책소개

"Les Misérables, v. 4 "The Idyll in the Rue Plumet and the Epic in the Rue St. Denis" by Victor Hugo is a novel written in the mid-19th century. Essentially a continuation of a larger narrative, it delves into the complexities of society and explores themes of love, sacrifice, and justice against the backdrop of revolutionary France. Key characters such as Jean Valjean and Marius Pontmercy navigate their struggles within an oppressive social system while confronting their personal destinies. At the start of this section, Hugo begins with a historical overview of the political climate in France during the early 1830s, outlining the tensions surrounding the monarchy of Louis Philippe and the revolution of July 1830. The narrative captures the sentiments of the population grappling with the aftermath of political change, including widespread unrest and revolutionary fervor bubbling beneath the surface. As essential characters prepare for action, it becomes evident that a storm of insurrection looms, with youths gathering to form revolutionary factions and creating a sense of urgency and impending conflict, while the struggles of love and loyalty intertwine with these broader societal issues.

저자(글) Victor Hugo

Victor-Marie Hugo, vicomte Hugo (1802~1885) was a French Romantic author, poet, essayist, playwright, journalist, human rights activist and politician.
His most famous works are the novels The Hunchback of Notre-Dame (1831) and Les Misérables (1862). In France, Hugo is renowned for his poetry collections, such as Les Contemplations and La Légende des siècles (The Legend of the Ages). Hugo was at the forefront of the Romantic literary movement with his play Cromwell and drama Hernani. His works have inspired music, both during his lifetime and after his death, including the opera Rigoletto and the musicals Les Misérables and Notre-Dame de Paris. He produced more than 4,000 drawings in his lifetime, and campaigned for social causes such as the abolition of capital punishment and slavery.
Although he was a committed royalist when young, Hugo's views changed as the decades passed, and he became a passionate supporter of republicanism, serving in politics as both deputy and senator. His work touched upon most of the political and social issues and the artistic trends of his time. His opposition to absolutism, and his literary stature, established him as a national hero. Hugo died on 22 May 1885, aged 83. He was given a state funeral in the Panthéon of Paris, which was attended by over two million people, the largest in French history.
