Excerpt from Notre-Dame of Paris, Vol. 3By her side stood a young man of imposing though somewhat vain and swaggering mien, one of those handsome fellows about whom all women agree, though the grave and discerning men shake their heads at them. This young cavalier wore the brilliant uniform of a captain of the archers of the household troops-s-which too closely resembled the costume of Jupiter, which the reader has already been enabled to admire in the first book of this history, for us to inflict upon him a second description.The damsels were seated, partly in the room, partly on the balcony; some on cushions of Utrecht velvet with gold comer-plates; others on oaken stools carved with flowers and figures. Each of them held on her lap a portion of a large piece of tapestry, on which they were all working together, while a good part of it lay on the matting which covered the floor.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paris, 1482. Autour de la belle bohémienne Esmeralda, dont la danse résonne sur le parvis de Notre-Dame, gravitent trois prétendants prêts à tout pour la conquérir : Phoebus, noble capitaine, Claude Frollo, prêtre sans foi, et le célèbre Quasimodo, bossu au grand cœur… Surplombant le roman, la cathédrale, vivifiante Babel, lieu de refuge et d’épouvante aussi, voit se presser autour d’elle le peuple, acteur de l’Histoire en marche. Récit historique à la langue pittoresque et roman noir tout de meurtres et de mystère, Notre-Dame de Paris connaît, aujourd’hui encore, une popularité sans égale. Ainsi que l’écrivait Lamartine à l’auteur en 1831 : « C’est une œuvre colossale, une pièce antédiluvienne. […] Je ne vois rien à comparer dans nos temps à Notre-Dame. C’est le Shakespeare du roman, c’est l’épopée du Moyen Âge, c’est je ne sais quoi ; mais grand, fort, profond, immense, ténébreux comme l’édifice dont vous en avez fait le symbole. » Dossier : 1.
