Produktbeschreibung

Trieste Publishing has a massive catalogue of classic book titles. Our aim is to provide readers with the highest quality reproductions of fiction and non-fiction literature that has stood the test of time. The many thousands of books in our collection have been sourced from libraries and private collections around the world.The titles that Trieste Publishing has chosen to be part of the collection have been scanned to simulate the original. Our readers see the books the same way that their first readers did decades or a hundred or more years ago. Books from that period are often spoiled by imperfections that did not exist in the original. Imperfections could be in the form of blurred text, photographs, or missing pages. It is highly unlikely that this would occur with one of our books. Our extensive quality control ensures that the readers of Trieste Publishing's books will be delighted with their purchase. Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers. Generally, Trieste books are purchased singly - on demand, however they may also be purchased in bulk. Readers interested in bulk purchases are invited to contact us directly to enquire about our tailored bulk rates.

Autorenporträt

Victor Hugo, born in 1802, was a towering figure in French literature and a leading voice of the Romantic movement. His early years were shaped by his father's military career and his mother's royalist leanings, but he soon developed his own revolutionary ideas, which would profoundly influence his work. By the time he published Les Misérables and The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Hugo had already established himself as a literary master known for his vivid depictions of social injustice.Hugo was also deeply involved in politics, advocating for republican ideals and speaking out against the injustices of his time, including the death penalty and slavery. His opposition to Napoleon III led to his exile, during which he produced some of his most famous works. Hugo's commitment to social reform extended beyond his writing, as he championed human rights throughout his life.Returning to France in 1870, Hugo was hailed as a national hero. His works, including poetry, novels, and plays, left an enduring legacy in both literature and politics. He passed away in 1885, and his funeral, attended by millions, marked the nation's profound respect for his life and work.
