Qui va sortir amb Maria du Fresnay?

Marie du Fresnay (French pronunciation: [maʁi dy fʁɛnɛ]), or Maria du Fresnay, née Daminois (1809–1892), was a French writer.

She was the mistress of Honoré de Balzac, by whom she had a daughter, Marie-Caroline du Fresnay (b. 4 June 1834), the only child of the French author. Her own mother was the playwright and novelist Adèle Daminois.

She was also the mother of French knight Ange Du Fresnay and the ancestor of French writer and silent film director Guy du Fresnay as well as of French contemporary essayist and economist Philippe du Fresnay.

Her life inspired Balzac's most famous novel, Eugénie Grandet (1833), which depicted in part her family, who were living at the time in the French city of Sartrouville.

Honoré de Balzac (Tours, 20 de maig de 1799 - París, 18 d'agost de 1850) va ser el novel·lista francès més important de la primera meitat del segle xix i el principal representant de l'anomenada "novel·la realista".

Treballador infatigable va elaborar una obra monumental, la Comèdia Humana, cicle coherent de diverses desenes de novel·les l'objectiu de les quals és descriure d'una manera quasi exhaustiva la societat francesa de la seva època o, segons la seva famosa frase, "fer-li la competència al registre civil".
