A Brief Summary of Victor Hugo’s “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” (Notre Dame de Paris, Vol. XII)
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 3 page paper summarizing Victor Hugo’s “The Hunchback of Notre Dame”. Victor Marie Hugo (1802-1885) was considered one of France’s greatest writers of the 19th century. His work “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” or “Notre Dame de Paris, Volume XII” was written in 1831 and in Hugo’s preface to that volume he writes how he was influenced by the dark Gothic writing he had once seen on the walls during a visit of his to Notre Dame. For Hugo it was that fact that the words had been inscribed on the wall many centuries previously that impacted him as he tried to visualize the cathedral during the Middle Ages; an image which resulted in the novel. The novel depicts a darker time in Paris during the 15th century when the city had criminal and influential elements which led to the eventual demise of the central characters of the loyal hunchback Quasimodo, the gypsy Esmeralda and Dom Frollo who deceived and used them for his own selfish desires.

A Caribbean Childhood: A Child's Way Of Seeing The World Versus The Adult Viewpoint
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. Deciphering Caribbean attributes within the literary world as they relate to the diverse perspectives of children and adults is not always a simple observation; rather, such depiction requires an inherent knowledge that can only be found in those who place both their hearts and souls into the work. Five authors in particular stand out in this field as successfully portraying the aspect of Caribbeanness and its relationship to a child's way of seeing the world within their writings: Jean Rhys' Wide Sargasso Sea; Maryse Conde's I, Tituba, Black Witch of Salem; Caryl Phillips' Cambridge; Simone Schwarz-Bart's The Bridge of Beyond; and Aime Cesaire's Notebook of a Return to the Native Land. The authors clearly exemplify the fundamental aspects of childhood attitudes as compared to their adult counterparts, clearly illustrating how the world looks rosier to a child; as that child grows into adulthood, there develops an expectation for a greater fall.
