"Bug-Jargal" by Victor Hugo is a novel written in the early 19th century. The story centers around Captain Leopoldo d’Auverney and the complexities of his life during the slave rebellion in Santo Domingo in 1791. The narrative explores themes of love, loyalty, and the intersecting lives of both enslaved Africans and their French masters. At the start of "Bug-Jargal," we are introduced to Captain d’Auverney, who is initially reluctant to share his life experiences, evoking curiosity among his comrades. His well-loved dog, Rask, returns to him through the efforts of Sergeant Tadeo, and D’Auverney reflects on his past filled with loss and pain. The story hints at a significant yet mysterious character, Pierrot, who seems to challenge the norms of slavery, evoking respect and admiration from fellow slaves, despite his status. The early chapters set the stage for deeper explorations into the relationships between characters, the social upheaval of the time, and the moral dilemmas surrounding slavery.
