Ein Blatt Liebe Emile Zola – Im achten Band der Rougon-Macquard-Reihe, ‘Ein Blatt Liebe’, erhalten wir die Geschichte der Helene Mouret, einer Tochter Ursula Macquarts. Die Ursula war mit dem Hutmacher Mouret verheiratet. Früh verwitwet zieht Helene mit ihrem Töchterchen Jeanne nach Paris. Das Kind ist kränklich und steht in Behandlung des verheirateten Arztes Deberle, der in zärtliche Beziehungen zur Mutter des Kindes tritt. Diese Liebe ist es, die uns der Dichter schildert. Jeanne stirbt an der Schwindsucht, und Helene reicht Herrn Rambaud, einem Manne ihres Bekanntenkreises, die Hand zum zweiten Ehebunde. Der Rahmen dieser Herzensgeschichte ist Paris, und man darf kühn behaupten, daß solch meisterhafte Schilderungen der Seinestadt, wie sie dieses Buch enthält, kaum wieder anzutreffen sind.
เกี่ยวกับผู้แต่ง
More than half of Zola’s novels were part of a set of 20 books collectively known as Les Rougon-Macquart. Unlike Balzac who in the midst of his literary career resynthesized his work into La Comédie Humaine, Zola from the start at the age of 28 had thought of the complete layout of the series. Set in France’s Second Empire, the series traces the ‘environmental’ influences of violence, alcohol and prostitution which became more prevalent during the second wave of the Industrial Revolution. The series examines two branches of a family: the respectable (that is, legitimate) Rougons and the disreputable (illegitimate) Macquarts for five generations.As he described his plans for the series, ‘I want to portray, at the outset of a century of liberty and truth, a family that cannot restrain itself in its rush to possess all the good things that progress is making available and is derailed by its own momentum, the fatal convulsions that accompany the birth of a new world.’Although Zola and Cézanne were friends from childhood, they broke in later life over Zola’s fictionalized depiction of Cézanne and the Bohemian life of painters in his novel L’uvre (The Masterpiece, 1886).From 1877 with the publication of L’Assommoir, Émile Zola became wealthy, he was better paid than Victor Hugo, for example. He became a figurehead among the literary bourgeoisie and organized cultural dinners with Guy de Maupassant, Joris-Karl Huysmans and other writers at his luxurious villa in Medan near Paris after 1880. Germinal in 1885, then the three ‘cities’, Lourdes in 1894, Rome in 1896 and Paris in 1897, established Zola as a successful author.The self-proclaimed leader of French naturalism, Zola’s works inspired operas such as those of Gustave Charpentier, notably Louise in the 1890s. His works, inspired by the concepts of heredity (Claude Bernard), social manichaeism and idealistic socialism, resonate with those of Nadar, Manet and subsequently Flaubert.
