The culmination of his poetic career, however, wasn't definitively published until 1883 as The Legend of the Ages. Early novels include The Last Day of a Condemned Man and Bug-Jargal which dramatized a slave revolt in Santo Domingo. His dramas include Inez de Castro and he outlined the tenets of romanticism in his "Preface to Cromwell." Probably best remembered for creating such characters as the gypsy Esmerelda, the heroine Cosette, and Inspector Javert, for ten points, identify this author of The Hunchback of Notre Dame and Les Miserables.
