In his preface to his historical play CROMWELL (1827) Hugo wrote that romanticism is the liberalism of literature. Hugo developed his own version of the historical novel, combining concrete, historical details with vivid, melodramatic, even feverish imagination. Among his best-known works are The Hunchback of Notre Dame and "How came it that this prudent, economical man was also generous? That this chaste adolescent, this model father, grew to be, in his last years, an ageing faun? That this legitimist changed, first into a Bonapartist, only, later still, to be hailed as the grandfather of the Republic? That this pacifist could sing, better than anybody, of the glories of the flags of Wagram? That this bourgeois in the eyes of other bourgeois came to assume the stature of a rebel? These are the questions that every biographer of Victor Hugo must answer." (from Olympio: The Life of Victor Hugo Virgil .

    Extractions: VICTOR HUGO This document was originally published in The Drama: Its History, Literature and Influence on Civilization, vol. 9 . ed. Alfred Bates. London: Historical Publishing Company, 1906. pp. 11-13. As Voltaire In his Feuilles d'Automne Autumn Leavesand in other writings Hugo has given sketches of his life, as he wished the world to see and admire it. The biography, professing to be "related by a witness of his life," and attributed to his wife, was largely written by himself with characteristic exaggerations and embelishments. With all his genuine love of humanity, extending to the vicious and degraded, there was joined an overweening vanity which demanded that mankind must be interested in him and his doings. As he lived long in public view in an era of unprecedented activity of the press, the records of his career are abundant from every point of view. But his literary works must be their own vouchers at the bar of the world's judgement. For our purpose we cannot do better than give the substance of Prof. Brander Matthews' verdict on Victor Hugo's dramas. He finds that they are melodramas written by a poet, rather than poetic plays written by a dramatist. In 's works, as in

Even after the fall of the citizen king Louis Philippe, this former member of the upper house under the Restoration, favored the regency of the Duchess d'Orleans. His famous portrait of Blanqui at the clubs perfectly encapsulates the bourgeois iconography of fear for the revolutionary wild man. The carnage of the June Days merely shifted his sentiments from Cavaignac to Louis Napoleon Bonaparte. But Louis Napoleon was on his way to becoming "little" ( le Petit History of a Crime .
