DOWNLOAD EBOOKSeraphita by Honor� de Balzac, 1835.In a castle in Norway near the fjord Stromfjord, S�raphit�s, astrange and melancholic being, conceals a terrible secret. S�raphit�sloves Minna, and she returns this love, believing S�raphit�s to be aman. But S�raphit�s is also loved by Wilfrid, who considersS�raphit�s to be a woman (S�raph�ta).In reality, S�raphit�s-S�raph�ta is a perfect androgyne, born toparents who by the doctrines of Emanuel Swedenborg have transcendedtheir humanity, and S�raphit�s-S�raph�ta is the perfect example ofhumanity.Honor� de Balzac (1799 - 1850) was a French novelist and playwright.Owing to his keen observation of detail and unfiltered representationof society, Balzac is regarded as one of the founders of realism inEuropean literature. He is renowned for his multi-facetedcharacters; even his lesser characters are complex, morally ambiguousand fully human. Inanimate objects are imbued with character as well;the city of Paris, a backdrop for much of his writing, takes on manyhuman qualities.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCHAPTER I. SERAPHITUS As the eye glances over a map of the coasts of Norway, can the imagination fail to marvel at their fantastic indentations and serrated edges, like a granite lace, against which the surges of the North Sea roar incessantly? Who has not dreamed of the majestic sights to be seen on those beachless shores, of that multitude of creeks and inlets and little bays, no two of them alike, yet all trackless abysses? We may almost fancy that Nature took pleasure in recording by ineffaceable hieroglyphics the symbol of Norwegian life, bestowing on these coasts the conformation of a fish's spine, fishery being the staple commerce of the country, and well-nigh the only means of living of the hardy men who cling like tufts of lichen to the arid cliffs. Here, through fourteen degrees of longitude, barely seven hundred thousand souls maintain existence. Thanks to perils devoid of glory, to year-long snows which clothe the Norway peaks and guard them from profaning foot of traveller, these sublime beauties are virgin still; they will be seen to harmonize with human phenomena, also virgin—at least to poetry—which here took place, the history of which it is our purpose to relate. If one of these inlets, mere fissures to the eyes of the eider-ducks, is wide enough for the sea not to freeze between the prison-walls of rock against which it surges, the country-people call the little bay a "fiord,"—a word which geographers of every nation have adopted into their respective languages. Though a certain resemblance exists among all these fiords, each has its own characteristics. The sea has everywhere forced its way as through a breach, yet the rocks about each fissure are diversely rent, and their tumultuous precipices defy the rules of geometric law. Here the scarp is dentelled like a saw; there the narrow ledges barely allow the snow to lodge or the noble crests of the Northern pines to spread themselves; farther on, some convulsion of Nature may have rounded a coquettish curve into a lovely valley flanked in rising terraces with black-plumed pines. Truly we are tempted to call this land the Switzerland of Ocean.
