HANOI PEDAGOGICAL UNIVERSITY FACULTY OF LITERATURE ******* GROUP Topic 7: Novel THE NOVEL NOTRE DAME DE PARIS, ALSO KNOWN AS THE IDIOT OF NOTRE DAME BY VICTOR HUGO I, INTRODUCTION Victor Hugo is the greatest romantic writer in France in the nineteenth century, over time the name and massive literary career of V.Hugo has been confirmed Victor Hugo's talent is shown in many ways, in any genre he is very successful and leaves many impressions As a famous romance writer, V.Hugo is considered to have had many unique creations in the field of prose, especially the novel genre In this genre, V.Hugo has shown bold, new and secretive creative intentions that he has not yet included in the poetry genre Notre-Dame de Paris is one of the most famous novels by writer Victor Hugo and has been adapted into a movie of the same name, The Idiot of Notre Dame We can see that the work of Notre-Dame de Paris, which was adapted into a movie, is a success of author Victor Hugo, he has brought readers and viewers an extremely attractive experience when they can combine between Read novels and watch movies There are many who have attributed the novel Short Story and Drama to other media, especially film Novels have their own characteristics that make them different from movies As Klarer stated in his book with title in An Introduction to literary studies He stated; “Film is a semi–textual genre both inspired by and exerting influence on literature and literary criticism Film is effective by literary technique; conversely, literary practice developed particular features under the impact of the film” Klarer's comment shows that the film is built on the novel, but the other drawback is the conflict in the film as well as the characters are reproduced more perfectly in the novel, which gives viewers more enjoyment more attractive to the reader From the success of the novel Notre-Dame de Paris, we can see that many writers and poets now want to connect literature with film, giving readers the same attraction as contemplation in terms of both visuals as well as sound and that was also a perfect success So our group came together to learn about the novel Notre Dame de Paris, also known as the Idiot of Notre Dame Contents The novel Notre-Dame de Paris, also known as The Idiot of Notre Dame, was read by many people and presented the situation of the girl, the tragic fate of the beautiful girl Esmeralda, who had taken over the world The heart of Captain Phoebus, the poor poet Pierre Gringoire, the deputy bishop of Frollo church and of course the hunchback Quasimodo, resonated, promoting the process of restoration and embellishment of the work afterwards With the novel The Hunchback of Notre Dame, although the writer Hugo is set in the time of the romance story in 1482, during the reign of King Louis XI, much of the content of the book is a retrospective Think and reflect on the special architecture of the building built in the Gothic style that the great French writer loves and admires as well as the love of the girl Esmeralda as well as the character Quasimodo II LITERATURE REVIEW Many people read the novel Notre-Dame de Paris, also known as the Idiot of Notre-Dame de Paris, which depicted the girl's circumstances, the tragic fate of the lovely girl Esmeralda, who had won her heart Captain Phoebus' work, as well as that of the poor poet Pierre Gringoire, the deputy bishop of Frollo church, and, of course, the hunchback Quasimodo, resonated and aided in the restoration of the work Although Hugo's work The Hunchback of Notre Dame is set in the time of the romance story in 1482, during King Louis XI's reign, most of the content of the book is retrospective Consider the unique design of the Gothicstyle structure that the famous French writer admires and adores, as well as the love of the girl Esmeralda and the figure Quasimodo VICTOR HUGO Victor Hugo was born on February 26, 1802, in Besanỗon, France, and died on May 22, 1885, in Paris Among other romance writers, he is largely regarded as one of the most prominent and influential poets, novelists, and playwrights However, he gained international fame as a result of two wellknown novels: Notre-Dame de Paris (1831) and Les Misérables (1862) He is even more powerful than he is in his own country Early years (1802–30) Les Misérables was one of his first books It was motivated by the author's dismal student life throughout his college years And, thanks to the fall of the empire, he had a time of continuous study from 1815 to 1818 He graduated from the University of Paris with a bachelor's degree in law The image of Marius that we see today in the novel Les Misérables was influenced by this Hugo's famous journal, the Conservateur