A Zola Dictionary is a comprehensive reference book authored by J. G. Patterson that provides readers with a detailed guide to the works of Emile Zola, a French novelist, playwright, and journalist. The book features an alphabetical listing of all the characters, places, and events in Zola's novels, along with a brief summary of each entry. The dictionary also includes a detailed biography of Zola, providing readers with an insight into the writer's life and times. The book is an invaluable resource for students, scholars, and anyone interested in the works of Emile Zola. It is a must-read for anyone who wants to gain a deeper understanding of Zola's literary works, including his famous series of novels, Les Rougon-Macquart. Overall, A Zola Dictionary is a well-researched and informative book that provides a comprehensive overview of one of the most influential writers of the 19th century.Serge Mouret, the younger son of Francois Mouret (see La Conquete de Plassans), was ordained to the priesthood and appointed cure of Les Artaud, a squalid village in Provence, to whose degenerate inhabitants he ministered with small encouragement. He had inherited the family taint of the Rougon-Macquarts, which in him took the same form as in the case of his mother--a morbid religious enthusiasm bordering on hysteria. Brain fever followed, and bodily recovery left the priest without a mental past. Dr. Pascal Rougon, his uncle, hoping to save his reason, removed him from his accustomed surroundings and left him at the Paradou, the neglected demesne of a ruined mansion-house near Les Artaud, where he was nursed by Albine, niece of the caretaker.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
