SUMMARY:The Convent Was Bad, Actually: We Have the Receipts
DESCRIPTION:Hugo spends two books interrogating the idea of convents and comes to a place of deep ambiguity–but then seems to unambiguously say that the convent was good for Valjean. Was it, though? Was it really? We will dig into the text and talk about how Valjean changes between volumes II and III, how much of that change can be pinned on the convent–and how much of it really was a good thing. Along the way we’ll talk about what Valjean got wrong about the bishop’s charge, tombs filled with light, locked doors, and what it means to be buried alive. (We’ll be grounding the discussion deeply in Hugo’s text, but this is a fan discussion not an academic one.)\n
