Books by Emile Zola

Quando Zola aveva circa vent’anni, dopo essere stato bocciato al termine delle scuole, si trovò a lavorare nella libreria di Louis Hachette. Utilizzò il suo tempo libero per scrivere queste storie colme di immaginazione e fantasia. Tutte e nove le storie ruotano attorno al personaggio di Ninetta, cui vengono raccontate. Vista l’età dell’autore ai tempi, e il fatto che la maggior parte dei personaggi nella narrazione hanno all’incirca la stessa età, queste storie sono un’eccellente testimonianza della gioventù e di com’era essere giovani nella Francia dell’800.Emile Zola (1840-1902) è uno dei romanzieri francesi più amati. In genere è ritenuto il capostipite della scuola francese del naturalismo letterario e dalle sue opere sono stati tratti numerosi adattamenti, sia per il cinema che per il teatro. Lo si ricorda soprattutto per la serie "I Rougon-Macquart" e per i romanzi "Germinale", "Nana" e "Thérèse Raquin".

Thérèse Raquin is an 1868 novel by French writer Émile Zola, first published in serial form in the literary magazine L'Artiste in 1867. It was Zola's third novel, though the first to earn wide fame. The novel's adultery and murder were considered scandalous and famously described as "putrid" in a review in the newspaper Le Figaro. Thérèse Raquin tells the story of a young woman, unhappily married to her first cousin by an overbearing aunt, who may seem to be well-intentioned but in many ways is deeply selfish. Thérèse's husband, Camille, is sickly and egocentric and when the opportunity arises, Thérèse enters into a turbulent and sordidly passionate affair with one of Camille's friends, Laurent.

L'¿uvre is the fourteenth novel in the Rougon-Macquart series by Émile Zola. The title is often rendered in English as The Masterpiece or His Masterpiece. It refers to the struggles of the protagonist Claude Lantier to paint a great work reflecting his talent and genius. L'¿uvre is a fictional account of Zola's friendship with Paul Cézanne and a fairly accurate portrayal of the Parisian art world in the mid-19th century. Many of the characteristics ascribed to Claude Lantier are a compound taken from the lives of several impressionist painters including Claude Monet, Édouard Manet, as well as Paul Cézanne. Zola's self-portrait can be seen in the character of the novelist Pierre Sandoz.

Émile Édouard Charles Antoine Zola (2 April 1840 - 29 September 1902) was a French novelist, playwright, journalist, the best-known practitioner of the literary school of naturalism, and an important contributor to the development of theatrical naturalism. He was a major figure in the political liberalization of France. Zola was nominated for the first and second Nobel Prize in Literature in 1901 and 1902. During his early years, Zola wrote numerous short stories and essays, four plays, and three novels.

Doctor Pascal (Le Docteur Pascal) is the twentieth and final novel of the Rougon-Macquart series by Émile Zola, first published in June 1893 by Charpentier. Zola's plan for the Rougon-Macquart novels was to show how heredity and environment worked on the members of one family over the course of the Second Empire. He wraps up his heredity theories in this novel. Le Docteur Pascal is furthermore essentially a story about science versus faith. The novel begins in 1872, after the fall of the Second Empire and the end of the reign of Emperor Napoleon III. The title character, Pascal Rougon (b. 1813), is the son of Pierre and Félicité Rougon, whose rise to power in the fictional town of Plassans is detailed in the first novel of the series La fortune des Rougon.

Abbé Mouret's Transgression (La Faute de l'Abbé Mouret) (1875) is the fifth novel in Émile Zola's twenty-volume series Les Rougon-Macquart. Viciously anticlerical in tone, it follows on from the horrific events at the end of La Conquête de Plassans, focussing this time on a remote Provençal backwater village. Unusually for Zola, the novel contains very few characters and locations, and the level of realist observation compared to outright fantasy is most uncharacteristic; however, the novel remains extraordinarily powerful and readable, and is considered one of Zola's most linguistically inventive and well-crafted works.

The Dream (Le rêve) is the sixteenth novel in the Rougon-Macquart series by Émile Zola. It is about an orphan girl who falls in love with a nobleman, and is set in the years 1860-69. The novel was published by Charpentier in October 1888 and translated into English by Eliza E. Chase in 1893.

Doctor Pascal is the twentieth and final novel in Zola's great Rougon-Macquart series. Pascal Rougon has spent his life chronicling the hereditary patterns and illnesses of his family, using medicine to attempt cures, whilst his niece Clotilde places her faith in God.

Antisemitismi oli nousussa 1800-luvun lopun Ranskassa, kuten monessa muussakin Euroopan maassa. Kirjailija Emile Zola paatti ryhtya vastataistoon ja kirjoitti "e;Juutalaisten puolustukseksi"e; -nimisen lentokirjan vuonna 1898. Kirja oli suunnattu ensisijaisesti katolisia antisemiitteja vastaan. "e;Juutalaisten puolustukseksi"e; kuvaa osuvasti asioita, jotka osaltaan johtivat kolmekymmenta vuotta myohemmin juutalaisten joukkotuhoon.

Før han begyndte at skrive Nana, vidste Zola intet om Théâtre des Variétés i Paris. Dramatikeren Ludovic Halévy inviterede ham til at deltage i en operette med ham dér den 15. februar 1878 og tog ham bag scenen. Halévy fortalte ham utallige historier om det amorøse liv for stjernen Anna Judic, hvis ménage à trois fungerede som model for forholdene til Rose Mignon, hendes mand og Steiner i Zolas roman. Halévy forsynede også Zola med historier om berømte prostituerede som Blanche d'Antigny, Anna Deslions, Delphine de Lizy og Hortense Schneider, som Zola trak på, da han skabte sin titelkarakter, Nana.

Dans ces histoires adressees a Ninon, Zola nous montre toute l'envergure de son talent, alors qu'il n'avait que vingt ans et travaillait dans la libraire de Louis Hachette, ayant rate son baccalaureat. Il passe ses heures creuses a ecrire des histoires, que voici. Elles sont toutes centrees autour du personnage de Ninon, et les personnages ont tous environs le meme age que Zola lui-meme. De ce fait, ces nouvelles sont un testament a ce que c'etait que d'etre jeune dans la France du 19e. -

The first major work of the father of French Naturalism, "Thérèse Raquin" is the shocking and scandalous initial big success in Emile Zola's impressive writing career. Zola's third novel was published serially in 1867 and then as a book in 1868. The story revolves around a young woman, Thérèse, who is unhappily married to her first cousin Camille, largely due to her domineering, if well-intentioned, aunt and Camille's mother, Madame Raquin. Camille, selfish and spoiled by his mother, decides to move the little family to Paris to pursue a career. While there Camille meets up with an old friend, Laurent, who quickly becomes Thérèse's lover. Thérèse and Laurent go to terrible and horrific lengths to be together, but the happy ending they think they will find eludes them and they cannot escape their guilt. It eventually become their undoing, proving them to be the "human beasts" that Zola attempted to portray in a scientifically detached manner in this grisly and intense experimental novel. A sinister story of adultery and murder in lower class Parisian society, "Thérèse Raquin" is a dreadfully realistic novel that remains one of Zola's most masterful works.
