Dès sa parution, en 1856, le premier grand roman de Zola excède la réalité, le réalisme et même le naturalisme dont précisément "Thérèse Raquin" ouvre les portes. Il se hausse au fantastique sans quitter le clinique et c'est précisément ce qui empoigne l'auditeur d'aujourd'hui devant ce très noir tableau des passions humaines.

Un drame de la petite bourgeoisie à l'origine du naturalisme.

Il volume è il risultato di due viaggi che lo scrittore compì a Lourdes nel 1891-92, dove annotò tutto ciò che vedeva. Il resoconto della descrizione puntuale dei malati, dei luoghi, alternati alla storia del luogo insieme allo sfruttamento economico della fede dei pellegrini si unisce alla lotta interiore del protagonista, Pietro, diventato sacerdote senza convinzione, che vorrebbe credere ma resta tormentato dai dubbi. Inevitabile pensare che il suo conflitto interiore sia stato lo stesso dell'autore.

Doctor Pascal is the final volume in Zola's monumental Rougon-Macquart series of novels. It is, in Zola's own words, both a summary and a conclusion of all his work. Shortly after the fall of the Second Empire in the town of Plassans in torrid, stormy Provence, Dr Pascal Rougon is nearing retirement from his general practice, but is still deeply interested in ground-breaking research in the new science of heredity, in which he is a prominent authority. He wants to know what causes the creation of such widely varying types of people from the same parents and family lines. What better source ...
