Zola, Émile Edouard Charles Antoine
Zola, Émile Edouard Charles Antoine (1840–1902) French novelist. Zola became widely known following the publication of his third book, the novel
Thérèse Raquin (1867). For the next quarter of a century, he worked on what became the Rougon-Macquart sequence (1871–93) – a 20-novel cycle telling the story of a family during the Second Empire; it established Zola's reputation as the foremost exponent of
naturalism in fiction. The sequence includes his famous novels
The Drunkard (1877),
Nana (1880),
Germinal (1885), and
The Human Animal (1890). In 1898, he wrote a famous letter, beginning “J'Accuse”, which denounced the punishment of Alfred Dreyfus. This led to a brief exile in England and, after the vindication of Dreyfus, a hero's return. See also
