| Publisher Description: La L gende des si cles (The Legend of the Ages) is a collection of poems by Victor Hugo, conceived as an immense depiction of the history and evolution of humanity. Written intermittently between 1855 and 1876 while Hugo worked in exile on numerous other projects, the poems were published in three series in 1859, 1877, and 1883. Bearing witness to the unparalleled poetic talent evident in all Hugo's art, the L gende des Si cles is often considered the only true French epic and, according to Baudelaire's formulation, the only modern epic possible. |
