By Victor Hugo Author Bio: Victor Hugo 18021885 was one of the major figures of French Romantic literature remembered above all for novels of immense social and imaginative reach especially Notre-Dame de Paris and Les Misérables. First published in 1862 Les Misérables became an immediate success and remains Hugos best-known exploration of justice poverty redemption and the moral life of modern society. Illustrated By: De Neuville Bayard Morin Valnay Illustrator Bio: De Neuville Bayard Morin Valnay and other prominent French artists The illustrations in this edition draw on the work of several notable 19th-century French artists including Alphonse de Neuville Émile Bayard Edmond Morin and Jacques Desroches-Valnay. De Neuville was celebrated for his dramatic historical and military scenes; Bayard is especially remembered for his iconic Les Misérables imagery above all his famous Cosette; Morin was a gifted painter-printmaker and journal illustrator; and Desroches-Valnay contributed widely to the illustrated French press of the later 19th century. Synopsis: At the heart of Les Misérables is Jean Valjean the former convict whose attempt to rebuild his life unfolds across a vast panorama of 19th-century France. Around him move Javert Fantine Cosette and Marius as Hugo turns an engrossing narrative into a sweeping meditation on mercy suffering social injustice and political upheaval. This Folio Society limited edition presents the novel in a form well suited to its scale: imposing beautifully produced and enriched by illustrations drawn from the great French visual tradition surrounding the text together with Vargas Llosas companion essay on Hugos narrative method.

"</em></p><p><u>Léonie Biard's loving memory from exile</u><br />A great love of Victor Hugo Léonie Biard 1820-1879 was the only woman for whom the writer hesitated to leave Juliette Drouet. Born into a family of minor nobility Léonie Thévenot received a good education before marrying the painter François Biard. In the spring of 1843 she met Victor Hugo perhaps in Fortunée Hamelin's salon. They became lovers in December of the same year. Léonie inspired him to write many poems of which we can find traces in <em>Les Contemplations</em>. In July 1845 the two lovers were caught in the act of adultery. Léonie Biard was arrested and thrown into the prison of Saint-Lazare where she remained from 5 July to 10 September. She was then transferred to the convent of Sentenced by the Seine court she lost custody of her children. Victor Hugo benefiting from his inviolability as Peer of France will always feel indebted to her. He sent her money regularly and continued to send her his books. Their affair was abruptly interrupted during the coup d'état of 2 December 1851 forcing the poet into exile. Juliette Drouet unaware of the affair learned of this seven-year affair from Léonie herself who on June 28 1851 sent her back the poet's letters. They were published by Jean Gaudon and are kept at the Maison de Victor Hugo after having belonged successively to Juliette Drouet Louis Koch Paul Meurice Alexandrine de Rothschild sale I n°67 and then to Colonel Sickles II 1989 n°361.</p><p><u>Alphonsine Masson the spiritual link</u><br />The direct recipient of this letter Alphonsine Masson played an essential role as an intermediary between the poet and Léonie Biard. The two friends knew each other from before the exile. It is therefore through her that Victor Hugo can reach Léonie through words. An exalted personality Alphonsine wanted to go beyond a wise conjugal existence through literary essays and an eventful spiritual quest. Marked by an education received from a militant agnostic father and a pious mother she first devoted herself to spiritualism establishing contacts with spirits from beyond the grave. In 1857 she was a member of an association that had rediscovered Franz Mesmer's scorned and abandoned science. Around 1860 she suddenly lost her ability as a medium: "Whatever I did then to get it back together I couldn't do it." She then proclaimed herself a Christian convert and published an autobiography <em>Ma conversion</em> Paris 1864 in which she recounted her spiritual journey. At the same time as this conversion remembering that she had been asked to write for many years by friends eminent in letters she became emboldened and responded to her late vocation. She wrote three novels: <em>Louise</em> <em>Les Trois amies</em> <em>La Perle noire</em> which appeared only in serials in <em>L'Estafette</em> <em>Le Siècle</em> and other Parisian newspapers.</p><p>Why did Victor Hugo pass on his messages to Léonie Biard through Alphonsine Masson Was it a question of not reviving the scandal that had marked the discovery of adultery No doubt the poet wanted to escape any police control over this correspondence which if revealed could have compromised the exile in the eyes of public opinion. He might also be afraid of hurting Juliet by reviving an old wound.</p><p><u>Provenance:</u><br />Alphonsine Masson's etate until 2002<br />Then private collection</p>

Exceptional and loving signed inscription by Victor Hugo to his daughter-in-law Alice Lehaene - widow of Charles Hugo - and his beloved grandchildren: ""To my dear daughter and your sweet mother my Georges my Jeanne signed: Papapa"" A ma chère fille et à votre douce mère mon Georges ma Jeanne Papapa. ""We called him Papapa. Legend has it - he surrounded us with legends! - that one morning at Hauteville House while he was working in that glass cage perched at the top of the house little Georges came in and said: - Hello Papapa! . To hear the son of his son Charles who had just died pronounce this unknown word the grandfather was overjoyed for he knew the secret language of children: Georges' stammer made him twice a father much more than a grandfather. . My name is Papapa now' he said softly. And until he died my sister and I called him by this dearest name which he always cherished"" Georges-Victor Hugo My Grandfather Mon grand-père Paris: Calmann-Lévy In 1871 after the tragic and unexpected death of his son Charles Victor Hugo became guardian of his two grandchildren Georges and Jeanne. From then on he played a large part in their upbringing and spent some of the happiest moments of his life with them reflected in the countless endearing notes about the two children in Choses vues Things Seen. Upon the death of his last son François-Victor he moved in with Georges and Jeanne's mother Alice at 21 rue de Clichy; on the floor below he lodged Juliette Drouet. This gave him plenty of time to spend with his ""little ones"" for whom he organized children's dinners and made plenty of toys. The children are the subject of his immensely popular poetry collection L'Art d'être grand-père 1877 The Art of Being a Grandfather. ""Its popularity was immediate and its success resounding so dazzling was his way of celebrating childhood by telling the story of Georges Jeanne and himself. By putting children's words into verse so naturally and freshly Georges et Jeanne's ""Papapa"" has succeeded like no other in exalting ""grandparental"" feelings. At home these feelings are not limited to allowing children to leave their toys lying around on manuscripts: when Alice remarried journalist and politician Édouard Lockroy' Simon contributor to Le Rappel Hugo opposed him sharing guardianship"" Sandrine Fillipetti Victor Hugo This inaugural volume of Actes et paroles Deeds and Words containing Victor Hugo's first major political texts is a poignant testimony to his humanist commitments. The ""little"" owners of this precious copy received their grandfather's intellectual and militant legacy: from his ""Discours de réception"" at the Académie française 1841 to his famous stance against Napoleon III ""Révision de la Constitution"" ""No! after Napoleon the Great I don't want Napoleon 'le Petit'!"" which led to his exile. At the heart of this compilation is a highly significant text ""For Charles Hugo. The death penalty"" delivered by Hugo before the Seine Assize Court in 1851 in de Michel Lévy frères hardcover
