Book Description
Le Deputé d'Arcis is classed under the Scènes de la vie politique in the Comédie humaine. It is divided into three sections: I: L'Election; II: Lettres Edifiantes; III: Le Comte de Sallenauve. The only part that appeared in Balzac's life was the Election, which was published in L'Union Monarchique in 1847. The work was completed by Charles Rabou, who was chosen by Balzac to finish it and the second and third chapters first appeared in the Constitutionnel in 1853. Rastignac and Jacques. Collins, who were introduced in Père Goriot, appear in The deputy from Arcis. The latter, who had assumed the names of Vautrin, Trompe-la-Mort (in Père Goriot), and Herrera (in Lost Illusions), now appears in three characters here: Monsieur de Saint-Esteve, the Marquis de Sallenauve, and Monsieur le Comte Halphertius. Dorlange is a grandson of Danton, which explains the likeness that everyone noticed.
