Instead, The Hunchback of Notre Dame was actually written to renew interest and respect for French architecture, particularly the enormous Notre Dame cathedral, which Hugo felt was at risk of being forever altered by newer architectural styles. Oddly enough, however, Quasimodo’s difficult life and the subsequent care that Esmeralda showed for him were not at the forefront of Hugo’s intent when he wrote the novel. Since then, the character of Quasimodo and his devotion to its protagonist Esmeralda has made The Hunchback of Notre Dame one of the most widely known tales of all time. Originally titled Notre Dame de Paris, it wasn’t until 1833 when author Victor Hugo’s tale about the famous Parisian cathedral and its hunchbacked bell ringer Quasimodo was translated into English, officially becoming The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
Disney’s Hunchback of Notre Dame has risen in popularity after the titular cathedral's fire.
