"Pour la Serbie" (For Serbia) is a speech written by Victor Hugo, on 29 August 1876, and published the following day in the French newspaper Le Rappel; it was later included in Actes et Paroles (Words and Deeds) Hugo's collected political writings.[1]
Content
In this text, Hugo delivers a plea protesting against the impassivity of European governments in the face of the massacre committed by the Ottoman during the Serbo-Turkish War.[2] Hugo's eloquent appeal is calling European governments to take action, and people to raise their voices in universal indignation. This speech is considered as one of the founding acts of the European idea.[3][4]
