in french literature, the most prominent inheritor of scott's style of the historical novel was balzac. in 1829 balzac published "les chouans", a historical work in the manner of sir walter scott. this was subsequently incorporated into la comédie humaine. the bulk la comédie humaine, however, takes place during the bourbon restoration and the july monarchy, though there are several novels which take place during the french revolution and others which take place of in the middle ages or the renaissance, including "about catherine de medici" and "the elixir of long life". victor hugo's "the hunchback of notre dame" (1831) furnishes another 19th-century example of the romantic-historical novel. victor hugo began writing "the hunchback of notre-dame" in 1829, largely to make his contemporaries more aware of the value of the gothic architecture, which was neglected and often destroyed to be replaced by new buildings, or defaced by replacement of parts of buildings in a newer style. the action takes place in 1482 and the title refers to the notre dame cathedral in paris, on which the story is centred. alexandre dumas also wrote several popular historical fiction novels, including "the count of monte cristo" and "the three musketeers". george saintsbury stated: ""monte cristo" is said to have been at its first appearance, and for some time subsequently, the most popular book in europe." this popularity has extended into modern times as well. the book was "translated into virtually all modern languages and has never been out of print in most of them. there have been at least twenty-nine motion pictures based on it ... as well as several television series, and many movies [have] worked the name 'monte cristo' into their titles."
