About this ebook

Une édition de référence de La Conquête de Plassans d’Émile Zola, spécialement conçue pour la lecture sur les supports numériques.


« Mouret ne voulait point s’emporter ; il eut un rire de complaisance.

“Ce n’est pas le diable, peut-être… Te voilà toute tremblante. Je ne te savais pas si superstitieuse que ça. Tu ne crois pas au moins que les prêtres portent malheur, comme on dit. Ils ne portent pas bonheur non plus, c’est vrai. Ils sont comme les autres hommes… Ah bien ! tu verras, lorsque cet abbé sera là, si sa soutane me fait peur !” » (Chapitre I)

Émile Zola

Émile Zola (1840-1902) was a French novelist, journalist, and playwright. Born in Paris to a French mother and Italian father, Zola was raised in Aix-en-Provence. At 18, Zola moved back to Paris, where he befriended Paul Cézanne and began his writing career. During this early period, Zola worked as a clerk for a publisher while writing literary and art reviews as well as political journalism for local newspapers. Following the success of his novel Thérèse Raquin (1867), Zola began a series of twenty novels known as Les Rougon-Macquart, a sprawling collection following the fates of a single family living under the Second Empire of Napoleon III. Zola’s work earned him a reputation as a leading figure in literary naturalism, a style noted for its rejection of Romanticism in favor of detachment, rationalism, and social commentary. Following the infamous Dreyfus affair of 1894, in which a French-Jewish artillery officer was falsely convicted of spying for the German Embassy, Zola wrote a scathing open letter to French President Félix Faure accusing the government and military of antisemitism and obstruction of justice. Having sacrificed his reputation as a writer and intellectual, Zola helped reverse public opinion on the affair, placing pressure on the government that led to Dreyfus’ full exoneration in 1906. Nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1901 and 1902, Zola is considered one of the most influential and talented writers in French history.
