Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dramatic Works of Victor Hugo As the Translator of "Hernani" and "Ruy Blas," I may be permitted to offer a few remarks on the three great dramas which are now presented in an English form to the English-speaking public. Each of these works is preceded by the Author's Preface, which perhaps exhausts all that had to be said of the play which follows - from his own original point of view. It is curious to contrast the confident egotism, the frequent self-assertion, and the indignation at repression which mark the prefaces to "Hernani" and "Le Roi s'Amuse" with the calm dignity of the very fine dramatic criticism which introduces the reader to "Ruy Blas." But when the last-named tragedy was produced, Victor Hugo's fame was established and his literary position secure; he no longer had need to assert himself, for if a few enemies still remained, their voices were but as the buzzing of flies about a giant. Trusting that the Author's Prefaces will be carefully read, I will endeavour only to supplement what is said in them. "Hernani" belongs emphatically to the romantic school, and to the period in European literature when the bonds of olden custom in all the arts were being broken - often for good results, though not always.

The King (sings). "Changeful woman, constant never, He's a fool who trusts her ever, For her love the wind doth blow, Like a feather, to and fro." 1 saltabadil goes sullenly to the next room, returning tvith a bottle and glass, which he places cm the table.

Download or read book Hernani by Victor Hugo Book Analysis written by Bright Summaries and published by BrightSummaries.com. This book was released on 2018-06-20 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlock the more straightforward side of Hernani with this concise and insightful summary and analysis! This engaging summary presents an analysis of Hernani by Victor Hugo, which tells the story of the titular bandit as he tries to be with the woman he loves, Donna Sol. Given that Donna Sol is already engaged to her uncle and Hernani must live life as an outlaw, their relationship seems impossible, and the happiness they have long yearned for is ultimately snatched away before they can truly savour it. Because it openly flouted the conventions of classical theatre, the play inspired a lively polemic when it was first performed, but later came to be recognised as a classic work of French drama. Its author, Victor Hugo, was one of the leading figures of the Romantic movement in France, and is known in particular for his novels Les Misérables and The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
