| Abstract: | Honore de Balzac wrote a story titled ''The Quest of the Absolute." It is a literary piece, filled with characters and events, but the chief theme of which is a person's pure drive toward reaching the ultimate, the n.e plus ultra, the tl1atness of existence. This motif is also the propelling the idea in Balzac's "The Unknown Masterpiece, "2 which describes a painter's effort to capture artistically, reality itself in its full actuality. Marcel Proust's In Search of Lost Time is also essentially a search for the absolute. |
