Synopsis "Albert Savarus: Un roman d'Honoré de Balzac (in French)"

Albert Savarus est un roman d'Honoré de Balzac paru en 1842 en feuilleton dans Le Siècle, publié en volume dans l'édition Furne de la même année, classé dans les Scènes de la vie privée de La Comédie humaine. Le roman paraît d'abord en feuilleton, puis rapidement dans une première édition chez Furne et enfin dans une dernière édition corrigée par Balzac chez Souverain. La différence principale entre ces deux éditions est le changement du nom de l'héroïne en Rosalie, a priori le nom choisi à l'origine par l'auteur en référence à ses amours avec Mme Hanska, mais que des considérations d'édition avaient fait remplacer par Philomène. Le roman se déroule presque entièrement dans l'espace romanesque d'une ville de Besançon fermée, militaire et bigote, que Balzac imagine à partir d'une brève visite en 18331. Il porte une grande part autobiographique, s'inspirant fortement des amours de Balzac lui-même avec Mme Hanska, tout particulièrement dans la nouvelle L'Ambitieux par amour, écrite par le héros Savarus lui-même, qui est reproduite, dans une double mise en abyme, in extenso dans le roman.

Honoré de Balzac (1799-1851), novelist, playwright, literary and art critic, essayist, journalist, and French printer, is considered one of the great writers of realism. Born in Tours, in 1814 he moved to Paris, where he studied law and began working in a law firm, but his love for literature drove him to abandon his career and dedicate himself to writing. He undertook several businesses, which ended in failure and left him in debt. With The Last Chouan (1829), he achieved great success. From then on, he began a feverish activity, writing, among others, The Physiology of Marriage (1829) and The Wild Ass's Skin (1831), with which he began to consolidate his prestige. In 1834, Balzac, a tireless worker, conceived the idea of making an exhaustive portrait of French society of his time by having the same characters appear in different stories, which began to give his work a unitary sense under the title of The Human Comedy, to which belong titles such as Eugénie Grandet (1833), Father Goriot (1835), Splendors and Miseries of Courtesans (1838-1847) or Cousin Bette (1846), although of the 137 novels that were to make it up, fifty remained incomplete. An extraordinary writer, capable of deploying in his works sublime reflections and ideas, creating an interesting story with strong social criticism through exquisite prose of great poetic level and philosophical depth, Balzac is considered the founder of the modern novel.
