The Rise and Fall of César Birotteau (1837) is a captivating tale from Balzacs renowned series The Human Comedy. Set against the vibrant backdrop of post-Napoleonic Paris, this story explores the dramatic shift in society as the aristocracy and the church cede power to an ambitious middle class of merchants, landlords, lawyers, and bankers. César Birotteau, a kind-hearted and unassuming perfumer, has risen from modest beginnings to earn the respect of his community and achieve commercial success. However, as he strives to ascend even higher, he becomes ensnared in a perilous web of financial intrigue and speculation. - Summary by Bruce PirieCopyright Fiction Classics アート 世界 文学史・文学批評
