El jorobado de Notre Dame

Autor: Victor Hugo

Número de Páginas: 548

En el París del siglo XV, con sus sombrías callejuelas pobladas por desheredados de la fortuna y espíritus atormentados, la gitana Esmeralda, que predice el porvenir y atrae fatalmente a los hombres, es acusada injustamente de la muerte de su amado y condenada al patíbulo. Pero Quasimodo, campanero de Notre Dame, hombre de fuerza hercúlea y horrible fealdad, esconde un corazón sensible y la salva resguardándola en la catedral. Una auténtica historia de amor. Publicada originalmente como Nuestra Señora de París, es ésta una historia que, a través de la lectura, pero también del cine e incluso de los dibujos animados, ha llegado al corazón de muchas generaciones. De marcado carácter romántico, a caballo entre la novela histórica y la ficción literaria, Víctor Hugo nos regala a tres personajes de leyenda: Esmeralda, mujer fatal; Frollo, archidiácono maldito, y Quasimodo, jorobado y tuerto, de gran corazón. Y, como telón de fondo, una imponente catedral. Sin duda, una joya insoslayable de la literatura de todos los tiempos. «En El jorobado de Notre Dame aparecen por primera [...] la arquitectura enigmática, los personajes perversos, el pasado magnífico de una...

En la París medieval, bajo las colosales torres de su símbolo supremo, la Catedral de Notre-Dame, se ambienta esta novela romántica con un profundo sentido de ironía trágica. Aquí se entrelaza la inquietante historia de varios personajes atrapados en una red de obsesión fatal: Quasimodo, un deforme jorobado de fuerza hercúlea y corazón sensible, le debe la vida al sacerdote Claude Frollo, quien a su vez es torturado y envilecido por una pasión insana hacia Esmeralda, una hermosa bailarina gitana. Ella, por su parte, está perdidamente enamorada de un apuesto capitán muy corto de miras; mas por un acto desinteresado de bondad se gana la devoción eterna del jorobado. En esta obra maestra, junto a las figuras centrales se mueve un desfile de personajes pintorescos, incluido el submundo de mendigos y rufianes cuyo asalto a la Catedral ha pasado a la historia como una de las escenificaciones más espectaculares de la literatura universal.

The Hunchback of Notre-Dame

Autor: Victor Hugo

Número de Páginas: 708

The setting of this extraordinary historical novel is medieval Paris: a city of vividly intermingled beauty and grotesquerie, surging with violent life under the twin towers of its greatest structure and supreme symbol, the cathedral of Notre-Dame. Against this background, Victor Hugo unfolds the haunting drama of Quasimodo, the hunchback; Esmeralda, the gypsy dancer; and Claude Frollo, the priest tortured by the specter of his own damnation. Shaped by a profound sense of tragic irony, it is a work that gives full play to the author's brilliant historical imagination and his remarkable powers of description. Whether depicting the frenzy of a brutish mob or the agony of a solitary soul, whether capturing a blaze of sunlight or dungeon darkness, Victor Hugo's art never fails in its quest for the immediacy of felt experience.

Hidden deep within the confines of Notre Dame, Quasimodo lives in solitude, shunned by the outside world because of his hideous appearance. His only joy is the appearance of a woman by the name of Esmerelda who takes pity on him because of his circumstances. Esmerelda, after attracting unwanted attention from members of the Church finds herself in a battle for her life, and seemingly only Quasimodo, the man she has taken pity on can save her.A mad priest, a vagabond playwright, a social-climbing soldier, and a deformed bell-ringer all are captivated by a gypsy girl's beauty and charm. Two of them will betray her, but the others will remain loyal, even in the shadow of the gallows. These outlaws find sanctuary within the walls of medieval Paris' greatest monument, the grand Cathedral of Notre Dame."What a beautiful thing Notre-Dame is!" declared Gustave Flaubert of Victor Hugo's 1837 novel. Originally published as Notre-Dame de Paris (Our Lady of Paris), it was conceived as a story of the cathedral itself, which functioned as the passionate heart of fifteenth-century city life. But Hugo's human drama rivals the Gothic masterpiece for dominance. Drawn with humor and compassion, his...

