Emile Zola is a towering literary figure of the nineteenth century.
His main literary achievement was his twenty-volume novel cycle,
Les Rougon-Macquart (1870-93). In this series he combines a
novelist's skills with those of the investigative journalist to
examine the social, sexual and moral landscape of the late
nineteenth century in a way that scandalized bourgeois society. In
1898 Zola crowned his literary career with a political act, his
famous open letter ('J'accuse...!') to the President of the French
Republic in defence of Alfred Dreyfus. These newly commissioned
essays offer readings of individual novels as well as analyses of
Zola's originality, his representation of society, sexuality and
gender, his relations with the painters of his time, his narrative
art, and his role in the Dreyfus Affair. The Companion also
includes a chronology, detailed summaries of all of Zola's novels,
suggestions for further reading, and information about specialist
resources.
