AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Honoré de Balzac / Horace Raisson. Penal Code. Complete Manual of Honest People. Paris, Roret, 1829, 373 pp.
One volume in-12 (135x95 mm), half calf, spine smooth, decorated, marbled edges (binding of the period). Wear and rubbing on the boards and spine, losses on the spine. Interior fresh.
Third edition
The Penal Code. Complete Manual of Honest People is a work that blends a practical manual, social satire, and moral reflection. Behind the appearance of a commentary on the Penal Code, it actually offers a guide designed to help the reader recognize frauds, scams, and abuses of daily life. With a frequently ironic tone, the book presents a critical portrait of Restoration society and its false appearances.
The authorship of the work remains debated. Although officially published under the name of Raisson, several specialists believe that Honoré de Balzac authored a substantial part, if not the entirety.