Litteraire (1819–21), was published between 1819 and 1821 His mother's encouragement was the driving force behind his decision His own articles on the poets Alphonse de Lamartine and André de Chénier are among the most notable He released his first collection of poems, Odes et poésies diverses, on the same day he started the famed magazine With the story Han d'Islande, he gave birth to his first brainchild in 1823 Hans of Iceland, an English translation of this text, was published in 1825 Not only that, but in 1826, an expanded edition was published, and the work is now known as Odes et ballades However, it was not until 1827, after the broadcast of the television series Cromwell, that he gained widespread recognition as a true romance writer This modern play is about a national leader who has risen from the people and wants to be crowned king Success (1830–51) His popularity did not decline after that Hugo became famous in 1830 with the historical novel Notre-Dame de Paris, which has since become even more famous Dicté après juillet is, once again, a piece created to commemorate this occasion; moreover, for Hugo, Dicté après juillet is a significant predecessor of much of his future political poetry But it appears that Hugo is still dissatisfied with his lot in life; he wants to be more famous, to become the era's "great echo." As a result, the verses progressively began to represent not only personal feelings, but also political, philosophical, and religious themes, as well as instability in religion and human society at the time The poems that emerge not only add to Hugo's treasure trove, but they also highlighted the workers' plight, with one proclaiming the potency of prayer Hugo, however, had a tragic event He had experienced a significant loss of a loved one since his writing skills were recognized and praised in 1841 after three failed efforts Since then, he has virtually completely stopped working in the world of writing and hasn't published anything The book Les Misérables was not released until 1862, which helped him feel comforted and gradually more steady Exile (1851–70) of Victor Hugo Napoleon le Petit (1852); Les Châtiments (1853); Les Contemplations (1856) are worms born in unusual circumstances The author had been in exile for about 20 years at the time These works appeared to be satire at the time As well as a watershed moment in the deepening of one's involvement in current politics This liberation of Hugo's imagination benefited all of Hugo's subsequent verse The most sad thing for Hugo readers and fans is that his last two works, La Fin de Satan ("The End of Satan") and Dieu ("God"), remained unpublished until his death Both depict bravery in the face of adversity Unfortunately, it is not making its way into the hands of readers However, there is some good news for Les Misérables It was resurrected after Hugo abandoned it, and the missing parts were completed Hugo's novel was published in 1862 and was an instant success, bringing him recognition in his own country Hugo finished the essay William Shakespeare (1864) and two novels in exile: Les Travailleurs de la mer (1866; The Toilers of the Sea) and L'Homme qui rit (1867) (1869; The Man Who Laughs) Hugo's final work, Quatre-vingttreize (1874; Ninety-three), was set in France during the turbulent year 1793 and depicted human justice and mercy in the context of the French Revolution Last years (1870–85) of Victor Hugo He was elected to the National Assembly as a delegate in 1871, but resigned the following month Though he continued to fight for his former ideas, he lacked the same vigor Hugo died in 1885, two years after Juliette, his beloved partner, and was accorded a national funeral His remains was laid to rest beneath the Arc de Triomphe before being buried in the Panthéon THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME - NOVEL BY HUGO Victor Hugo's historical tale The Hunchback of Notre Dame was first published in French in 1831 as Notre-Dame de Paris ("Our Lady of Paris") Victor Hugo's novel The Hunchback of Notre Dame was released in 1831 During the reign of Louis XI, this tale is set in the city of Paris in the 15th century July in 1830 is linked to the 15th century This time period is associated with torture and the execution of innocent individuals People are unable to struggle and little to ensure that justice is served in society Central themes This tale appears to be about Quasimodo and Esmeralda's great misery, condemning a harsh, greedy human society Hugo concludes that the real monsters are Frollo and Phoebus, not Quasimodo and Esmeralda Context and reception This is a story about living in the 15th century, and it recreates the society and atmosphere