"Balzac's Contes Drolatiques, or Droll Stories, were originally published in three volumes in the 1830s. Set in medieval Europe, these stories were Balzac's attempt to write in the great tradition of Rabelais and Boccaccio, to render the Middle Ages with a touch of raunchy humor, and to provide a delightful portrait of medieval France. Balzac took the old themes that had delighted his ancestors--the tales of faithless wives and confiding husbands, of monks incredibly endowed for amorous athleticism, of lusty wenches and adventurous lads, and of great bouts of eating and drinking." --

Autorenporträt
Honoré de Balzac was born in 1799 in France. As a novelist and playwright, he is widely regarded as the founder of realism in European literature. His work had a profound effect on generations of writers who have followed him, from Proust to Dickens to Faulkner to Kerouac. He is best known for his La Comédie humaine, a multivolume collection of linked novels and stories. He died in 1850 in Paris at the age of fifty-one.
