Produktbeschreibung
With the novel, Zola wanted to depict the decline of society through the promiscuous hustle and bustle of noble society, which is not limited to its own circles, but also includes prostitutes from the street, whose behavior differs in no way from that of married women. Zola showed not only the depravity and decadence of his protagonist, but also that of the upper class of society. The former street whore gains social prestige - talentless, but has a flawless body - by posing naked on stage in the role of "blond Venus". Zola describes the audience as a mixture of literary Paris, the financial world, journalists and writers, stock market people who were accompanied by women from the demimonde rather than decent women. The men come to the theater because they wanted to see the cocotte Nana on stage - after all, almost everyone present already knows her in his / her way. Émile Édouard Charles Antoine Zola (1840-1902) was a French writer and journalist. Zola is considered one of the great French novelists of the 19th century and a leading figure and founder of the pan-European literary movement of naWturalism. At the same time he was a very active journalist who took part in political life in a moderately left-wing position
Autorenporträt
French author, journalist, dramatist, and founder of the naturalism literary movement, Émile Zola also wrote plays. He played a significant role in both Alfred Dreyfus' exoneration and the political liberalisation of France. Dreyfus had been wrongfully charged and imprisoned as an army commander. In 1901 and 1902, Zola was a candidate for the Nobel Prize in Literature. Zola was born in Paris on April 2, 1840, to François Zola and Émile Aubert. Before becoming a writer, he was a law student who twice failed the baccalaureate. In his formative years, Zola produced a large number of short stories, essays, plays, and novels. Hachette fired Zola from his position as director of the Paris Opera in 1864 after the release of his scandalous autobiographical book La Confession de Claude (1865), which attracted the attention of the authorities. Zola became a citizen of France in 1862. He met the seamstress Éléonore-Alexandrine Meley, also known as Gabrielle, in 1865, and she eventually became his mistress. On September 29, 1902, Francois Zola died from carbon monoxide poisoning brought on by a poorly ventilated chimney. At the time of his death, he was working on the sequel to his recently published book Vérité, which is about the Dreyfus trial.
