Cromwell

by Victor Hugo

Overview

Cromwell es una obra teatral compuesta de cinco actos, escrita por Victor Hugo en 1827. La obra no fue representada en su época. Es a la vez un retrato histórico de la Inglaterra del siglo XVII y del Lord protector Oliver Cromwell. Sus cambios de decorado, y la misma elección de la temática (una historia relativamente próxima) hacen de ella un ejemplo de obra romántica, pues rompe radicalmente con las tradiciones clásicas.

About the Author

"If a writer wrote merely for his time, I would have to break my pen and throw it away," the larger-than-life Victor Hugo once confessed. Indeed, this 19th-century French author's books — from the epic drama Les Misérables to the classic unrequited love story The Hunchback of Notre Dame — have spanned the ages, their themes of morality and redemption as applicable to our times as to his.
