< What is Les Miserables? >
Les Miserables is a novel by French novelist Victor Hugo, set in France in the 19th century. The title means `` poor and miserable people '' in French. Les Miserables Chapter 1, "Pantine," was first published in Brussels, Belgium on March 30, 1862, and first in Paris on April 3, four days later. Chapter 2, "Cosette" and Chapter 3, "Marius," were published simultaneously in Brussels and Paris on May 15 of the same year. Was also published simultaneously in Brussels and Paris on June 30 of the same year. If you look at the original Les Miserables, you are not dealing with the story of Jang Baljang from Chapter 1. In the first edition of Les Miserables, the image, conduct, and thoughts of Bishop Miriel, which are described only as bishops who are kind to Jang Baljang, are described in more than 100 pages. The protagonist, Jang Baljang, will appear in Chapter 2. Moreover, Jang Baljang's name was added to the last book, Chapter 5, not Chapter 1. Of course, although the story of Jang Baljang is the main content of Les Miserables, he devotes a few pages to explaining the detailed history and environment of almost all other characters. A prisoner who has been stigmatized to feed and survive a family living around the 1830s, an abused child, a craftsman who has been desperately fallen to the bottom of society, a young man plagued by his family for being a supporter of Napoleon, a family confused by fraudulent parents, trying to change the world The story features the stories of many 'poor people' in France, including young people and police who have been obsessed with punitiveism but have yielded to a defective society. In addition, if the part that the writer wants to explain while proceeding with the plot, the story is repeated. Even these parts are completely unnecessary for the progress of the novel. For example, this monastery reads the original work as the story is often some people made frustrating because there are 100 pages of unnecessary content such as what this monastery looked like and what it looked like in the past. Even Rangsong is said to be this work, "This novel is a world and a chaos." However, for this reason, Les Miserables not only possesses literary values, but also has historical values to understand the times and lifestyles of the time. I think since the writer worked as a reporter and wrote poetry, the original work is thought to be the reason that a lyrical story could emerge from the criticism of the social system. So this is the reason why Les Miserables is considered a masterpiece. Editor-in-Chief Chae-rin Shin |