of the time It appears to be a reminder to never forget what has happened in the past, as well as its glorious beauty royal in the Gothic style of Paris's past The book also serves as a plea for the city's old Gothic architecture to be preserved (and thus its heritage) His pleading was well received The novel's first printing, by publisher Charles Gosselin, was issued in four issues of 275 copies each, and it was an instant hit Thousands of copies were printed after that The Hunchback of Notre Dame has grown in popularity as a result of its popularity and beauty, providing inexhaustible sources of inspiration for many artists and others who work in the field of transformation Beyond its projected success, Notre-Dame de Paris has gradually become a symbol of France, and the widespread usage of representations of the cathedral has aided in the revival of Gothic forms' use and status Adaptations The Hunchback of Notre Dame has been adapted for theatre and screen multiple times William Dieterle directed one of the most noteworthy film adaptations, which was released in 1939 and starred Charles Laughton and Maureen O'Hara, however the cheerful ending differed greatly from Hugo's novel A silent film starring Lon Chaney was released in 1923, and a 1956 version starring Anthony Quinn and Gina Lollobrigida was released in 1956 In September 1998, the stage musical Notre-Dame de Paris opened in Paris According to reports, the show had the most successful first year of any musical at the time NOVEL SUMMARY Set in the background of ordinary life in 15th-century Paris Quasimodo is the subject of the work The Hunchback of Notre Dame Quasimodo is a Parisian who is tasked with ringing the bell at Notre Dame Cathedral And it was from here that he fell in love with La Esmeralda, a lovely dancer When it comes to La Esmeralda, not everyone is aware that she had a difficult childhood She was taken as a child by a group of Roma people But because no one told La Esmeralda, she was absolutely oblivious of this She lived among the Roma as if she were a member of their community When it came to Quasimodo, he couldn't get enough of La Esmeralda's beauty the first time he saw her at the fair Quasimodo is honored as "Pope of the Fools" at this celebration and is then thrashed by an enraged mob Esmeralda, a sweet young lady, felt sorry for him and offered him a glass of water Quasimodo fell in love with this girl after this and vowed to put his life on the line to protect her Two other men contend for Esmeralda's favor, unbeknownst to Quasimodo: Quasimodo's adoptive father, Archdeacon Dom Claude Frollo, and the womanizing captain Phoebus de Châteaupers Captain Phoebus has fallen deeply in love with Esmeralda She happily agrees when he asks her to see him in secret late one night Phoebus tries to persuade Esmeralda to sleep with him later that night A disguised Frollo observes the couple from a closet in Phoebus' room The archdeacon, enraged by seeing Phoebus kiss Esmeralda's shoulder, shatters the closet door and stabs Phoebus in the back Before he can see his adversary, Phoebus passes out Frollo flees, leaving Esmeralda as the only suspect in the attempted murder After being slandered in an unlucky situation, the king became enraged and ordered his bodyguards to arrest Esmeralda and bring her to court During the trial, she admitted to all of her crimes, including the murder of Phoebus (even though he was still alive) With his love for Esmeralda, Quasimodo strove to discover a means to save her In Notre-Dame, he provided her with a safe haven However, I was forced to see her being dragged away in misery in the end By removing Esmeralda from the cathedral and unleashing her to an enraged mob of Parisians, Frollo betrays Quasimodo and Esmeralda When Quasimodo saw the girl he loved hanged in the middle of the castle, he was in excruciating pain He becomes enraged and ejects Frollo from the church After many years of reaching readers, the effort comes to an end The day before Esmeralda's interment, just two skeletons (a hunchbacked man and a woman) embraced "He married," Hugo says of Phoebus Whatever else is going on in this otherwise thoroughly amusing novel, the link between cowardice, weakness, "unmanliness," and a dislike of sexual violence, as well as the unsettling undertones of the closing chapter, must be criticized HOW VICTOR HUGO SAVED NOTRE DAME DE PARIS A Novel Becomes a Cause To be able to be born, the masterpiece that we have today had to go through a lot of experiences Notre Dame gradually faded into obscurity after the French Revolution Hugo was highly concerned as a result of this In order to conserve the monument, he published the novel you are familiar