| Publisher Description: Doctor Pascal By Emile Zola Doctor Pascal (orig. French Le Docteur Pascal) is the twentieth and final novel of the Rougon-Macquart series by mile Zola, first published in June 1893 by Charpentier. Pascal, a physician in Plassans for 30 years, has spent his life cataloging and chronicling the lives of his family based on his theories of heredity. Pascal believes that everyone's physical and mental health and development can be classified based on the interplay between innateness and heredity. Using his own family as a case study, Pascal classifies the 30 descendants of his grandmother Adela de Fouque (Tante Dide) based on this model. |
