Notre Dame

Notre Dame

by Victor Hugo

Der Glöckner von Notre-Dame erzählt die Geschichte von Quasimodo, einem missgestalteten Glöckner, der in die schöne Zigeunerin Esmeralda verliebt ist. Der Roman spielt im mittelalterlichen Paris und zeigt die soziale Ungleichheit, die Liebe, die Schönheit und das Schicksal des Glöckners. Der Roman ist zugleich eine Liebesgeschichte und ein Drama über die menschliche Natur. Er zeigt, wie leicht Liebe in Hass umschlagen kann, wie wichtig es ist, sich für das Gute einzusetzen, und dass Schönheit nicht nur äußerlich sein muss.