More commonly known as "The Hunchback of Notre-Dame", Victor Hugo's Romantic novel of dark passions and unrequited love, "Notre-Dame de Paris", is translated with an introduction by John Sturrock in "Penguin Classics". In the vaulted Gothic towers of Notre-Dame Cathedral lives Quasimodo, the hunchbacked bellringer. Mocked and shunned for his appearance, he is pitied only by Esmerelda, a beautiful gypsy dancer to whom he becomes completely devoted. Esmerelda, however, has also attracted the attention of the sinister archdeacon Claude Frollo, and when she rejects his lecherous approaches, Frollo hatches a plot to destroy her, that only Quasimodo can prevent. Victor Hugo's sensational, evocative novel brings life to the medieval Paris he loved, and mourns its passing in one of the greatest historical romances of the nineteenth century. John Sturrock's clear, contemporary translation is accompanied by an introduction discussing it as a passionate novel of ideas, written in defence of Gothic architecture and of a burgeoning democracy, and demonstrating that an ugly exterior can conceal moral beauty.

A Paris, en 1482. La jeune et jolie bohémienne Esméralda chante et danse sur le parvis de la cathédrale Notre-Dame, envoûtant Quasimodo, le sonneur de cloches qui vit en haut de l'édifice et le prêtre Frollo qui a remis sa vie entre les mains de Dieu. Découvrant des sentiments qui lui étaient jusqu'à alors inconnus, Frollo demande à Quasimodo d'enlever Esméralda. Mais les archers commandés par le capitaine Phoebus de Châteaupers arrivent à temps pour secourir la bohémienne. Notre-Dame de Paris est sans doute l'un des plus grands chefs d'oeuvre de la littérature française, paru pour la première fois en 1831, et popularisé à la fin du siècle dernier par l'adaptation en film d'animation par les studios Disney (Le Bossu de Notre-Dame en 1996) et la comédie musicale découverte en 1998. Roman d'amour, roman historique, Notre-Dame de Paris est aussi un roman politique. Victor Hugo dénonce la peine de mort et engage une réflexion sur la justice de l'époque qui reste très arbitraire. Les personnages principaux (Quasimodo, Esméralda, Frollo) nous entraînent dans un récit absolument saisissant, passionnant et terriblement dramatique.

The Hunchback of Notre Dame (French: Notre-Dame de Paris) is an 1831 French novel written by Victor Hugo. It is set in 1482 in Paris, in and around the cathedral of Notre Dame de Paris. The book tells the story of a poor barefoot Gypsy girl (La Esmeralda) and a misshapen bell-ringer (Quasimodo) who was raised by the Archdeacon (Claude Frollo). The book was written as a statement to preserve the Notre Dame cathedral and not to 'modernize' it, as Hugo was thoroughly against this.The story begins during the Renaissance in 1482, the day of the Festival of Fools in Paris. Quasimodo, the deformed bell ringer, is introduced by his crowning as Pope of Fools.Esm�ralda, a beautiful 16-year-old gypsy with a kind and generous heart, captures the hearts of many men but especially Quasimodo's adopted father, Claude Frollo.

Victor Hugo's "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" is an evocative exploration of love, isolation, and the complexities of societal judgment, set against the backdrop of 15th-century Paris. The narrative is rich in descriptive detail, combining gothic elements with profound psychological depth, as it navigates the intertwining lives of its unforgettable characters—most notably, the disfigured bell-ringer Quasimodo and the exquisite Esmeralda. Hugo masterfully captures the architectural grandeur of Notre Dame itself, employing it as a symbol of human aspiration and the tragic consequences of social estrangement. Victor Hugo, a leading figure in the Romantic movement, drew upon his deep empathy for the marginalized and oppressed to craft this timeless tale. His own experiences of political exile, as well as his keen interest in the plight of the poor and the downcast in society, profoundly influenced his writing. By examining themes of beauty and monstrosity, Hugo invites readers to reflect on their own judgments of others, a significant ethos that shaped his literary career. I highly recommend "The Hunchback of Notre Dame (Illustrated)" not only for its intricate storytelling and...
