About the Book

Les Soirees de Medan est un recueil collectif de six nouvelles, publie le 15 avril 1880 chez Georges Charpentier editeur a Paris, reunissant Emile Zola, Guy de Maupassant, J.-K. Huysmans, Henry Ceard, Leon Hennique et Paul Alexis. Selon Hennique (dans la preface de l'edition du cinquantenaire - publie chez Fasquelle en 1930 - des Soirees de Medan), l'idee et le nom meme du recueil auraient germe au cours d'un repas hivernal dans l'appartement parisien de Zola, ce jour-la entoure de Hennique, Guy de Maupassant, Huysmans, Ceard et Alexis, lorsqu'Emile Zola, apres l'evocation de divers souvenirs respectifs des six amis relatifs a la guerre de 1870, emit l'idee d'ecrire un volume de nouvelles a six mains, tandis que Ceard lancait immediatement la proposition du titre, sans doute en souvenir de bons moments passes, a la belle saison, dans la propriete de Zola a Medan (Yvelines). Toutefois, des 1908, Ceard, dans un article coecrit par Jean de Caldain sur Huysmans, donnait une version sensiblement differente, affirme que l'initiative du recueil commun emanerait en realite de Hennique, qui aurait propose de placer cette publication sous le patronage de Zola, en raison de sa plus grande notoriete. Les six ecrivains furent alors periodiquement qualifies de groupe de Medan, ce qui faisait implicitement reference a d'autres diners litteraires anterieurs, tels le diner Flaubert (egalement appele diner des Cinq ), qui regroupa regulierement, de 1874 a 1880, Gustave Flaubert, Ivan Tourgueniev, Edmond de Goncourt, Alphonse Daudet et Emile Zola. Le groupe de Medan commenca ses reunions des 1876 et compta meme un temps un septieme membre, Octave Mirbeau, que son eloignement de Paris, en 1877, apres sa nomination comme sous-prefet de Saint-Girons (Ariege), freina dans de probables collaborations futures."
