Émile Zola (1840-1902) was a prominent French novelist and journalist, best known for his role in the Dreyfus Affair and his contributions to the literary school of naturalism. Zola's involvement in the Dreyfus Affair, a notorious political scandal in France that centered around the wrongful conviction of Alfred Dreyfus, a Jewish French army officer, for treason, was pivotal. He famously defended Dreyfus in his open letter titled "J'Accuse…!" published in 1898 in the newspaper L'Aurore. This public letter accused the French government and military of anti-Semitism and judicial corruption, ultimately leading to Zola's conviction for libel, which he countered by fleeing to England.

While "Une Page d'Amour" is one of Zola's lesser-discussed works, it is part of his extensive Rougon-Macquart series, which explores the impact of environment and heredity on the lives of a fictional family during the Second French Empire. The novel, illustrated by H. Lebourgeois, focuses on the intimate aspects of love and infatuation, diverging from the socio-political themes prevalent in his more famous works like those addressing the Dreyfus Affair. Although "Une Page d'Amour" does not directly relate to the Dreyfus Affair, it showcases Zola's skill in character development and his deep understanding of human emotions, which also underpinned his passionate advocacy in the affair.

This introduction provides a comprehensive overview of Émile Zola's role in the Dreyfus Affair and his literary achievements, including his novel "Une Page d'Amour," highlighting his multifaceted contributions to French literature and society.
