Profession:
(1802-1885) French poet, playwright, novelist and essayist.
Year of Birth: 1802
Victor Hugo was a French poet, novelist, and playwright who is considered one of the greatest French writers of all time. He was born on February 26, 1802, in Besançon, France, into a family of artists and intellectuals. From a young age, Hugo showed a talent for writing and was encouraged by his mother to pursue a career in literature.
He gained early fame with his play Cromwell in 1827, which marked the beginning of his literary career. However, it was his novel The Hunchback of Notre-Dame, published in 1831, that solidified his reputation as a leading figure in the Romantic movement. The novel was a critical and commercial success, and it remains one of his most famous works.
In addition to The Hunchback of Notre-Dame, Hugo is also known for his epic novel Les Misérables, which was published in 1862. The novel tells the story of Jean Valjean, a French peasant who is imprisoned for stealing a loaf of bread and his journey to redemption. Les Misérables is considered a classic of world literature and has been adapted into numerous films, musicals, and plays.
Throughout his life, Hugo was also politically active and played a prominent role in the French Romantic movement. He was a member of the Académie Française and was elected to the French National Assembly in 1848. He was a vocal critic of the government and used his writing to address social and political issues of his time.
Victor Hugo's literary legacy continues to inspire readers and writers around the world. His works are celebrated for their passionate and lyrical style, as well as their exploration of themes such as justice, love, and redemption. Hugo died on May 22, 1885, in Paris, France, but his influence on literature and culture endures to this day.
