When Balzac states that his intent is to rescue Catherine’s historical reputation, this is from those 19th century French historians who considered her to be an ineffective ruler.

In a parallel fashion, Balzac’s own political goals were to suppress and defeat any resurgence of the post-French Revolution republicanism. (goodreads)