with, with the goal of denouncing society's indifference and promoting the monument's preservation It took a long time for all of the hard effort to pay off However, a relic was rescued in the end, possibly due to the work's popularity Whatever the cause, Victor Hugo locked himself away in his Paris apartment for the next 4.5 months, churning out the masterpiece we know today An Epic Story Hugo's art is truly great when it vividly and realistically depicts a medieval human culture The plot centres around a deteriorating church, a relic on the verge of extinction owing to human neglect Hugo has also succeeded in launching a movement to protect, restore, and renovate Notre Dame as a result of this story However, some consider it to be an eyesore, resulting in a loss of aesthetics in the heart of Paris A Cathedral Saved from Ruin Many important works have been removed as a result of the emergence of contemporary society, to be replaced by more attractive and modern works Worried that this would happen, Hugo quickly published an article in the newspaper advocating for the preservation of the art form's cultural importance, but it did not seem to make much of an influence As a result, the church is still in jeopardy of being demolished He was undeterred, and he began composing The Hunchback of Notre Dame right away It actually worked as planned, as the Government Commission on Historical Monuments conducted a competition for the restoration of Notre Dame after the piece became famous A Lasting Presence Perhaps you can't imagine the work The Hunchback of Notre Dame's success at the time Why can a novel preserve a relic on the verge of extinction? The narrative has been told in more than 12 films Paintings, engravings, sculptures, cartoons, songs, comic strips, graphic novels, stage productions, journals, and even podcasts reflect the work's background, people, and things Do you believe the novel will fade into obscurity when the church dies? On the contrary, the book rocketed to the top of bestseller lists all around the world during the time of the Notre Dame cathedral fire All editions of the novel were sold out on Amazon The book’s “renewed” popularity, however, isn’t really something new The cathedral, as well as Victor Hugo's famed work, have long been ingrained in our hearts and minds NOTRE DAME DE PARIS ACCORDING TO VICTOR HUGO The existence of the Hunchback of Notre Dame's work is more than a representation of Quasimodo and Esmeralda's love However, it has accomplished the major goal that Hugo has set for himself, which is to repair the church After nearly two centuries, the rise of media outlets such as Disney, musicals, and Netflix has aided Hugo in realizing his dream Notre-Dame has fans all over the world 850 years after its construction, much beyond its stature as a religious and architectural monument, as the fire on April 15th revealed It's a chance to re-read the author's book, which has been flying off store shelves since the tragedy Here are some extracts from the book that will perhaps show you what the church has been through when you read it It also explains why Hugo's work is so similar to Hugo's And it also explains the reason why Hugo's work coincides with Notre Dame's church Notre-Dame facing the ravages of time "Today, Notre-Dame de Paris is undeniably a magnificent and spectacular structure But, as lovely as it has been preserved, it is difficult not to sigh, not to be outraged at the degradations, the numerous mutilations that both time and man have inflicted on the revered monument as it grows older A light in the heart of darkness It was already dark and deserted inside the cathedral The counter-naves were completely dark, and the chapel lamps were beginning to twinkle, the vaults darkening Only the faỗade's huge rose, whose thousand colors were enveloped by a horizontal sunbeam, gleamed like a jumble of diamonds in the shadows, echoing their dazzling phantom at the opposite end of the nave The faỗade: principal treasure of Notre-Dame The archdeacon had undoubtedly fallen in love with Notre-symbolic Dame's doorway, that page of riddles carved in stone by Bishop Guillaume of Paris A devastating fire A vast, disordered, and angry flame rose between the two steeples, higher than the central rose window, with whirlwinds of sparks, a large, disordered, and furious flame whose wind occasionally carried off a flap in the smoke ( ) The massive towers above the flame, each of which had two raw and sliced faces, one black and the other crimson, seemed even bigger than the gigantic shadows they sent into the sky NOTRE-DAME DE PARIS: FROM SEARING EMOTION ON THE FUTURE REBIRTH OF A WORLD HERITAGE SITE In Paris, on April 15, 2019 For