The Hunchback Of Notre-Dame (Notre-Dame de Paris) is a dramatic historical romance set in medieval times. Victor Hugo's first great novel, it is centred on the life of the great Gothic cathedral of Notre-Dame on the Ile de la Cite in the heart of Paris - the focal point of French pride, religious life and ceremonial occasion. The date is 1482, the year before Louis XI died. The principal characters are the beautiful La Esmerelda, a gypsy dancer, who is in love with Captain Phoebus; Claude Frollo, the hypocritical and demented archdeacon,whose evil passion, fuelled by celibacy, for La Esmerelda causes him to denounce her as a witch; and, most famous of all, the hero Quasimodo,the' Hunchback of Notre-Dame', a deformed bell-ringer and creature of the cathedral, whose devotion to La Esmerelda saves her, for a time,when she is confronted by a mob and seeks refuge and protection in the belfry. La Esmerelda is however doomed to meet a tragic end,while Quasimodo exacts a terrible revenge on Frollo on the pinnacles of Notre-Dame itself……
