So he made the novel *#tlzqm9 into
black and yellow jordans his modern kind of history, more amorphous and miscellaneous than the respected classic forms, more elusive and more intimate. "The historian of manners," he noted, "obeys harsher laws than those that bind the historian of facts. He must make everything seem plausible, even the truth; whereas in the domain of history properly so called, the impossible is justified by the fact that it occurred." The novelists' version was "in the depiction of the causes that beget the facts, in the mysteries of the human heart whose impulses

Each hero is moved by some dominant passion-for money, love, or social position. Relentlessly contemporary and comprehen- sive, he still drew only the classes of Frenchmen he knew. He did not write about peasants or workers, but wrote about authors, artists, journalists, businessmen, speculators, charlatans, ne'er-do-wells, landowners, mer- chants, and the women whom they loved and who loved them. In Stefan Zweig's phrase, he was "a literary Linnaeus."
Balzac's youthful "literary hogwash" written before 1829 was unsigned. The first novel published under his name, and the earliest work to be incorporated in La Comedie humaine was Les Chouans (1829), about royal-
jordans with yellow blue white black 23s ist guerrillas in western France in 1799. He was already irritating publishers by endless proof corrections, which ran up printing

Les Chouans was praised by reviewers but did not sell. His next book, La Physiologie du marriage, published later that year, a surefire attention- getter, set him on the road to fame, or at least notoriety. In it "a young bachelor" revealed the knowledge of women he had acquired in thirty years of unmarried life. Insisting that "marriage is not born of Nature," Balzac
realistically separated romantic love from the biological drive to reproduce.
