A standard violin has four strings, tuned in perfect fifths to the notes G, D, A, and E (from lowest to highest pitch), though some electric or specialized violins can have five or more. These four strings provide the ideal range and clarity for classical and most other musical styles, making the G-D-A-E setup the universal standard.

Who wrote "The Hunchback of Notre Dame"?

The Hunchback of Notre-Dame (French: Notre-Dame de Paris, lit. 'Our Lady of Paris', originally titled Notre-Dame de Paris. 1482) is a French Gothic novel by Victor Hugo, published in 1831. The title refers to the Notre-Dame Cathedral, which features prominently throughout the novel. It focuses on the unfortunate story of Quasimodo, the Romani street dancer Esmeralda, and Quasimodo's guardian the Archdeacon Claude Frollo in 15th-century Paris. All its elements—the Renaissance setting, impossible love affairs and marginalised characters—make the work a model of the literary themes of Romanticism.
