Fantine in the play symbolizes the suffering of that era. She was played by people, by society, and finally destroyed her.
Sheriff Javert is a symbol of the law of that world, with no mercy. In the end he jumped into the Seine
Jean Valjean stands for justice and kindness.
And little Cosette represented all the good in that world.
Do you think the Denatis have an ugly heart? In fact, no, it was the society at that time that caused their ugliness. Everything Denati does is for the survival of her family. Their ugliness was an indictment of blood and tears in that world at that time. In fact, they are also very poor. Especially Denati's eldest daughter, who fell in love with someone but no one ever loved her. In the end, she died for the beloved (I feel she is not only pitiful but also very cute).
No matter how ugly the society is, it will only make the little people "kill" each other, and will not affect the big people. So the French have to resist. In short, everyone is a victim of the times.
The archbishop and Jean Valjean illuminated that world with the brilliance of their humanity. But they didn't change anything either. Let us reflect on ourselves. The best way to describe China today is to use Dickens' words. "It was the best of times and the worst of times."
He rests in peace. Despite the ill-fated,
he still survived. He is dead without his angels;
things happen naturally,
as night falls and day goes down. (Inscription on Jean Valjean's tombstone)
