Description
The action of the novel takes place in medieval France. The Cathedral of Our Lady of Paris is a real place. In those distant times, the world was ruled by religious and moral delusions; inquisitorial fires burned. Esmeralda, a green-eyed gypsy woman, stood out for her otherworldly beauty—and for that very reason she was doomed to die. Too many people wanted to be with her, too many admired her. As a result, an innocent girl with an angelic appearance became a victim of intrigues and hunters of her beauty.
Two heroes, Claude Frollo and Quasimodo, are opposites. One is ugly in his soul, the other ugly in appearance. Both are in love with the beautiful Esmeralda. One tries to save her, while the other destroys her. Such a contrast reveals two sides of love: the desire to possess, leading to the destruction of the object of love, and the willingness for self-sacrifice and forgiveness. But the beautiful girl did not love either of them. Her heart belonged to the captain of the king’s archers. Yet this pair was not destined to be together.
The Cathedral of Our Lady of Paris is directly connected with all the heroes of the novel, in which the author portrays the many facets of love: from ordinary lust to a pure childlike feeling.
