The Daily
Notre-Dame Rises From the Ashes
Michael Kimmelman
Notre Dame, for him, represented France. And so its recovery, its preservation, was about France's preservation, its heritage, its strength. Hugo had no... particular patience with the church, but he believed that the building itself meant a lot to the nation. And that book came at the same time as a movement was rising in France to preserve its heritage.
