Yes. The third french revolution, after the second that put Louis d'Orleans on the throne.

I've read the book twice. The name and idea of Napoleon did not lack power in French politics at the time, and Hugo discusses his merits vs that of a democracy at length, although admittedly in imprecise and overly romanticised terms.

Word. A lot of people seem to think it's about 1789. Admittedly haven't read the book but I'm a bit surprised that Napoleon is such a central figure, given that he died prior to 1832. Figured the Bourbons or the Orleans would be more central. I guess it makes more sense considering Hugo was writing during the 2nd Empire.

Ah, yeah, you would think that. But honestly the Bourbons play a relatively small role in the book. Hugo takes more issue with the institutions of France under an uncaring government more than anything. Initially he rallies behind Napoleon, but towards the end of the book very much sides entirely with democracy. A lot of Hugos political commentary comes in essays interspersed throughout the book, and many of them focus heavily on French politics and the influence Bonaparte had on it. Bonapartists were still a huge political faction in France at the time.

>>9075468
Yeah get the full one, you miss a lot of Hugos historical and political commentary, and honestly bar a couple of egregious examples (that can be skipped without losing anything at all) like the Nunnery chapter and the sewers chapter, most of the divergances are enjoyable. Hugo was incredibly passionate and could bring it across in his writing like nobody else.

I think it would definitely have soured him on democracy as he viewed it then. Although I think he ended his life as an anarchist or a communist. He took part in the Paris commune in any event, so I think even then the cracks were showing in democracy as it existed.

some sort of communism, at the very least a strong anti-capitalism with a marxist flavoring, but I am pretty pragmatic - I could momentarily embrace many different kinds of movements if they fit the bill and gained momentum.

>What united the '60s generation was not the interest of all, but the needs and rights of each. 'Individualism' - the assertion of every person's claim to maximised private freedom and the unrestrained liberty to express autonomous desires and have them respected and institutionalised by society at large - became the left-wing watchword of the hour. Doing 'your own thing', 'letting it all hang out', 'making love, not war': these are not inherently unappealing goals, but they are of their essence private objectives, not public goods. Unsurprisingly, they led to the widespread assertion that 'the personal is political'.
>The politics of the '60s thus devolved into an aggregation of individual claims upon society and the state. 'Identity' began to colonise public discourse: private identity, sexual identity, cultural identity. From here it was but a short step to the fragmentation of radical politics, its metamorphosis into multiculturalism. Curiously, the new Left remained exquisitely sensitive to the collective attributes of humans in distant lands, where they could be gathered up into anonymous social categories like 'peasant', 'post-colonial', 'subaltern' and the like. But back home, the individual reigned supreme.
>However legitimate the claims of individuals and the importance of their rights, emphasising these carries an unavoidable cost: the decline of a shared sense of purpose. Once upon a time one looked to society - or class, or community - for one's normative vocabulary: what was good for everyone was by definition good for anyone. But the converse does not hold. What is good for one person may or may not be of value or interest to the other. Conservative philosophers of an earlier age understood this well, which was why they resorted to religious language and imagery to justify traditional authority and its claims upon each individual.
>But the individualism of the new Left respected neither collective purpose nor traditional authority: it was, after all, both new and left. What remained to it was the subjectivism of private - and privately-measured - interest and desire. This, in turn, invited a resort to aesthetic and moral relativism: if something is good for me it is not incumbent upon me to ascertain whether it is good for someone else - much less to impose it upon them ("do your own thing").
