Victor Hugo, página 7 de 39

EDIZIONE REVISIONATA 10/02/2020.I miserabili viene pubblicato per la prima volta in Belgio nel 1862. In quegli anni Victor Hugo si trova in esilio sullisola di Guernesey, davanti al golfo di Saint-Malo, dove lo ha costretto un decreto di Luigi Napoleone, divenuto imperatore grazie al colpo di stato del 1851. Lopera di Victor Hugo, insieme alla sua attivita politica, viene infatti considerata rivoluzionaria. Massimo esponente del romanticismo in Francia, lo scrittore non si limita a parlare dei sentimenti umani, ma descrive nelle sue opere le condizioni reali della gente, le ingiustizie della societa francese e le difficolta quotidiane del popolo. I protagonisti del suo romanzo non sono personaggi di fantasia, ma i veri miserabili della Francia del tempo, le vittime reali delle disuguaglianze che si perpetrano nel paese e dei drammi sociali di quellepoca: emarginati, prostitute, famiglie indigenti, lavoratori sfruttati, bambini costretti a crescere troppo in fretta Hugo denuncia la drammatica situazione in cui si trovano migliaia di persone attraverso le vicende di Jean Valjean, un miserabile costretto a scontare ventanni di prigione per aver rubato del pane, che riacquistera, la sua dignita di uomo.

Víctor Hugo, uno de los grandes escritores del romanticismo y el mayor genio poético que tuvo Francia, nació en 1802 en Besancon, y fue un niño precoz: a los catorce años la Academia Francesa le premio una poesia, y cinco años mas tarde publico su primer volumen de poemas, Odas y poesias diversas. De sus novelas se destacan ademas de El jorobado de Notre Dame, Los miserables y El noventa y tres. Fallecio en Paris en 1885.

This book features many of the characters who are well-known: Valjean, the criminal trying to escape his reputation; Javert, the police agent trailing him; the unfortunate Fantine and her daughter, Cosette; the rascally Thenardier; and above all the splendid street urchin, Gavroche. Among the unforgettable descriptions are those of the Paris sewers, the battle of Waterloo and the fighting at the barricades during the July Revolution. There are few more complete, or more vivid, pictures of France at the beginning of the nineteenth century. "Les Miserables" is at once a thrilling narrative and a social document embracing a wider field than any other novel of its time.

Victor Hugos tale of injustice, heroism and love follows the fortunes of Jean Valjean, an escaped convict determined to put his criminal past behind him. But his attempts to become a respected member of the community are constantly put under threat: by his own conscience, when, owing to a case of mistaken identity, another man is arrested in his place; and by the relentless investigations of the dogged policeman Javert. It is not simply for himself that Valjean must stay free, however, for he has sworn to protect the baby daughter of Fantine, driven to prostitution by poverty. A compelling and compassionate view of the victims of early nineteenth-century French society, Les Miserables is a novel on an epic scale, moving inexorably from the eve of the battle of Waterloo to the July Revolution of 1830.

Para Victor Hugo el exilio no es una cosa material, es una cuestión moral: "Todos los rincones de la tierra resultan lo mismo". Cuestión moral, no cuestión de derecho, la aplicación injusta del poder sobre otro que no tiene como oponerse a la sentencia.A traves de Victor Hugo quienes nos hablan son todos aquellos que han ganado la cali-dad de proscritos, y con ella, han perdido lo que consideraban suyo, forzados a dejar-lo todo y a buscar fortuna en otras tierras, o simplemente a sobrevivir bajo el dominio tenaz de la melancolia.

En este último medio siglo, Víctor Hugo, tras haber disfrutando ante el público de un favor sin precedentes en toda la historia de la literatura francesa, ha caído en desgracia entre espíritus selectos, que le echan en cara una falta de inteligencia, una falta de gusto y una facilidad, en el peor sentido de la palabra, que harian de el una especie de industrial del alejandrino. Cierto es que, en algunas partes de su obra, ha podido merecer semejantes reproches, pero esto no nos debe permitir olvidar que en muchas otras es uno de los poetas mas puros y mas ricos y, entre los prosistas, aquel cuyo poder de evocacion resulta inigualable.

El presente ensayo nos da una visión no solo de la gran admiración de Hugo por el genio de Shakespeare (y cabe recordar que, durante demasiado tiempo, este había sido negado hasta por los compatriotas del dramaturgo), sino tambien de las ideas mas profundas de Victor Hugo sobre el genio y sobre la mision de la literatura.

The term capitalism is generally applied to the system under which the instruments of production are the property of private owners, who usually employ managers and manual workers to carry out production by their meansA word first of all to indicate clearly the point of view which characterizes the study. I shall not enter into the question of the formation of capital itself, that is, of the sum total of the goods employed by their possessor to produce more goods at a profit. It is the capitalist alone, the holder of capital, who will hold our attention. My purpose is simply to characterize, for the various epochs of economic history, the nature of this capitalist and to search for his origin.ABOUT THE AUTHORHenri Pirenne (1862-1935) was a Belgian historian who made significant contributions to the field of medieval history.
