A statue of Alfred Dreyfus, the Jewish captain accused of treason and demoted in 1895 by French anti-Semitic army officers, was unveiled last week in Paris by Minister of Culture Jack Lang.
It is the first statue in France dedicated to the young officer who inspired Emile Zola to write his famous “J’Accuse.”
The 10-foot high bronze statue has been erected in the gardens of the Tuilleries, the former Louvre Royal Palace.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
