Esmeralda is the deuteragonist of Disney's 1996 animated feature film, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, she's beloved 의해 all (and especially me), so here is an 기사 all about her. Though I'm sure due to the unpopularity of this club, very few people will get to red this article, but for the curious mind, here are some facts (and personal praise) of THE GYPSY ESMERALDA!
Description:
Esmeralda is a Romani gypsy residing underneath Paris, France, in the hidden catacombs known as the Court of Miracles. She is a member of the Romani culture, led 의해 Clopin, and works as an entertainment performer, 또는 더 많이 specifically, a dancer, both on the streets and during 더 많이 professional events, such as the Festival of Fools. She is regularly accompanied 의해 her goat, Djali, who acts as her pet, confidante, and assistant during her performances.
Esmeralda is verbally powerful, street-wise, cunning and morale. She was the sole individual in all of France to downright rebel against Frollo during his reign and was openly against the judge's accusations of claiming the Romani culture to be a gang of thieves who engage in unholy practices of witchcraft. Due to this, she was often the target of arrest, but as mentioned above, Esmeralda is a cunning, independent character, who was shown to have the talent of outsmarting and evading Frollo's grasp time and time again, despite the amount of odds against her. This would only erupt Frollo's tyranny further, but Esmeralda was not one to sacrifice her freedom for the sake of Frollo's suppression. Even when she is finally captured, and 초 away from death, she remained fiercely defiant, knowing her worth, and refusing to degrade herself 의해 surrendering to Frollo.
Aside from this fiery nature, Esmeralda is ultimately a kind, loving selfless soul underneath. She was the only human character in the film, for the first half, to ever show kindness towards the deformed and naïve Quasimodo. While Frollo and the rest of France viewed him as a monster, based on his appearance, Esmeralda felt otherwise, in spite of the initial shock in response to his appearance. Instead, she treated him as an average person, though with even 더 많이 patience and kindness, due to his innocent, gentle, and selfless nature—so much so, that her actions can be mistaken for romantic affections. However, this is not the case, as Esmeralda's 사랑 towards Quasimodo were strictly platonic, proving that forms of deep 사랑 and care don't always have to relate to romance. In reality, her 사랑 is Phoebus.
Though she seems to be a sultry and free-spirited person, the song "God Help the Outcasts" shows that Esmeralda cares about God and religion, as she turns to God in prayer at one point, praying for justice for the less fortunate and downtrodden. However, Esmeralda is not a fanatic, as Frollo is—For one, she does not get into a personal crisis 의해 her falling in 사랑 with Phoebus, and for another, lyrics during the song include "I don't know if 당신 can hear me, 또는 if you're even there", referring to God, showing that she is not totally convinced of his existence, but still hopes to be heard, nevertheless.
Canon Ending:
Esmeralda becomes Phoebus' wife and has a son named Zephyr. Even though she is happily married to Phoebus she still has strong friendship with Quasimodo and helps him whenever he needs it.
