Victor Hugo’s exile works
Keywords:
Victor Hugo, Exile, Liteary works of exile, Coup d'état, Louis NapoléonAbstract
Although Victor Hugo supported the candidacy of Louis Napoléon in the elections for president of the French Republic and helped to elect him in 1848, Hugo turned against Bonaparte after the coup d’état in December of 1851. The opposition to the government
resulted in an exile wich only finished 19 years later, with the decay of Napoleón III. Victor Hugo produced nonstop for all these years: Napoléon le Petit, Les Châtiments, Les Contemplations, Les Travailleurs de la Mer, Les Chansons des Rues et des Bois, La Légende des siècles, Les Misérables, William Shakespeare, Les Travailleurs de la Mer e L’Homme qui rit are examples of an arduous and inspired work, but that doesn’t hide the sadness of the exile. This article aims to analyze the texts that Victor Hugo wrote during or after his banishment in order to comprehend in wich way it influenced his work.
