Enjolras (French pronunciation: [ɑ̃ʒolʁa(s)]) is a fictional character who acts as the charismatic leader of the Friends of the ABC in the 1862 novel Les Misérables by Victor Hugo.

In both the novel and the musical that it inspired, Enjolras is a revolutionary who fights for a France with more free and equal rights for the poor, weak, sick, needy, disabled and oppressed masses, ultimately dying for his beliefs in the June 1832 rebellion.

[1] He is said to have the appearance of "long fair lashes, blue eyes, hair flying in the wind, rosy cheeks, pure lips, and exquisite teeth".

"[2]: 1030  In the same speech, he seems to draw a religious parallel, declaring the barricades of the failed 1832 uprising to be a place where "day embraces night, and says: I will die with thee and thou shalt be born again with me.

"[2]: 967 Enjolras is the leader of Les Amis de l'ABC (the Friends of the ABC), a group of radical French republican students.

Enjolras takes command of a barricade they construct in the Rue de la Chanvrerie, overseeing its fortification and defense.

The revolutionaries agree to defend it nevertheless; however, Enjolras argues that it is unnecessary for all to die, and insists that some few men escape disguised as Guardsmen.

Since the original publication of Les Misérables in 1862, the character of Enjolras has appeared in a number of adaptations in various media based on the novel, such as books, films,[3] musicals, plays and games.
