<p>Anatole France, a French writer of the end of the nineteenth Century, published Crainquebille at the very moment when Dreyfus, an officer wrongly sentenced to deportation, was pardoned by the President of the Republic. The Dreyfus case was an outstanding case, whereas the Crainquebille case was most insignificant. Yet the Crainquebille case enhances the vices of the French judiciary system on the whole.</p> <hr /><p>Anatole France, escritor franc&eacute;s de finales del siglo XIX, public&oacute; Crainqubille en el momento en que el Presidente de la Republica indult&oacute; a Dreyfus, un oficial sentenciado injustamente a la deportaci&oacute;n.
