Sinopsis

In "Emile Zola," William Dean Howells delves into the life and works of the eminent French novelist, revealing the intricate narrative style and social realism that characterized Zola's contributions to literature. Howells employs a critical lens, discussing Zola's innovative techniques, such as his meticulous descriptions and the use of the naturalist approach, which sought to depict life with unflinching honesty. The text situates Zola's literary efforts against the backdrop of 19th-century France, a period marked by political upheaval and industrialization, exploring how these factors influenced Zola's thematic concerns, such as class struggle and the human condition. William Dean Howells (1837-1920), a prominent American novelist and critic, was a staunch advocate for realism in literature, making him particularly suited to explore Zola's naturalist methods. Howells himself was deeply engaged in the literary movements of his time, and his critiques often mirrored the socio-political themes present in Zola's work. This connection to both American and European literary traditions informed Howells' appreciation for Zola, as he recognized similar struggles in the American literary landscape. "Emile Zola" is recommended for readers seeking an in-depth understanding of Zola's literary heritage and its influence on modern prose. Howells' analysis not only illuminates Zola's techniques but also invites the reader to consider the broader implications of realism in literature. This scholarly exploration is essential for anyone interested in the interplay between art and society during a transformative era in literary history.

    Justice in Dealing with Others -...

    Justice is a fundamental concept that has shaped human societies for centuries. It refers to the principles of fairness, equality, and moral rightness that govern interactions between individuals, communities, and institutions. In its broadest sense, justice is about ensuring that everyone is treated with dignity, respect, and fairness, regardless of their background, status, or circumstances. It encompasses a wide range of areas, including law, ethics, politics, and social relationships, all of which are vital to creating a balanced and harmonious society. 
    The importance of justice cannot be overstated. Without it, societies risk descending into chaos and inequality. History provides numerous examples of injustice, from oppressive regimes to discriminatory practices, that have caused harm to individuals and groups. At its core, justice aims to prevent harm and ensure that people receive what they are due – whether that be rights, resources, or recognition. It seeks to promote fairness, resolve disputes, and protect the vulnerable, while holding individuals accountable for their actions. 
    Justice is not a one-size-fits-all concept. It is influenced by various philosophical and cultural perspectives that shape how it is understood and applied. In Western thought, justice has often been closely tied to concepts such as the rule of law, individual rights, and democratic governance. In other cultures, justice may be framed through the lens of collective responsibility, harmony, or social roles. These differing perspectives reflect the complexity of justice as a concept and the challenges in applying it universally.

    Delphine was 4 years old when her hell began.
    "We always promised each other, my Mom and I, that we would not talk about it anymore, that it was over. Except that after this promise, which I never broke, I had many bad times to go through. I was always trying to find out why I felt so bad about myself, why the fear of dying came over me again, as in childhood. I gradually became aware that this feeling of uneasiness probably came from the drifting in and out of hospitals that I had experienced from a very young age, from the way my mother manipulated me, from all this sadness, and these fears, all these emotions had been so well repressed for years. My mind doesn't want to remember but my body hasn't forgotten anything and was letting me know."
