Hvem daterte Victor Hugo?

Victor Hugo (født 26. februar 1802, død 22. mai 1885) var en fransk forfatter. Blant hans viktigste verker er romanene Ringeren i Notre-Dame og Les Misérables (De elendige). I tillegg til sine romaner skrev han også mye poesi og dramatikk.

Hugo var en engasjert politiker og ble valgt inn i både grunnlovsforsamlingen og nasjonalforsamlingen. Han talte de svake og de fattiges sak, og kjempet for å fjerne dødsstraffen. Da Napoleon III tok makten i Frankrike ble Hugo landsforvist, og levde i eksil i nesten 20 år på den lille øya Guernsey i Den engelske kanal. Han kom ikke tilbake før republikken var gjenreist, og ble da hyllet som en folkehelt. Han var innvalgt i Académie française, det franske akademi.

Léonie Thévenot d'Aunet (2 July 1820 – 3 March 1879) was a French author, novelist, playwright and Arctic explorer.

Judith Gautier (25 August 1845, Paris – 26 December 1917) was a French poet, translator and historical novelist, the daughter of Théophile Gautier and Ernesta Grisi, sister of the noted singer and ballet dancer Carlotta Grisi.

She was married to Catulle Mendès, but soon separated from him and had a brief affair with the composer Richard Wagner during the late summer of 1876. She collaborated with Pierre Loti, the famous novelist, in writing a play, La fille du ciel (1912; English, The Daughter of Heaven), translated and produced under their personal supervision at the Century Theatre, New York City. She was an Oriental scholar and her works dealt mainly with Chinese and Japanese themes. Her translations were among the earliest to bring Chinese and Japanese poetry to the attention of modern European poets. She was a member of the Académie Goncourt (1910–17).

Juliette Drouet (French pronunciation: [ʒyljɛt dʁu.ɛ]; born Julienne Joséphine Gauvain [ʒyljɛn ʒozefin ɡovɛ̃]; 10 April 1806 – 11 May 1883) was a French actress. She abandoned her career on the stage after becoming the mistress of Victor Hugo, to whom she acted as a secretary and travelling companion. Juliette accompanied Hugo in his exile to the Channel Islands, and wrote thousands of letters to him throughout her life.
