He loved power for power's sake...He was without question the greatest of the Rougons.'His Excellency Eugène Rougon (1876) is the sixth novel in Zola's twenty-volume Rougon-Macquart cycle. A political novel set in the corridors of power and in the upper échelons of French Second Empire society,including the Imperial court,it focuses on the fluctuating fortunes of the authoritarian Eugène Rougon,the'vice-Emperor'. But it is more than just a chronicle. It plunges the reader into the essential dynamics of the political: the rivalries,the scheming,thejockeying for position,the ups and downs,the play of interests,the lobbying and gossip,the patronage and string-pulling,the bribery and blackmail,and,especially,the manipulation of language for political purposes. The novel's themes-especially its treatment of political discourse-have remarkable contemporaryresonance. His Excellency Eugène Rougon is about politics everywhere.

MEDIA REVIEWS

It is easy to savor certain installments in isolation (...) But to read through the Rougon-Macquart in Oxford's fine new translations - fourteen of the twenty volumes retranslated since 2000,seven in the last four years - is to see the mosaic that only Zola's full scheme makes possible.Im going to celebrate the 21st century with a re-read of His Excellency Eugène Rougon.
