Comments

Émile Zola był francuskim pisarzem i dziennikarzem (1840-1902).

Uważany za lidera naturalizmu, jest jednym z najpopularniejszych francuskich powieściopisarzy i jednym z najczęściej publikowanych, tłumaczonych i komentowanych na świecie.

Zola sportretował społeczeństwo Drugiego Cesarstwa w całej jego różnorodności, podkreślając jego surowość wobec robotników (Germinal, 1885).

Moneta upamiętnia setną rocznicę wydania "Germinalu".

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

Émile Zola est un écrivain et journaliste français (1840-1902).

Considéré comme le chef de file du naturalisme, c'est l'un des romanciers français les plus populaires et l'un des plus publiés, traduits et commentés dans le monde entier.

Zola peint la société du second Empire dans sa diversité, mettant en évidence sa dureté envers les ouvriers (Germinal, 1885).

Cette pièce commémore le centenaire de la publication de “GERMINAL”