the people here, it was most likely an amazing night When the fire at Notre Dame Cathedral rages, the emotions remain the same "Notre Dame is on fire, and the entire country of France, and the entire world, is crying." Paris Archbishop Michel Aupetit stated "It's horrible, terrifying, agonizing, a tragedy, a nightmare," says the narrator The night passed, leaving numerous casualties, not just at Notre Dame's ruins The extent of the devastation was so great that the spire of the 93-meter church toppled totally Two-thirds of the structure was destroyed or seriously damaged Perhaps all we perceive when we look at the church at that time is a terrible ruin However, thanks to the efforts of 500 heroic firemen, the church's structure has been "completely saved and preserved," according to Jean-Claude Gallet, commander of the Paris Fire Brigade Two towers with colossal bells are still standing and many of the church's priceless treasures survive Immense emotion It cannot be denied that, among all the world's historical monuments, Notre Dame is regarded as a relic with a unique history, special architecture, and worldwide fame Books, novels, cartoons, and musicals are all examples of this Every year, hundreds of millions of people visit Hugo's work has been known 10 and read by millions of people who have gathered at Notre Dame Cathedral to breathe fresh air and pray The Hunchback of Notre-Dame is a popular English title, but the original title is Notre-Dame de Paris, which puts the cathedral front and center in the title and story Emotions are evoked by World Heritage Sites, and emotions show shared values The thousands of messages from heads of state, the outpouring of passionate feelings on social media — Notre Dame's place in the collective imagination and worldwide significance is evident Monuments like these inspire us to empathize with them on an emotional level They serve as pillars of national identity and can even help to advance international ties Creative reconstruction Throughout the evening of April 15 and the next day, an extraordinary effort began to take shape: The French president announced a national contribution drive, Unesco offered its support, and mayors from major and small communities across the country banded together We need a comprehensive study of how the sad destruction of such a priceless relic was even feasible before we can lay out the way to the cathedral's revival According to art historians Alexandre Gady and Didier Rykner, the fire could and could have been avoided They claim that even if Notre Dame is "repaired," we have effectively "lost it." "When we see history destroyed, it's in our nature to mourn – but it's also in our nature to rebuild for tomorrow, as strong as we can," former US President Barack Obama remarked the night of the fire AROUND THE WORLD, THE NOTRE DAME FIRE INSPIRES SADNESS, SOLIDARITY AND ANGER The entire globe appears to be very upset and concerned for Notre Dame's "health" following the devastating fire: As the flames engulfed the 12th-century church, Spain's prime minister offered France his country's assistance in the restoration To reconstruct Notre Dame, French President Emmanuel Macron told reporters outside the site that he will seek international assistance, especially 11 from the world's "best talents." At the opening of a visit to Minnesota, US President Donald Trump lamented the "awful, terrible fire" that ravaged "one of the world's great assets." Barack Obama, the former president of the United States, shared an old photo of himself, his wife Michelle, and their two kids lighting candles in a cathedral Cardinal Timothy Dolan, the archbishop of New York, prayed for intercession at St Patrick's Cathedral in Manhattan as the flames spread The cathedral, which Barbara Drake Boehm, senior curator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art's medieval Cloisters section in New York, termed "one of the great monuments to the greatest of civilization," was badly damaged, she said In a shaky voice, Boehm told a reporter, "Civilization is simply so fragile." "Since 1163, this massive stone monument has stood there It's been through a lot of tribulations." Pearl Jam bassist Jeff Ament recalled spending hours in the cathedral with record executive Michael Goldstone during his first visit in 1991 THIS DREADFUL WEB: ALIENATION AND MISCOMMUNICATION IN THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME Hugo's work on saving the church was recognized in 1831 as a strange interplay involving a spider, a fly, and archdeacon Claude Frollo, both literally and metaphorically During a visit to the Notre Dame cell lab, he was distracted by a scene After a fly got entangled in the