Ellendigen - Deel 5 - Jean Valjean

by Victor Hugo

‘Ellendigen’ is een vertaling van Victor Hugo’s ‘Les Misérables’, een meesterwerk uit de 19e eeuw dat zich richt op de sociale ongelijkheid en de wreedheid van het rechtssysteem in Frankrijk. Het verhaal volgt Jean Valjean, een ex-gevangene die worstelt om een nieuw leven op te bouwen, terwijl hij voortdurend achtervolgd wordt door zijn verleden. Doorheen zijn reis ontmoet hij een diverse cast van karakters, waaronder de arme Fantine, de jonge Cosette, de revolutionaire Marius, en de wrede Javert. De roman is een pleidooi voor medemenselijkheid, vergeving en rechtvaardigheid, en exploreert thema's zoals armoede, liefde, geweld, revolutionaire idealen en de zoektocht naar identiteit. Het vijfde deel, ‘Jean Valjean’, focust op de laatste levensjaren van de hoofdpersoon en zijn voortdurende confrontatie met zijn verleden en de complexiteit van zijn eigen morele keuzes. Het is een krachtig en meeslepend verhaal over de kracht van menselijke wil en de strijd tegen de onrechtvaardigheid van de maatschappij.
