Produced by Carlo Traverso, Anne Dreze, Marc D'Hooghe and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team "Actes et Paroles, Volume 2: Pendant l'exil 1852-1870" by Victor Hugo is a collection of reflections and political writings penned during the mid-19th century. The work offers a deep insight into Hugo's thoughts and experiences during his exile after opposing Louis Napoleon’s coup d'état. It focuses on themes of justice, freedom, and the moral implications of exile, illustrating both the personal and societal sufferings inflicted by tyranny and oppression. The opening of the book sets the stage for Hugo's meditations on exile, where he discusses the concepts of law, force, and the moral weight of being a proscribed individual. He articulates that while the exiled may suffer from physical separation, it is the tyrants who inflict greater spiritual and ethical damage upon themselves. Hugo reflects on his own feelings of isolation, alongside the beauty and power of truth in the face of oppression. As he begins his journey through exile—from Belgium to Jersey—Hugo underscores the solidarity among proscribed individuals and the communal determination to uphold the ideals of the Republic, even from afar. The prose is rich with philosophical musings, painting a vivid picture of struggle, hope, and resilience against tyranny.
