholar; but he must have read a good deal, and as he certainly had no time for it later, much of this reading must have been done early. The profession which Balzac's father chose for him was the law; and he not only passed through the schools thereof, and duly obtained his licence , but had three years practical experience in the offices of a notary and a solicitor ( ), for the latter of whom, M. Guillonnet-Merville, he seems to have had a sincere respect. But though no man of letters has ever had, in some ways, such a fancy for business, no man of business could ever come out of such a born man of letters.

II Life Print this section Balzac was born in Tours. He inherited the exuberant temperament of his businessman father. His mother was a sensitive and moody woman interested in mystical doctrines. Balzac’s own interest in the theories of Swedish scientist and theologian Emanuel Swedenborg, Austrian physician Franz Mesmer, and others may be explained in part by this early influence.

T-Z Subjects: A-B C-E F-L M-Z One of the masters of French nineteenth-century fiction, Balzac provocatively includes both lesbian and gay male characters in his novels. Although Balzac was trained in the law, he turned his back on a conventional career as soon as his legal studies had been completed (1819) and promptly began to write fiction. In the hope of accumulating enough wealth to finance his writing, he undertook various business ventures and speculated extensively. These actions resulted not in independence but in mountainous debts from which neither the assistance of adoring women nor the output of his febrile imagination could free him. Balzac's more than ninety novels display an acute grasp of the inner workings of society and have earned him an undisputed place among the masters of French nineteenth-century fiction.
