Émile ZOLA, Écrivain et journaliste (Paris 1840-1902) - Lot 568
Émile ZOLA, Écrivain et journaliste (Paris 1840-1902) Autograph letter signed "Émile ZOLA" from MEDAN (Yvelines) on August 1st 1899, to the Italian journalist and columnist Jacopo CAPONI (1832-1909). 1p in-8°. qqs freckles. "My dear CAPONI. Here is the recommendation you are asking me for Mr. BELEREDI. It is useless to go around and recommend to the Correspondent of "LA TRIBUNA" (Italian newspaper) to show it only to the addressee. Yours sincerely." The Italian newspaper "LA TRIBUNA" published the ROUGON-MACQUART translation in serial form. When in September 1892 Emile Zola and his wife Alexandrine visited Italy for the first time, they were received with great pomp by Count BERTOLELLI, Administrator of "LA TRIBUNA". During the DREYFUS Affair, "LA TRIBUNA" supports Émile ZOLA and of course Alfred DREYFUS. ZOLA returned from exile in June 1899 at the time of the decision of the revision of the DREYFUS trial. ZOLA writes here to CAPONI in order to recommend Mr. BELEREDI to the editorial staff of "LA TRIBUNA". BELEREDI will be the Italian correspondent of the newspaper which covered the DREYFUS trial in Rennes. BELEREDI appears in the photo of the foreign correspondents of the Rennes Trial published in the English newspaper "Illustrated London News" in September 1899.
