Then, in order to give their serious creation to seek a stable economic source, he decided to temporarily abandon the business.

In 1822, when Balzac was cold, the pain of despair, met with Mrs. Berni. Mrs. Bernie's mother was a maid of the queen, very familiar with the life of the court, the secret of communication and the fate of women. Mrs. Berni is 22 years older than Balzac, with a perfect sense of tenderness, elegant conversation, compassionate compassion, and loving maternal love. All this deeply attracted Balzac, so that Balzac felt the little love did not taste the maternal warmth. She had a great influence on his life. Balzac called her his mother, friend, family, partner and consultant.

From 1825 onwards, he has tried the publishing industry, opened a printing plant, cast word factory, each failed in the end. Four years of commercial sea ups and downs, so that he had enough bankruptcy, closure, clean up, debt pain. Finally, the mother came forward for his debt.

In 1829, Balzac completed the novel "Joan". The historical novel "The Joan" (1829) is the first work published by Balzac with the real name, describing the riots against the republic of the Republic of France, which occurred in Brittany in France in 1901. The author gives the heroic Republic of the military to be glorious, but also greatly beautified the Zhu An party leader Marlborough Mendo, showing his sympathy for the nobility. In order to write this novel, he had carefully studied the historical literature about the riots, personally went to Brittany to investigate the situation of the mountains and the peasantry, to visit the riot witnesses and participants, but also from the friends of the Duchess of Berry to collect a lot about Anger of the party. The transition from writing a novel to writing a historical novel is the first important step in Balzac's approach to critical realism. He is in the "Zhu An people" is not described in ancient history, but belongs to the contemporary social life areas of important events. Focusing on contemporary social life, it is Balzac later written "human comedy" a feature.

From 1829 to write "Zhu An people", Balzac's creation began to mature, that is, "human comedy" period (1829-1848). In the three or four decades, in addition to his commitment to literary and artistic creation, but also out of Paris high society salon, for several newspapers and writings, his contact with a very wide range of life.

Since this period, Balzac has explored in the realist theory. He believes that the novelist must face the real life and make himself a contemporary historian of customs. He also believes that the task of the novelist is not only to describe the social phenomenon, but also to clarify the causes of these phenomena and to point out the meaning behind the characters, their desires and events. He said that the mission of the poet in the creation of a typical, so that the typical individuality, personality typical; and that the typical characters should be those who and how similar to his character set In one. He also emphasizes that art must serve the community; that the artist not only describes sin and virtue, but also points out the educational significance; the artist must be both a moral and a politician.

In April 1830, Balzac "human comedy" in the "private life scene" two volumes published. However, he was deeply concerned about the situation of French literary creators. Although the Act of Decree enacted in 1791 and the Reproduction Act promulgated in 1793 established the principle of copyright, plagiarism, plagiarism, and imitation of other works were still everywhere, and even his works were copied by others.

In 1831, Balzac joined the royalist party. But his political attitude and extreme royalists are not entirely consistent. He is a party in the liberal, not popular among the party members, he even publicly criticized the royalist party, saying "this party is disgusting", "This is a failed party.

On August 1, 1833, Balzac wrote in his letter to Mrs. Hanska that "European Literature" in the description of a royal guard soldier in the farm barn about Napoleon's life, is copying his " Village doctor "in an important chapter.

So, a few months later, Balzac in the "Paris magazine" published a letter to the 19th century French writers open letter, once again talked about the above problems. He not only describes how the writers are the victims, but also calls them to unite to fight. He wrote that the way out is for themselves. Is to admit their rights, is to their power between each other's recognition. In the interests of lofty interests, they were organized to form an association like a playwright (1777, established by the most important dramatist of France, the Bomaux initiative).

In January 1848, Balzac departed back to Paris to prepare their new home. At the end of September, he traveled to Ukraine, but he was no longer excited about Viezania, and in fact de orges and her daughter were indifferent to him, and worse, he was so many years of high-intensity work damage to the body Health is also debt collection. In this long winter, he suffered from encephalitis, chronic heart disease and bronchitis, his life has entered the final failure period.

After a long pursuit and awaiting, Mrs. de Sang Siya finally agreed to get married. On March 14, 1850, Madame de Hanci was willing to meet Balzac's desire for more than ten years with compassion. In the Ukrainian city of Berkeley's San Barbara Catholic Church, they held a wedding. In addition to the newlyweds, only two witnesses and a priest attended. More than a month later, they set off to return to France. The journey to the ills of the Balzac is disastrous. When they finally returned to Balzac carefully arranged love nest, he has no longer set foot on the steps, the pace of death has become more and more approaching. In his last days, Victor Hugo often came to see him, Balzac complained to his old friend that he could not complete the "human comedy".

August 18, 1850 at 11:30 on the night, Balzac did not complete the "human comedy" regret left the world. A superstar on the literary world fell like this, at the end of his life, accompanied him only gave him a lifetime of pain also helped his life mother Anne Charlotte. According to Balzac's wish, his coffin will be placed in the Lacey Cemetery.

Balzac is very important in the history of French literature. Before him, the French novel has not been completely out of the story of the pattern, the subject matter and artistic expression have a certain limit. Balzac developed the art space of the novel, almost unlimited the expansion of the literary theme, so that all aspects of society, including those who seem to be like poetry and poetic incompatible things can be painted. He draws on the characteristics of other literary themes, and combines the various artistic forms such as drama, epic, painting and modeling into the creation of novels.

Critics Tyler praised him, "Truly making him a philosopher, and beyond all the great art, is to put all his works together into a work, part of the works are connected to each other, the same person Repeated, and associated with each other ... ... never the artist gathered so much brilliance in the characters they want to describe, and never have such a perfect ... ... Balzacor is really great, just as he held the reality, and grip Lived all his great system, and again his paintings were united, faithful and interesting.

Balzac's greatest contribution to realist literature lies in his meticulous characterization of typical characters and social customs, and expresses the change and development of character in social environment. He depicts the upsurge of the bourgeoisie on the aristocratic society day by day in terms of "chronicles". He created the characters of the high old man, Grande, Gaobo Saike, Rustine, Luxi, bunches, vodo cold and so almost has become a literary history of different types of bourgeois representative of the model image, the future Realistic literature has had a profound impact. Although these characters are typical, but not as Dickens created by the characters as rigid, but with a distinctive personality color.
