Answer:

Hunchback of Notre-Dame is a book by Victor Hugo. With its publication in 1831, the work, which is also known by the name of Notre-Dame de Paris, is considered a historical novel.

Explanation:

The central figure of the work is Quasimodo, a deformed and lame man adopted by Claudio Frollo, the archdeacon of the Cathedral. After meeting the gypsy Esmeralda, the hunchback goes through several risky experiences to impress the girl, which does not match her feelings to the same extent. In Victor Hugo's work, Esmeralda can be considered a creature of supreme beauty, almost a goddess. In this way, Frollo also falls in love with the woman, disputing her with Quasimodo. In this respect, the novel presents two different types of love. While the religious has a huge passion for Esmeralda, desiring her sexually, Quasimodo loves the Gypsy in another way. She has a great feeling of affection for the woman and seeks to be always close to help her.
