The Redemption of Jean Valjean (S5, E7)
Manage episode 426582849 series 3405520
Redemption is the process by which a man regains or acquires virtue in an effort to better his life. Whether it comes about as an atonement for wrongdoing or a realization that a life of sin will never bring fulfillment, redemption is the path toward a life of virtue. One of world literature’s most profound examples of redemption is the hardened convict Jean Valjean, the principal character in French author Victor Hugo’s legendary 1862 novel Les Misérables. At the heart of the story is Jean Valjean, a man who only knew hate before he learned to love.
