Londres a toujours eu la r\u00e9putation d\u2019accueillir les exil\u00e9s internationaux g\u00eanants. Un de ces exil\u00e9s \u00e9tait l’\u00e9crivain fran\u00e7ais \u00c9mile Zola, arriv\u00e9 \u00e0 la gare Victoria le 19 juillet 1898 sans aucun bagage ni connaissance de la langue anglaise. Il passa sa premi\u00e8re nuit \u00e0 l’h\u00f4tel Grosvenor et d\u00e9m\u00e9nagea plus tard dans le plus modeste Queen’s Hotel de Norwood.<\/p>\n

J’y suis all\u00e9 r\u00e9cemment pour prendre des photos et je fus heureux de voir qu’il y avait une plaque bleue en sa m\u00e9moire, m\u00eame si elle \u00e9tait obscurcie par des \u00e9chafaudages car l’h\u00f4tel \u00e9tait en r\u00e9novation.<\/p>\n

La cause de la fuite de Zola de sa France natale \u00e9tait la fameuse affaire Dreyfus. Un officier de l’arm\u00e9e fran\u00e7aise Alfred Dreyfus avait \u00e9t\u00e9 condamn\u00e9 \u00e0 la r\u00e9clusion \u00e0 perp\u00e9tuit\u00e9 sur l’\u00cele du Diable pour avoir transmis des secrets \u00e0 l’Allemagne.<\/p>\n

Un autre officier Georges Picquart avait produit des preuves qui montraient que le vrai coupable \u00e9tait Ferdinand Esterhazy mais, comme Dreyfus \u00e9tait juif, l’antis\u00e9mitisme l’emporta.<\/p>\n

C’est Zola qui fut condamn\u00e9 \u00e0 un an de prison et qui se vit confisquer sa L\u00e9gion d’honneur pour avoir attaqu\u00e9 l’institution militaire dans le c\u00e9l\u00e8bre article \u00abJ’Accuse! \u00bb Plut\u00f4t que d’aller en prison, Zola s\u2019enfuit \u00e0 Londres et y passa pr\u00e8s d’un an avant de retourner dans sa France natale.<\/p>\n

Dans le sud de Londres, \u00c9mile Zola \u00e9crivit l’essentiel du livre F\u00e9condit\u00e9 et une nouvelle, Angeline, inspir\u00e9e d’un conte local qu’il transposa en France. Il re\u00e7ut la visite d’amis et de sympathisants ainsi que de sa femme et de sa ma\u00eetresse.<\/p>\n

Zola avait une vie amoureuse compliqu\u00e9e mais il restait fid\u00e8le \u00e0 la fois \u00e0 son \u00e9pouse Alexandrine, qui \u00e9tait sans enfant, et \u00e0 sa ma\u00eetresse Jeanne, avec qui il eut deux enfants.<\/p>\n

\u00c0 Londres il s’ adonna \u00e0 son passe-temps de la photographie et se familiarisa progressivement avec la langue bien qu’il ne put jamais supporter notre cuisine. (Un Fran\u00e7ais qui critique la cuisine anglaise? Incroyable!)<\/p>\n

Finalement, l’innocence de Dreyfus devint \u00e9vidente aux yeux de tous sauf les plus intransigeants et Zola retourna en France o\u00f9 il fut graci\u00e9. Cependant, il ne fut enti\u00e8rement disculp\u00e9 qu’en 1906, quatre ans apr\u00e8s sa mort par empoisonnement au monoxyde de carbone.<\/p>\n

La question de savoir si sa mort \u00e9tait un accident ou un meurtre reste ouverte, mais en 1953 le journal fran\u00e7ais Lib\u00e9ration publia le compte rendu d’un aveu \u00e9crit sur un lit de mort qui affirmait que la chemin\u00e9e de sa maison avait \u00e9t\u00e9 bloqu\u00e9e par un anti-Dreyfusard qui travaillait sur le toit \u00e0 l’\u00e9poque.<\/p>\n

Il n\u2019est pas impossible que \u00c9mile Zola ait pay\u00e9 de sa vie pour avoir d\u00e9fendu un innocent.<\/p>\n

On vous conseille de lire le livre de Michael Rosen \u00abLa disparition d’\u00c9mile Zola\u00bb pour en savoir plus sur Zola \u00e0 Londres, et le roman de Robert Harris \u00abUn officier et un Espion\u00bb pour l’histoire du r\u00f4le de Picquart dans l’affaire Dreyfus.<\/p>\n
