ABOUT THIS EPISODE
THE DREYFUS AFFAIR: DENIED BY A PRESIDENT
Felix Faure became President of the Republic in January 1895, just weeks after Alfred Dreyfus was convicted. He was elected because he was seen as safe and predictable. He was not a reformer. He was not interested in challenging institutions. He was not associated with any major scandals, yet at least.
