artistic features
Notre Dame de Paris, as a romantic masterpiece, is precisely because the author strives to conform to the original nature and portray the real life of medieval French society with excellent techniques and romantic forms.
The author makes full use of the romantic contrast between beauty and ugliness put forward in the Preface to Cromwell, and describes the good and evil, the beauty and ugliness, the sublime and the humble, and exaggerates some characteristics in the arrangement of environment, events, plots and the shaping of characters, resulting in strong contrast.
Quasimodo is ugly in appearance, deformed in body and out of five senses, but he is kind-hearted, brave in action and noble in mind, which happens to be in sharp contrast with the vice bishop Claude who is hypocritical in appearance and despicable in heart.
