Riassunto

Excerpt from Les Misérables: Abridged, With Introduction and Notes

Mire and was republished later, in 1826, in book form. In 1822 he brought out his first book of verse, Odes et Poe'sies diverses, and four months later, October 12, was married to Adele Foucher. In 1823 he wrote Han d'islande, published in 1824, under the influence of Sir Walter Scott, and during that and the next year contributed to La Muse frangaise, which formed the rallying-point of the first Ce'nacle, which met at the Arsenal and of which N odier was the host and leader. The Nouvelles Odes appeared in 1824, also, and two years later came the Odes et Ballades. December, 1827, saw the publication of the drama Crom well, the famous Pre'face of which was the manifesto of the Romanticist school. The play contains lines, and is impossible of performance. In 1828 Hugo lost his father; the same year he brought out, under the name of his brother-in-law, Paul Foucher, the drama Amy Robsart, which proved a failure. The final edition of Odes et Bal lades came out in the same year, and in 1829 appeared Les Orientales, and a prose work, Le dernier Jour d'un Con damné, a protest against the infliction of the death pen alty. This is the time of the second Ce'nacle, to which belonged, among others, saints-beuve, Musset, and Dwas. In June he wrote Marion Delorme, a drama interdicted before the first performance, but produced August 11, 1831, after the revolution of 1830 had swept away the objections to the play. Hugo set to work at once on another play, Hernani, which was performed at the theatre-francais on February 25, 1830, and won the stage for the Romanticist school. His first great novel, Notre Dame de Paris, projected in 1828 and written in 1830, was published March 17, 1831. In November of the same year appeared the volume of poems called Feuilles d'au tomne. 1832 saw the performance of Le Roi s'amuse. Two other dramas were given by him in 1834, Lucrece.
