| Summary: | The article proposes a contemporary reflection on Hegel’s famous quote “the real is the rational and
the rational is the real” that tradition has often misinterpreted. Inspired by a new reading by JeanFrançois Kervégan (which translates the sentence “the rational will become effective/real and the
real/effective will become rational”), the article focuses on one of the possible illustrations of this
Hegelian thesis. Émile Zola’s novel The Work consists of a very interesting analysis of the notions of
reality, effectiveness and rationality that the author applies to both literature and visual arts. Behind
the controversies of Pierre Sandoz and Claude Lantier, it is possible to discern all the debates that
opposed Émile Zola to his friend Paul Cézanne. |
