Synopsis

Im Zentrum des letzten Romans aus Emile Zolas (1840-1902) Romanzyklus der Rougon Macquart steht der bereits ältere Arzt Pascal Rougon und seine erst 24 Jahre alte Nichte Clotilde. Während Clotilde unbeirrt gläubig ist, versteht sich Pascal als strenger Rationalist. Als Clotilde den gemeinsamen Sohn zur Welt bringt, lebt Pascal bereits nicht mehr. Doch die Geburt verändert die junge Frau: Geprägt von der weiblichen Erfahrung der Schwangerschaft und Geburt gelangt sie zu einer erneuerten, rationalistischen Sicht der Welt.

About this title

About the Author:

?mile 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 ? Ninon, Les Myst?res de Marseille, and Th?r?se 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. ?mile Zola is buried in the Panth?on alongside other esteemed literary figures Victor Hugo and Alexandre Dumas.
