"Le Cabinet des Antiques" d'Honoré de Balzac plonge les lecteurs dans les intrigues de la haute société du XIXe siècle.
Au c¿ur de cette comédie humaine, Balzac tisse l'histoire des jumeaux d'Esgrignon, élevés dans la noblesse provinciale. L'arrivée de la belle Vicomtesse de Beauséant, fascinante et énigmatique, suscite des passions et des machinations. Les jeux de pouvoir, les alliances fragiles et les secrets de famille se dévoilent dans un tourbillon de drames et de rebondissements. Balzac peint avec maestria un tableau vivant de la société aristocratique, mêlant amour, trahison et désir de grandeur.
"Le Cabinet des Antiques" est une ¿uvre subtile et captivante qui révèle les nuances complexes de la nature humaine au sein d'une élite en quête d'honneur et de préservation des apparences.

Schweitzer Klassifikation
Honoré de Balzac was born into a family which aspired to achieve respectability through its industry and efforts. His father, born Bernard-François Balssa, was one of eleven children from an artisan family in Tarn, a region in the south of France. In 1760 he set off for Paris with only a Louis coin in his pocket, intent on improving his social standing; by 1776 he had become Secretary to the King's Council and a Freemason (he had also changed his name to the more noble sounding Balzac, his son later adding-without official recognition-the nobiliary particle: de). After the Reign of Terror (1793-94), François Balzac was despatched to Tours to coordinate supplies for the Army.