web, it was the spider that was enjoying its meal One of his visitors reaches out to help the fly, but Frollo grabs his arm and screams, "Do not interfere with Fate's job!" (Hugo 268) He then confounds his audience by waxing poetic about the "universal symbol" of the fly craving just light, fresh air, freedom, and knowledge but becoming entangled in the web of fate, desire, and pride This work gives a metaphor that centers around a number of characters, not simply Frollo The story is built on the concept of fate, with characters becoming entangled in events and fantasies that appear to be beyond their control The characters in Hunchback are so engrossed in their own or society's webs of dreams and perceptions that they can no longer communicate effectively with others, resulting in alienation from the society in which they find themselves 12 In his characterizations, Hugo delves into these ideas of estrangement This alienation might be visible at times Quasimodo is "shut off from the world forever by the double fatality of his mysterious birth and his disability," according to Hugo Quasimodo can't correct them because he never learned to connect with people outside of the church, and he doesn't really want to because he's been loathed, mocked, and derided for being "different" for as long as he can remember He was blessed by the saints, who were his buddies The monsters were his allies and guardians This discovery of society in inanimate items goes against Horowitz's idea of alienation in the first place Quasimodo can claim items as his friends and society because they are simple and easy to understand, but people and philosophy are more difficult for him to grasp, and "human speech meant nothing but scorn or curses," as he puts it His extreme ugliness sets him apart from the Parisians, who constantly mock and ridicule him out of fear and loathing The cathedral of Notre Dame is his entire universe This peculiar bond between Quasimodo and inanimate objects extends beyond the stone statues of saints and gargoyles to the bells he is responsible for ringing Hugo connects the bells with a substitute for speech or regular communication for Quasimodo right from the outset, but the language he employs to describe Quasimodo's affection for the bells is fascinating Apart from the sexual overtones, this is the first appearance of the spider and fly emblem, which Quasimodo's adopted father will elaborate on about 120 pages later One of the reasons Quasimodo is caught in the spiderweb of alienation is that he is fighting the bells, and by riding the bell and becoming one with it, he becomes the spider himself When he found Quasimodo abandoned outside of a church, Frollo adopted him and reared him as his son Quasimodo was saved by Frollo, who gave him everything he ever needed, and Quasimodo will never be able to repay him He's just another fly trapped in the web of the archdeacon Frollo, on the other hand, does not adopt Quasimodo out of the kindness of his heart Quasimodo is being raised as spiritual collateral for his own brother, Jehan, a beloved rapscallion Frollo, unlike Victor Frankenstein, chooses to care for and educate his "monster," but he does not socialize, nurture, or provide him with the deep 13 familial relationship that Victor values Both Quasimodo and the Creature are sensitive, philosophical persons entangled in webs of deformity that prevent social acceptance, resulting in their separation from the society they so desperately desire Frollo's connection with his parents was strained at best, according to Hugo, because he was destined for the church nearly from birth He spent more time at school than at home, but he emphasized learning over making friends As a result, Frollo's main outlet for his fiery personality was ravenous learning, which he devoured with a voracious desire On Monday mornings, he was the first person through the school doors and sat right across from the professor in his canon law classes Frollo, despite speaking four languages, is unable to converse properly with others Frollo's training as a priest trains him to contain his emotions, and he has a lot of emotions to contain Frollo, like the Creature and Quasimodo, has been denied the love of his family from an early age, so he makes faith and science his mistress and devotes himself to their study Frollo's reaction throughout the story is separation from himself He is continually attempting to distance himself from Esmeralda's acts and attraction to her He blames God, the devil, Esmeralda, and he has to distance himself from these filthy sinful thoughts and behaviors in order to maintain his self-image as a virtuous man However, this is a deliberate communication