Victor Hugo (1802-85) was the most forceful, prolific and versatile of French nineteenth-century writers. He wrote Romantic costume dramas, many volumes of lyrical and satirical verse, political and other journalism, criticism and several novels, the best known of which are Les Miserables (1862) and the youthful Notre-Dame de Paris (1831). A royalist and conservative as a young man, Hugo later became a committed social democrat and during the Second Empire of Napoleon III was exiled from France, living in the Channel Islands. He returned to Paris in 1870 and remained a great public figure until his death: his body lay in state under the Arc de Triomphe before being buried in the Pantheon.
John Sturrock is Deputy Editor of The Times Literary Supplement. He read modern languages at Oxford and Sussex Universities and has translated from French and Spanish. He is the author of two books, The French New Novels (1969) and Paper Tigers: The Ideal Fictions of Jorge Luis Borge (1977).
Victor Hugo's classic adventure story tells of the tragic figure of Quasimodo, the hunchback bellringer of Notre-Dame Cathedral and his devotion to La Esmeralda, the flamboyant gypsy dancer.
When the demented archdeacon Claude Frollo plans to abduct La Esmeralda, he employs Quasimodo to do the job for him. But the plan goes horribly wrong, and Esmeralda finds herself charged with the murder of Phoebus, the man she was in love with. In a thrilling scene of high drama, her kidnapper becomes her rescuer; but for how long can she remain concealed from the evil Frollo? In a wonderfully evocative novel, Victor Hugo brings medieval Paris to glorious, bustling life.

評分 評分更早以前的時候,我們高中的課本裏有《巴黎聖母院》的節選,選瞭“一滴眼淚換一滴水”裏的一部分,那時的介紹無非是善良的愛斯梅拉達,陰險自私的副主教剋洛德,看的電影中副主教也是這樣的形象,貪戀愛斯梅拉達的美色而使齣惡毒的計謀。直到現在我完整讀完瞭這本書,說實...
評分《巴黎聖母院》是法國19世紀著名作傢雨果的代錶作。小說描寫瞭15世紀光怪陸離的巴黎生活,作者用對比的手法刻畫瞭一群性格鮮明生動、極富藝術感染力的人物形象,以之間錯綜復雜的矛盾糾葛和悲劇命運剖析瞭豐富復雜的人性世界。 首先一組人物形象是吉蔔賽少女愛斯梅拉達和敲鍾人...
