Horinzontal and vertical folds due to mailing. Stain on verso not affecting the text. A most unusual invitation from the master of Naturalism who wishes to organize a luncheon with two eminent specialists in nervous diseases: ""Vous êtes bien aimable de m'inviter à déjeuner. Mais cela va vous faire perdre du temps et à moi aussi . pourquoi ne prendriez-vous pas un rendez-vous pour deux heures et demie par exemple avec M. Gille de la Tourette soit jeudi soit vendredi. Nous irions chez lui simplement ."" ""You are very kind to invite me to lunch. But this will make you lose time and me as well . why wouldn't you make an appointment for two-thirty for example with M. Gille de la Tourette either Thursday or Friday. We would go to his place simply ."" Zola relied on the expertise and scientific knowledge of Maurice de Fleury a student of Charcot to nourish his writing work on the Rougon-Macquart. De Fleury particularly shared publications from his library relating to heredity a subject at the heart of Zola's great social series of novels - most particularly the generational transmission of nervous diseases fits of violence and alcoholism. Maurice de Fleury is also famous for having made ten years after this letter a medico-psychological study of Zola himself through the prism of his working habits: ""De dix heures à midi Zola rédige encore - moins facilement et moins bien que pendant l'heure initiale - et c'est fini pour toute la journée il ne sera plus bon qu'à écrire des lettres. C'est là la puissance du plus puissant cerveau dans le domaine littéraire à la fin du siècle. Avec ce tout petit traintrain modeste trois heures par jour en deux séances cet homme dont l'attention est modique . trouve moyen de nous donner tous les dix mois un de ces livres où ne manquent ni la solidité de la charpente . ni rien de ce qui constitue la force créatrice le génie pour dire le mot"" ""From ten o'clock to noon Zola still writes - less easily and less well than during the initial hour - and it's finished for the whole day he will only be good for writing letters. This is the power of the most powerful brain in the literary domain at the end of the century. With this very modest little routine three hours a day in two sessions this man whose attention is modest . manages to give us every ten months one of those books which lack neither the solidity of the framework . nor anything that constitutes creative force genius to say the word"". ""Maurice de Fleury maintained close relations with Émile Zola and Joris-Karl Huysmans with whom he corresponded in the years 1880-1890. Fervent admirer of the author of the Rougon-Macquart Fleury advised Zola for ""Le Docteur Pascal"" 1893 and confided his admiration in an article in Le Figaro in 1896.

""My dear de Fleury I do believe I have found something for the Figaro supplement. Do come to chat between five and ten o'clock . If you were at the Théâtre Libre Saturday evening I think we could discuss it during an intermission which would save you the trouble of making a special trip ."". Fleury indeed held the medical column at Le Figaro - it is perhaps following this letter and their ""conversations"" that Fleury writes these lines in the supplement of October 31 1891: ""toute l'école naturaliste ayant fait de la médecine les médecins logiquement ont fait de la littérature"" ""the entire naturalist school having practiced medicine doctors logically have practiced literature"".

Rome Rome Dimanche 4 novembre 1894 13.20 x 20.50 cm une page sur un double feuillet et une enveloppe Autograph letter signed by Emile Zola addressed to Ugo Ojetti. One page written in black ink on the first page of a double sheet. Folding inherent to postal transmission. Envelope included. This letter was addressed by the father of naturalism to journalist Ugo Ojetti when he had just arrived in Rome: ""Monsieur je vais remercier infiniment le comte Joseph Primoli de l'amabilité qu'il a mise à vous adresser à moi et je serai très heureux de vous recevoir si vous voulez bien me venir voir le soir qu'il vous plaira à six heures."" ""Sir I wish to thank Count Joseph Primoli infinitely for the kindness he has shown in directing you to me and I shall be very happy to receive you if you would be so good as to come and see me any evening that suits you at six o'clock."" Having arrived a few days earlier in the eternal city to conduct research for Rome Emile Zola hoped to meet Count Joseph Primoli there. The latter was unfortunately in Paris but he sent him this young journalist from La Tribuna who would serve as his guide but also as secretary. The two men clearly got along well and Zola even authorized Ojetti to adapt an opera libretto from his famous Nana. The project would unfortunately never come to fruition. Joseph Napoléon Count Primoli 1851-1927 was the great-great-nephew of Napoleon Bonaparte. Very close to the imperial family under the Second Empire he subsequently remained faithful to the salon of his beloved aunt Princess Mathilde in her private mansion on rue de Berri. His refined and witty conversation worked wonders there and he met as a passionate bibliophile some of the greatest writers of his time: Gustave Flaubert Théophile Gautier the Goncourts and Guy de Maupassant. unknown