breakdown that cannot endure indefinitely The irony in this chapter is that Frollo is attempting to maintain the illusion that he is unaffected by his actions He can no longer separate himself from the immoral and bad part of himself that is responsible for the death of the lady he loves and the eternal damnation of his eternal soul, and the realization of this drives him insane This chapter is told fully from Frollo's perspective, although Hugo uses free indirect discourse to tell us what Frollo is thinking without revealing his actual views to the readers The only person with whom Frollo can properly communicate is himself Because of his cloistered and austere upbringing, Frollo never comes to grips with or learns to handle his sexuality, and as a result, he despises women for how they make him feel As a result, Frollo's incapacity to relate with women 14 is the novel's most influential facet of his character He sees women as harbingers of sin and temptation, destined to lead him to damnation He only sees women as objects of desire and temptation, not as people He doesn't require the company of others - in fact, he foregoes it entirely in the end and flees with the goat, abandoning Esmeralda to Frollo's wrath — he just requires himself Maria is the Latin word for Mary, the mother of God, who represents Frollo's responsibilities and devotion to his faith Sophia is the Greek word for wisdom, and it represents Frollo's passion for science and learning But it is Esmeralda, the Spanish term for emerald, that has derailed his studies to the point where he is unable to finish speaking All of the characters I've mentioned so far have been socially excluded, not only as a result of communication breakdowns, but also as a result of their look, career, or race Due to their nobility and social standing, other characters, such as Phoebus de Chateupers, captain of the royal archers and the object of Esmeralda's eternal affection, and his fiancée, Fleur-de-Lys de Gondelaurier, not have to worry about estrangement from society But it doesn't mean they're immune to communication breakdowns "Women's instincts read and respond to one another more quickly than men's understandings," Hugo says There is no communication breakdown or failure here; simply spiders in a web doing what spiders when a fly is caught Due to an inability to communicate properly, almost every character is alienated from part or all of the society they live in, resulting in what Horowitz calls a "intense alienation" from people in society A conversation between Frollo and Esmeralda in the cathedral is included in the 1939 film version of Hunchback, which the Disney picture drew inspiration from almost as much as the original book It is not contained in the original novel Quasimodo has rescued Esmeralda and the other captured and persecuted gypsies, beaten Frollo by plunging him into the flaming pit of sin, bigotry, and racism, and is carried up upon several Parisians' shoulders and paraded into society as a hero by the entire city by the end of the film Nobody is offended, and the children's film concludes happily ever after Some characters in Victor Hugo's The Hunchback of Notre Dame choose to be estranged, while others are forced to be alienated by circumstances beyond 15 their control But, in the end, they're all just flies trapped in a web of society, fiction, and perception, and no amount of talking will save them from the fateful spider III CONCLUSION Author Victor Hugo is a writer; a typical poet of France and the world, he has left humanity as well as readers with incredibly appealing and important works contained in many of his works However, it is possible to say that Victor Hugo's most successful work is Notre-Dame de Paris, which he translated into a film called The Idiot of Notre Dame, which presented extraordinarily honest and charming characters As such, it portrays the circumstance of the character's attitude in an appealing manner to the reader and listener regarding morals, which is the author's clue on many different themes related to problems in life such as attitudes, behaviors, and manners in society Ethics sends a message about the essence of nobility and the fight for human dignity Morality is frequently associated with beneficial things in literary works As a result, if the work displays attitudes and actions that are unappreciated by readers, even those who adopt them as villains or protagonists, the work will be considered a failure This does not instruct the reader on how to act or behave The reader is not to follow or model the characters' attitudes and actions Giving a moral message, whether positive or negative, serves this aim 16 17 IV REFERENCES Dame#ref343394
