Additional Reading
Louis Begley, Why the Dreyfus Affair Matters (2009), a compelling account of the affair, notes similarities between the treatment of Dreyfus and that of suspected terrorists at the turn of the 21st century. Frederick Brown, For the Soul of France: Culture Wars in the Age of Dreyfus, 1st ed. (2010), portrays the affair as a manifestation of the division of late 19th-century France into two cultural factions—one secular and moderate, the other Roman Catholic and reactionary. Ruth Harris, Dreyfus: Politics, Emotion, and the Scandal of the Century (also published as The Man on Devil’s Island: Dreyfus and the Affair That Divided France, 2010), counters that Dreyfusards and anti-Dreyfusards were not always strictly separated into liberal and conservative camps.
