A couple of the things that Zola pointed out:
- the graphologists' assertion was that "the lack (!) of resemblance between Dreyfus' writing and that of the names list was "proof" that Dreyfus had somehow managed to forge his own handwriting
- the evidence clearly showed that the names list came from an infantry officer, not an artillery officer such as Dreyfus
- proof was provided that a Major Esterhazy had passed the names list to the Germans; it had been ignored, because his guilt would have implicated gross negligence at the General Staff office
- Dreyfus was denied the right to examine the documentary evidence against him.

It's always "a" when it is before a word that does not start with a letter that is a vowel or sounds like a vowel. Therefore, the correct grammar is "a historical background." Actually, the above is not entirely correct. It is quite acceptable to use "an" in front of a word beginning with the letter 'h' when the word is not stressed on the first syllable. So, for example, it is quite acceptable to say "an historical background" or "an heroic feat", but it is not correct to say "an heritage".
