'Oliver Cromwell' was written in 1827, but was not performed until 1956. The reasons were its length of almost 7000 verses and Hugo's gigantic list of characters. The drama tells the story of Oliver Cromwell's internal conflicts in being offered the crown of England. The preface is nowadays considered as one of the manifestos of the Romantic movement.
