Info created by Émile Zola - uploaded by Schutz - nominated by mbz1 -- Mbz1 (talk) 01:49, 9 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Info This introduction was written by user:Durova for the nomination on English Wikipedia:
"This might qualify as the most famous newspaper editorial of all time: Emile Zola was France's leading writer, the w:Dreyfus Affair was its most famous scandal, and Zola published this public condemnation of the government in order to force his own prosecution for libel, so that he could raise evidence in defense of Dreyfus that had been suppressed from Dreyfus's case. Sounds convoluted? It was, but it wasn't a passing scandal either; the affair was a landmark in the history of antisemitism and Zionism. High resolution legible file; English translation available at Wikisource. The headline reads I accuse...! Letter to the president of the republic from Emile Zola"
Info The image is FP on English and Turkish Wikipedias

Support as I see it, one purpose of FP is to help wikipedias of all language to find high quality things they may want to use. This seems high-quality, and, if not traditionally pictoral, is certinly an important part of history and literature. A primary document, no less.
