巴黎圣母院大火的消息让无数人惋惜,更有人替小说《巴黎圣母院》中的角色卡西莫多叹息不已。
卡西莫多,是法国文学家维克多·雨果创作的《巴黎圣母院》里的人物,拥有丑陋的外表和一颗善良的心。他是被被父母遗弃在巴黎圣母院门前的畸形儿,一直生活在巴黎圣母院内,作为钟楼的敲钟人。
很多人替卡西莫多惋惜其钟楼倒塌了,但事实上此次大火中,两个钟楼均被抢救了下来。据BBC报道,拥有850年历史的巴黎圣母院由于大火,塔尖和屋顶发生坍塌,但整体结构未被破坏,同时两个塔钟也得以保留下来。目前巴黎圣母院大火起因尚不明确,但官方表示本次起火可能和最近巴黎圣母院进行的整修有关。
但根据BBC的事实报道,巴黎圣母院主体架构和两个钟楼得以保留。“The 850-year-old Gothic building's spire and roof have collapsed but the main structure, including the two bell towers, has been saved” 大火于当地时间下午6:30开始,并迅速达到屋顶。大约500名消防员参与救火,以防其中一个钟楼倒塌。救火过程大约持续了4小时后,消防队长Jean-Claude Gallet表示巴黎圣母院主结构得以保留下来。
巴黎圣母院作为雨果不朽之作《巴黎圣母院》的主体发生地,多年来萦绕着浓厚的文化与宗教氛围。其书中用离奇和对比手法描写15世纪巴黎圣母院副主教克罗德道貌岸然、蛇蝎心肠,先爱后恨,迫害吉ト赛女郎埃斯梅拉达,面目丑陋、心地善良的钟楼怪人卡西莫多舍身救女郎的故事。雨果真实刻画法国15世纪生活,运用浪漫主义对照手法的方式加之揭露宗教丑陋底层人民善良的主题使作品广为传颂,成为不朽的名篇。
以下是来自BBC的报道原文:
A major fire has engulfed the medieval cathedral of Notre-Dame in Paris, one of France's most famous landmarks.
The 850-year-old Gothic building's spire and roof have collapsed but the main structure, including the two bell towers, has been saved, officials say.
Firefighters are still working to contain the blaze as teams try to salvage the artwork stored inside.
President Emmanuel Macron called it a "terrible tragedy". The cause of the fire is not yet clear.
Officials say it could be linked to the renovation work that began after cracks appeared in the stone, sparking fears the structure could become unstable.
Paris prosecutor's office said it had opened an inquiry into "accidental destruction by fire". A firefighter was seriously injured while tackling the blaze.
Visibly emotional, Mr Macron said the "worst had been avoided" and vowed to launch an international fundraising scheme to rebuild the cathedral.
