Victor Hugo: His Life and Work is a biographical account of the renowned French writer Victor Hugo, written by George Barnett Smith and published in 1885. The book provides a comprehensive overview of Hugo's life and career, from his early years as a poet and playwright to his later works, including the famous novels Les Mis�����rables and The Hunchback of Notre-Dame. Smith delves into Hugo's personal life as well, exploring his relationships with his family, friends, and lovers, as well as his political beliefs and activism. The book also discusses the cultural and historical context of Hugo's work, including his place in the Romantic movement and his influence on French literature.Throughout the book, Smith draws on a variety of sources, including Hugo's own writings, letters, and journals, as well as contemporary accounts and interviews with those who knew him. The result is a vivid and engaging portrait of one of the most important writers of the 19th century, and a fascinating glimpse into the cultural and political landscape of France during his lifetime.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
