Krátky popis
The profound emotion felt around the world upon seeing images of
Notre-Dame in flames opens up a series of questions: Why was
everyone so deeply moved? Why does Notre-Dame so clearly
crystallise what our civilisation is about? What makes 'Our Lady of
Paris' the soul of a nation and a symbol of human achievement? What
is it that speaks so directly to us today?In answer, Agnes Poirier
turns to the defining moments in Notre-Dame's history. Beginning
with the laying of the corner stone in 1163, she recounts the
conversion of Henri IV to Catholicism, the coronation of Napoleon,
Victor Hugo's nineteenth-century campaign to preserve the
cathedral, Baron Haussmann's clearing of the streets in front of
it, the Liberation in 1944, the 1950s film of The Hunchback of
Notre-Dame, starring Gina Lollobrigida and Anthony Quinn, and the
state funeral of Charles de Gaulle, before returning to the
present. The conflict over Notre-Dame's reconstruction promises to
be fierce.Nothing short of a cultural war is already brewing
between the wise and the daring, the sincere and the opportunist,
historians and militants, the devout and secularists. It is here
that Poirier reveals the deep malaise - gilet jaunes and all - at
the heart of the France.
