"The Trial of Emile Zola: containing M. Zola's letter to President Faure relating to the Dreyfus case..." by Émile Zola, is a historical record from the late 1800s that tells the story of Emile Zola's own trial. His trial stemmed from his public letter, "J'Accuse," and offers insights into the Dreyfus Affair, highlighting the themes of anti-Semitism, fairness, and the reputation of the French legal system. Zola's letter defended Alfred Dreyfus, a Jewish officer wrongly accused, and accused the military of injustice. This bold move led to Zola being charged with libel.
