Summary "De Ellendigen (Deel 1 van 5)" by Victor Hugo is a novel written in the early 19th century. The story introduces us to Charles-François-Bienvenu Myriel, the bishop of Digne, and explores themes of justice, morality, and compassion within a deeply hierarchical society. The tale appears to be centered around the character of Myriel and his journey toward embodying the principles of charity and selflessness against a backdrop of social unrest and personal tragedies. The opening of the novel sets the scene in the year 1815, detailing the life of Bishop Myriel, a man who has lived through the upheaval of the French Revolution and has returned to France to serve as a bishop. As he takes up his new position, the narrative delves into his character and past, presenting him as a kind-hearted and humble man devoted to helping others, particularly the poor and suffering. Despite the disapproval from the more privileged classes around him, Myriel's commitment to his faith and to the welfare of the downtrodden remains steadfast. The opening chapters lay the groundwork for a story that promises to intertwine personal redemption with the broader struggles of society, hinting at the transformative journey that lies ahead.
