About “Cromwell”

Cromwell is a play written by Victor Hugo in 1827. It was shaped by the ideas of Hugo's literary circle, which saw itself as part of the Romantic movement. This group preferred the style of William Shakespeare over that of Classicist playwrights like Jean Racine and Pierre Corneille. The play reflects the values and artistic choices of the Romanticists of that time. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
