Summary "Pariisin Notre-Dame 1482" by Victor Hugo is a historical novel written in the early 19th century. The narrative is set in 1482, focusing on the bustling life of Paris and revolving around notable characters such as Quasimodo, Esmeralda, and Pierre Gringoire. The story explores themes of love, destiny, and societal norms against the backdrop of the famous Notre-Dame Cathedral. The opening of the novel establishes a vivid scene on January 6, 1482, as Parisians awaken to the sound of church bells marking the celebration of the Epiphany and the Feast of Fools. Through a rich description of the lively atmosphere, Hugo introduces the significance of the day, characterized by public festivities, a mystery play, and the presence of important figures like the Cardinals and various members of the community. Amidst the anticipation of the performance and the gathering crowd, characters are hinted at, setting the stage for the complex interactions between love, desire, and social hierarchy that will unfold throughout the narrative.
