Zola Emile
STORIES FOR NINON . Translated by Edward Vizetelly
London: William Heinemann 1895. Octavo pp. i-iv v-vi vii-viii 1 2-344 14 pages of publisher's ads at rear inserted frontispiece with portrait of Zola after a lithographic drawing by Will Rothenstein original decorated burgundy cloth front and spine panels stamped in gold Heinemann monogram stamped in blind on rear panel all edges untrimmed cream endpapers. First edition. This translation combines material from Zola's first book CONTES A NINON 1864 and a sequel of sorts NOUVEAUX CONTES A NINON 1874. "Zola was infamous for his portrayals of the seamy side of human nature but here we see a wounded idealism -- perhaps the larval stage of his naturalism -- expressed in many cases via the fantastic. Of the novella and seven short stories from Part I all but three of the stories are fantastic in some way. 'Simplice' and 'The Love-Fairy' are fairly traditional fairy tales; 'Sister-of-the-Poor' is a devotional Catholic story about charity and miracles; 'The Adventures of Big Sidoine and Little Mederic' is an odd story about twins a big brawny one and little brainy one who become full-fledged giant and dwarf as the story progresses. 'Blood' is an antiwar vignette in which four comrades-in-arms narrate their horrific and phantasmagorical dreams all drenched in blood leading them to lay down their arms and desert. Part II has only one fantasy 'The Paradise of Cats' featuring a talking cat." - Robert Eldridge. Vizetelly was sentenced to three months in jail in 1889 for publishing some other works by Zola. Touch of rubbing to spine ends and corner tips some faint marks to front panel touch of darkening to spine a tight bright copy internally fine with mostly unopened pages. #117049 William Heinemann unknown books

Zola Emile
Lourdes. Rome. Paris.
Paris: Bibliotheque-Charpentier 1894 1896 1898 Three volumes. First editions. Presentation copies; all three volumes signed and inscribed by Zola on the half-titles to his friend Campbell Clarke. All three volumes uniformly bound for Clarke in quarter green calf over marbled boards original wrappers bound in with his initials to the spines and bookplates to front pastedowns. Some light rubbing and minor wear to the extremities; internally leaves a bit toned as usual else bright and very clean. Les Trois Villes or The Three Cities follows Emile Zola's fictional protagonist Abbe Pierre Froment on his travels through Lourdes Paris and Rome. The trilogy demonstrates Zola's characteristic Naturalism style -- as a literary movement Naturalism relied on empiricism and the scientific method rejecting romanticism through its requirement that characters are subject to the force of their circumstances. As it does in this trilogy Naturalism often manifests itself in the form of social commentary through fiction in this case focused on the three cities for which each of the books are named. Emile Zola 1840-1902 was a French novelist playwright and journalist noted for his contributions to the literary movement known as Naturalism and made famous by his 1877 novel L'Assommoir which lead to further success as a novelist. Aside from his literary contributions Zola is perhaps best known for his involvement in the so-called Dreyfus Affair and his iconic "J'Accuse.!" headline in the Parisian daily newspaper "L'Aurore" in 1898 accusing the French President of anti-Semitism and wrongful conviction of an innocent man. Campbell Clarke 1845-1902 was a British author and journalist who served as librarian at the British Museum before his tenure as an international correspondent for the Daily Telegraph. Clarke was stationed in a number of countries including Turkey Greece Germany Italy and France. Notably when Zola visited London in 1893 to present his speech "Anonymity in the Press" to the Institute of Journalists Clarke acted as a tour guide for Zola and led him on a personal tour through the National Gallery of England.

Paris; 1898: E. Bernard & Co. 7" x 10" 16 hand-colored watercolor prints by Lebouregoise which are seldom complete complete sets are in the British Library New York Public Library and the Lilly Library at Indiana University. Zola was the object of more caricatures than any other French writer in the 19th Century. It was not just his open view of the erotic but the blatantly scatological. Here the caricatures of Zola are both as an observer and participant of behavior outside normal society. Included are Pot-Bouille which shows him making a move on the cleaning lady a literary agent L'agent bowing before a wealthy publisher Zola at work with his reference dictionaries "dictionnarie L'Academie" around him La Docteur Pascal Zola as satyr in Le Bonheur du Pere Rougon and others. While these were intended for framing the set here is complete though the paper covers for the portfolio contain only the front and back covers detached.
