Ninety-Three - Victor Hugo

. .

Résumé :
Published in 1874, Ninety-Three was French writer Victor Hugo's last novel published immediately subsequent to the bloody Paris Commune. It deals with the counter-revolutionary revolts in 1793 during the French Revolution, namely those in the Vend?e and Chouannerie. Ninety-Three is split into three parts, with each part telling a different story and offering a different view of historical events. Highly recommended for those with an interest in French history and the seminal works of Victor Hugo. Victor Marie Hugo (1802 - 1885) was a French novelist, dramatist, and poet belonging to the Romantic movement. He is widely hailed as one of the most accomplished and well-known French writers, originally achieving renown for his poetical endeavours-the most notable of which are the volumes Les Contemplations and La L?gende des si?cles. Outside of his native country, Hugo's best-known works are his novels: Les Mis?rables (1862) and Notre-Dame de Paris (1831). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.

Biographie:
Victor Hugo (1802-1885) foi um dos mais c?lebres escritores, poetas e dramaturgos franceses, conhecido pelas suas contribui??es para a literatura rom?ntica e pela sua profunda influ?ncia no pensamento social e pol?tico. Nascido em Besan?on, Fran?a, Hugo demonstrou talento liter?rio desde tenra idade e ganhou proemin?ncia com as suas colec??es de poesia e pe?as de teatro antes de cimentar o seu legado como romancista. As suas obras-primas, Os Miser?veis e O Corcunda de Notre-Dame, permanecem cl?ssicos intemporais, explorando temas de justi?a, reden??o e as lutas dos marginalizados. Um fervoroso defensor dos direitos humanos, Hugo usou a sua escrita para desafiar a opress?o, lutar pela liberdade e apoiar os ideais democr?ticos. As suas convic??es pol?ticas levaram ao seu ex?lio durante o reinado de Napole?o III, um per?odo que apenas aprofundou as suas buscas liter?rias e ideol?gicas. Para al?m da literatura, Hugo foi uma figura p?blica influente cujas obras ajudaram a moldar a Fran?a do s?culo XIX. O seu impacto perdura, com as suas hist?rias, personagens e ideias a continuarem a inspirar gera??es em todo o mundo....
