About the Book

Jean Valjean, un ancien forçat condamné en 1796, trouve asile, après avoir été libéré du bagne et avoir longtemps erré, chez Mgr Myriel, évêque de Digne. Il se laisse tenter par les couverts d'argent du prélat et déguerpit à l'aube. Des gendarmes le capturent, mais l'évêque témoigne en sa faveur et le sauve. Bouleversé, Jean Valjean cède à une dernière tentation en détroussant un petit Savoyard puis devient honnête homme. En 1817 à Paris, Fantine a été séduite par un étudiant puis abandonnée avec sa petite Cosette, qu'elle a confiée à un couple de sordides aubergistes de Montfermeil, les Thénardier. Elle est contrainte de se prostituer...
About the Author: Victor Hugo est un poète, dramaturge, prosateur et dessinateur romantique français, né le 26 février 1802 à Besançon et mort le 22 mai 1885 à Paris. Il est considéré comme l'un des plus importants écrivains de langue française. Il est aussi une personnalité politique et un intellectuel engagé qui a joué un rôle majeur dans l'histoire du XIXe siècle. Victor Hugo occupe une place marquante dans l'histoire des lettres françaises au XIXe siècle, dans des genres et des domaines d'une remarquable variété. Il est poète lyrique avec des recueils comme Odes et Ballades (1826), Les Feuilles d'automne (1831) ou Les Contemplations (1856), mais il est aussi poète engagé contre Napoléon III dans Les Châtiments (1853) ou encore poète épique avec La Légende des siècles (1859 et 1877). Ses romans rencontrent également un grand succès populaire, avec notamment Notre-Dame de Paris (1831), et plus encore avec Les Misérables (1862). Au théâtre, il expose sa théorie du drame romantiquedans sa préface de Cromwell en 1827 et l'illustre principalement avec Hernani en 1830 et Ruy Blas en 1838, mais aussi Lucrèce Borgia et Le Roi s'amuse. Son oeuvre multiple comprend aussi des discours politiques à la Chambre des pairs, à l'Assemblée constituante et à l'Assemblée législative, notamment sur la peine de mort, l'école ou l'Europe, des récits de voyages (Le Rhin, 1842, ou Choses vues, posthumes, 1887 et 1890), et une correspondance abondante. Victor Hugo a fortement contribué au renouvellement de la poésie et du théâtre. Il a été admiré par ses contemporains et l'est encore, mais il a aussi été contesté par certains auteurs modernes. Il a également permis à de nombreuses générations de développer une réflexion sur l'engagement de l'écrivain dans la vie politique et sociale grâce à ses multiples prises de position, lesquelles l'ont condamné à l'exil pendant les vingt ans du Second Empire.
