About this ebook

J'accuse…! est le titre d'un article rédigé par Émile Zola lors de l'affaire Dreyfus et publié dans le journal L'Aurore du 13 janvier 1898 sous forme d'une lettre ouverte au Président de la République Félix Faure. Zola s'est appuyé en partie sur un dossier écrit en 1896 par l'écrivain Bernard Lazare.

J'accuse…! paraît deux jours après l'acquittement d'Esterhazy par le conseil de guerre (11 janvier), qui semble ruiner tous les espoirs nourris par les partisans d'une révision du procès condamnant Dreyfus. Zola y attaque nommément les généraux, les officiers responsables de l'erreur judiciaire ayant entraîné le procès et la condamnation, les experts en écritures coupables de « rapports mensongers et frauduleux. »

Emile Zola

Émile Zola was a French writer who is recognized as an exemplar of literary naturalism and for his contributions to the development of theatrical naturalism. Zola’s best-known literary works include the twenty-volume Les Rougon-Macquart, an epic work that examined the influences of violence, alcohol and prostitution on French society through the experiences of two families, the Rougons and the Macquarts. Other remarkable works by Zola include Contes à Ninon, Les Mystères de Marseille, and Thérèse Raquin. In addition to his literary contributions, Zola played a key role in the Dreyfus Affair of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. His newspaper article J’Accuse accused the highest levels of the French military and government of obstruction of justice and anti-semitism, for which he was convicted of libel in 1898. After a brief period of exile in England, Zola returned to France where he died in 1902. Émile Zola is buried in the Panthéon alongside other esteemed literary figures Victor Hugo and Alexandre Dumas.
