Victor Hugo (1802-1885) foi um dos mais célebres escritores, poetas e dramaturgos franceses, conhecido pelas suas contribuições para a literatura romântica e pela sua profunda influência no pensamento social e político. Nascido em Besançon, França, Hugo demonstrou talento literário desde tenra idade e ganhou proeminência com as suas colecções de poesia e peças de teatro antes de cimentar o seu legado como romancista. As suas obras-primas, Os Miseráveis e O Corcunda de Notre-Dame, permanecem clássicos intemporais, explorando temas de justiça, redenção e as lutas dos marginalizados. Um fervoroso defensor dos direitos humanos, Hugo usou a sua escrita para desafiar a opressão, lutar pela liberdade e apoiar os ideais democráticos. As suas convicções políticas levaram ao seu exílio durante o reinado de Napoleão III, um período que apenas aprofundou as suas buscas literárias e ideológicas. Para além da literatura, Hugo foi uma figura pública influente cujas obras ajudaram a moldar a França do século XIX. O seu impacto perdura, com as suas histórias, personagens e ideias a continuarem a inspirar gerações em todo o mundo.
