ZOLA Émile (1840-1902). - Lot 257
ZOLA Émile (1840-1902). L.A. (draft), Paris June 3, 1892, to a "dear colleague" [Alexandre DUMAS fils]; 2 pages in-8. Relating to the academic election of the day before [Zola had 10 votes in the first round, against 10 for Ferdinand Brunetière and 13 for Ernest Lavisse, who won largely in the second round]. "It is obviously there, the core, and thanks to you. I did not expect these ten votes []. These ten votes are good in that they seriously establish the candidacy for the future. We will have to count on them. And let us hope that your great support and the circumstances will do the rest. I still want your vote, because it will be decisive; but I don't want your chair, I will lose my strength and my chance.
