"9 X Je suis toujours garde-malade a je n ai aucun liberté l'esprit.Dans your beauté exquite, , vous me pardonne n est-ce pas, madame? Je suis toujours a tu pieds" --Victor HugoTranslation:I am still a nurse and I have no freedom of mind.In your exquisite beauty you forgive me, don t you madame?I am always at your feet. Victor Hugo Upton Sinclairdescribed the novel as "one of the half-dozen greatest novels of the world", and remarked that Hugo set forth the purpose ofLes Misérablesin thePreface: "So long as there shall exist, by reason of law and custom, a social condemnation, which, in the face of civilization, artificially creates hells on earth, and complicates a destiny that is divine with human fatality; so long as the three problems of the age the degradation of man by poverty, the ruin of women by starvation, and the dwarfing of childhood by physical and spiritual night are not solved; so long as, in certain regions, social asphyxia shall be possible; in other words, and from a yet more extended point of view, so long as ignorance and misery remain on earth, books like this cannot be useless."Towards the end of the novel, Hugo explains the work's overarching structure:[8] "The book which the reader has before him at this moment is, from one end to the other, in its entirety and details. a progress from evil to good, from injustice to justice, from falsehood to truth, from night to day, from appetite to conscience, from corruption to life; from bestiality to duty, from hell to heaven, from nothingness to God. The starting point: matter, destination: the soul. Thehydraat the beginning, the angel at the end." Les Misérables is aFrenchhistorical novelbyVictor Hugo, first published in 1862, that is considered one of the greatestnovelsof the 19th century. In the English-speaking world, the novel is usually referred to by its original French title. However, several alternatives have been used, includingThe Miserables,The Wretched,The Miserable Ones,The Poor Ones,The Wretched Poor,The VictimsandThe Dispossessed.[5]Beginning in 1815 and culminating in the 1832June RebellioninParis, the novel follows the lives and interactions of several characters, particularly the struggles of ex-convictJean Valjeanand his experience of redemption.[6]Examining the nature of law and grace, the novel elaborates upon thehistory of France, the architecture and urban design of Paris, politics,moral philosophy,antimonarchism, justice, religion, and the types and nature ofromanticand familial love.Les Misérableshas been popularized through numerousadaptationsfor film, television and the stage, including a musical.

HUGO, Victor (1802-1885) Lettre autographe signée « V. » à Émile Allix H[auteville] H[house], 25 juillet [1862], 2 pp. petit in-24° (4,3 x 6,8 cm) sur papier vergé bleu, Enveloppe autographe jointe (déchirure, voir scan) Légère trace de pliure oblique sans importance sur la deuxième page [Timbre sec :] S. Barset / June / 25 / High Street / Guernsey [Cachet postal :] 28 Jul[y] [18]62 / Ang[leterre] Calais Lettre « miniature » inédite à son médecin personnel, annonçant son départ pour la Belgique après l'épuisant travail de rédaction des Misérables « Merci, cher Monsieur Émile. Vous avez le dévouement le plus charmant du monde et vous entrez en fonctions avec tout l'esprit possible et une grâce parfaite. Votre lettre est une page toute étincelante. Voici, imprimées, deux lettres qui vous intéresseront, si vous connaissez quelque journal qui trouve bon de les reproduire, faites. Je vais voir mon Charles dans quelques jours. Ce sera une joie profonde, et je la mérite un peu après ce lourd labeur. Quel dommage que vous ne soyez pas de cette clef des champs là ! Est-ce que vous voudrez jeter à la poste ces trois billets. Je fais mon sac de nuit, et je vous serre les deux mains V. » Une lettre à Paul Meurice, envoyée la veille, permet de connaître en détails le périple que Victor Hugo s'apprête à entreprendre : « Nous partirons lundi 28 (avec M. Lacroix) [l'éditeur des Misérables], nous passerons à Londres la journée de mardi. Mercredi 29 nous serons à Bruxelles (par Ostende), jeudi 30 à Liège (puisque Liège vous plaît). Tâchez donc d'y arriver, vous et Charles, le 31 juillet », puis d'ajouter en fin de lettre, anticipant semble-t-il les recommandations de son médecin : « Pour modérer la pluie de lettres pendant mon absence, voudrez-vous faire publier dans Le Siècle ou La Presse quelque chose comme ceci : "Sur l'avis des médecins qui lui ont conseillé le changement d'air après le grand travail des Misérables M. Victor Hugo a quitté Guernesey pour un voyage de quelques semaines" » Émile Allix (1836-1911) est un docteur en médecine français, spécialisé en pédiatrie. C'est lors de vacances passées à Jersey que le jeune étudiant en médecine (alors âgé de 19 ans) fait connaissance de l'écrivain par le biais de son frère Jules et sa sur Augustine, proches du cercle Hugo. Ses convictions républicaines, son opposition au régime de Napoléon III, sa gentillesse et sa nature très douce furent autant d'arguments qui permirent au médecin de sceller le début d'un indéfectible amitié avec l'écrivain. C'est Allix qui, en 1868, assistera Adèle Hugo, très malade, dans ses derniers instants. Intime de Victor Hugo et de sa famille, il sera le fidèle de tous les instants, comme un autre fils. Avec ses confrères Alfred Vulpian et Germain Sée, il signe les derniers certificats qui précèdent la constatation du décès de Victor Hugo, le 22 mai 1885. Quand Victor Hugo signait de la seule initiale de son prénom, cela signifiait avant tout une très grande proximité avec son correspondant (habituellement réservée à son cercle le plus proche). Le regret exprimé ici par l'écrivain de ne pouvoir retrouver son ami médecin pour son périple belge témoigne d'autant plus des liens qui les unissaient. Les lettres de Victor Hugo d'un format singulièrement si petit sont très rares Provenance : Collection particulière. Signé par l'auteur.
