简介 | 编辑推荐 Lucien, tired of drinking from the rudely-fashioned cup of poverty, was on the verge of making one of those drastic decisions which young men of twenty are apt to make. 内容推荐 Handsome would-be poet Lucien Chardon is poor and naive, but highly ambitious. Failing to make his name in his dull provincial hometown, he is taken up by a patroness, the captivating married woman Madame de Bargeton, and prepares to forge his way in the glamorous beau monde of Paris. But Lucien has entered a world far more dangerous than he realizes, as Madame de Bargeton's reputation becomes compromised and the fickle, venomous denizens of the courts and salons conspire to keep him out of their ranks. Lucien eventually learns that, wherever he goes, talent counts for nothing in comparison to money, intrigue and unscrupulousness. Lost Illusions is one of the greatest novels in the rich procession of the Com6die humaine, Balzac'spanoramic social and moral history of his times. 目录 Introduction Chronology Further Reading PART I.: THE TWO POETS A provincial printing-office Madame de Bargeton A social evening and a riverside stroll Catastrophic sequels to provincial love PART II: A GREAT MAN IN EMBRYO First-fruits Flicoteaux Two varieties of publishers First friendship The 'Cenade' The flowers of poverty A newspaper seen from outside The sonnets Good advice A third variety of publisher The Wooden Galleries A publisher's bookshop in the Wooden Calleries A fourth variety of publisher Behind the scenes A use for druggists Coralie How a news-sheet is edited The supper An actress's apartments Last visit to the CAnacle A variety of journalist Boots can change one's way of life The arcana of journalism Re-enter Dauriat The battle begins Dauriat pays a call A study in the art of recantation Journalistic grandeurs and servitudes The playwrights' banker A journalist's christening-party Polite society The 'viveurs' A fifth variety of publisher Blackmail The m0ney-brokers A change of front Finot's finesses The fateful week Skulduggery Farewdls PART III: AN INVENTOR'S TRIBULATIONS Introduction The doleful confession of a 'child of the age' Back-kick from a donkey THE HISTORY OF A LAW-SUIT The problem at issue A plucky wife A Judas in the making The two Cointets The first thunderbolt A glance at paper-making Provincial solicitors A free lecture on dishonoured bills for those unable to meet them Lucien under distraint 'Your house is on fire' A contrast in loyalties Keeping the fire going Climax Imprisonment for debt in the provinces An obdurate father ~ The pack pauses before the kill A bride for Petit-Claud The Curd has his say THE FATAL MEMBER OF THE FAMILY The prodigal's return An unexpected triumph How the triumph had been staged A rare kind of devotion The pride of his province ?
