Notre Dame De Paris (top Ten Literary Classics in the World)
About This Novel
"Notre Dame de Paris" is set in France in 1482. It focuses on the relationship between the gypsy girl Esmeralda and the young and handsome captain of the guard, the sanctimonious archdeacon and the deformed and ugly bell ringer. It describes the entanglement between the fates of Esmeralda, Cassimordo and Frollo and other major characters. Conflict and destruction tells a legendary and tragic story that took place in Paris, France in the 15th century. It artistically reproduces the historical reality of France during the reign of King Louis XI, passionately sings the noble humanity of the gypsy girl and the bell ringer, and deeply lashes out at the hypocrisy and despicability of the captain of the guard and the deputy bishop. The novel embodies Hugo's artistic expression principle of "contrast between beauty and ugliness". Its publication broke the shackles of pseudo-classicism and marked the complete victory of romanticism.
