Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although best known as the author of Notre Dame de Paris and Les Misérables, Victor Hugo was primarily a poet—one of the most important and prolific in French history. Despite his renown, however, there are few comprehensive collections of his verse available and even fewer translated editions. Translators E. H. and A. M. Blackmore have collected Victor Hugo's essential verse into a single, bilingual volume that showcases all the facets of Hugo's oeuvre, including intimate love poems, satires against the political establishment, serene meditations, religious verse, and narrative poems illustrating his mastery of the art of storytelling and his abiding concern for the social issues of his time. More than half of this volume's eight thousand lines of verse appear here for the first time in English, providing readers with a new perspective on each of the fascinating periods of Hugo's career and aspects of his style. Introductions to each section guide the reader through the stages of Hugo's writing, while notes on individual poems provide information not found in even the most detailed French-language editions. Illustrated with Hugo's own paintings and drawings, this lucid translation—available on the eve of Hugo's bicentenary—pays homage to this towering figure of nineteenth-century literature by capturing the energy of his poetry, the drama and satirical force of his language, and the visionary beauty of his writing as a whole.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Translations From the Poems of Victor Hugo It has been said that in these days we know toomuch about our great men. The "fierce light" that beats around the lives of men of genius exaggerates and often distorts every unimportant detail, every subsidiary feature, so that we are shown shreds and patches rather than any comprehensive or comprehensible unit, and a jargon of discussion rises in place of a calm judgment It is as thoughsome great old picture were exposed to a glare so intense that only its cracks and scores would attract notice, while the design as a whole was lost.

But, wretch! your soul a flash of pity crost; Blest glow! (where selfishness had ne'er a part), Unknown e'en by yourself, possessed your heart, I made you die, while right assumed her reign; Salvation e'en the cruel can regain, E'en bloodiest murderer, and worst of lords, Who the least help, to the least man affords--One moment's love, wins Eden repossest; Help to a pig outweighs a world opprest, And thrills with joy for him who 'scapes from hell Come, you were good one day, be ever blest; Enter, transfigured late by crimes possest, King! By heaven's splendours they are all effaced, By spotless white see your black wings replaced." POOR FOLK. 'TVS night, the hut, though poor, keeps out the JL wind; The room is dark, yet something there you find Which like a ray amid the twilight falls; The fishing-nets are hung about the walls, And in a nook, where pots and plates in line Upon a cupboard shelf obscurely shine, Stands a large bed, with curtains hung around, Hard by a mattress spread upon the ground, Where, like a nest of souls, five children sleep; The hearth, where ashes still some fire keep, On bed and ceiling cast a reddish ray; A woman, thoughtful, pale, kneels down to pray; Their mother. She's alone; and out of doors The ocean, white with foam, its wailing pours To sky, night, rock, to howling winds and wild. The man's at sea; a sailor from a child, With gloomy chance doth a fierce war sustain: For he must be afloat in squall and rain. POOR FOLK. 177 The children cry for food, and off he hies At eve, when billows to the gunwale rise. Unhelped, alone, his bark he steers and tends.

Book excerpt: Towards the close of the First French Revolution, Joseph Leopold Sigisbert Hugo, son of a joiner at Nancy, and an officer risen from the ranks in the Republican army, married Sophie Trébuchet, daughter of a Nantes fitter-out of privateers, a Vendean royalist and devotee. Victor Marie Hugo, their second son, was born on the 26th of February, 1802, at Besançon, France. Though a weakling, he was carried, with his boy-brothers, in the train of their father through the south of France, in pursuit of Fra Diavolo, the Italian brigand, and finally into Spain. Colonel Hugo had become General, and there, besides being governor over three provinces, was Lord High Steward at King Joseph's court, where his eldest son Abel was installed as page. The other two were educated for similar posts among hostile young Spaniards under stern priestly tutors in the Nobles' College at Madrid, a palace become a monastery. Upon the English advance to free Spain of the invaders, the general and Abel remained at bay, whilst the mother and children hastened to Paris.

Book excerpt: 'To the English, I am "shocking"...What's more, French, which is disgusting; republican, which is abominable; exiled, which is repulsive; defeated, which is infamous. To top it all off, a poet...' Victor Hugo dominated literary life in France for over half a century, pouring forth novels, poems, plays, and other writings with unflagging zest and vitality. Here, for the first time in English, all aspects of his work are represented within a single volume. Famous scenes from the novels Notre-Dame, Les Misérables, and The Toilers of the Sea are included, as well as excerpts from his intimate diaries, poems of love and loss, and scathing denunciations of the political establishment. All the chosen passages are self-contained and can be enjoyed without any previous knowledge of Hugo's work. Much of the material is appearing in English for the first time, and most of it has never before been annotated thoroughly in any language.
