Excerpt from The Power Holder Regaining Authority extracted from V. Hugo's Les Misérables, impresses readers with its powerful depiction of the scene following Phangtin's death. A serene atmosphere envelops the room, and Giang Van-giang's actions evoke a profound sense of compassion and the power of human kindness, transforming tragedy into romance.
The image of Giang Van-giang firmly grasping Gia-ve's hand as he pulls at his coat signifies the man's resilience, as he endeavors to reclaim his authority. Gia-ve, genuinely afraid, dares not move as he watches Giang Van-giang poised to strike back at any moment. Yet, when faced with Phangtin, the pitiful woman, living a life of shame and selling herself to survive, even in death unable to close her eyes without regrets, he tenderly cares for her with utmost kindness, infinite love, and utmost reverence, akin to a mother caring for her child. All unfolds in silence, a silence that fills the room, tense atmosphere suddenly softens, and he whispers something into Phangtin's ear, so gentle and affectionate. No one knows what he says, even the deceased, can she hear? But as V. Hugo said, 'There are touching illusions, perhaps lofty truths,' and through the words of Sister Examplex, a nun who never lies, she saw Phangtin's bewildered smile on her pale lips and in her distant eyes. So was that smile real? No one knows, but the nun would not lie. At this moment, 'Death means entering a realm of great light,' for Phangtin, death is not necessarily bad but perhaps a new beginning, rescuing her from the dark and sordid place, in the other world, she might live better. When Giang Van-giang kneels down to kiss Phangtin's hand, we see a profound respect, a farewell full of deep affection from this compassionate man, who has enough tolerance to pity those miserable souls like Phangtin, who had to sell their bodies cheaply, perhaps only scorn and contempt. It is this that highlights the lofty, infinite tolerance of Giang Van-giang, willing to embrace the unhappiest lives, and no one cares about them.
The romantic artistry begins to build from the serene setting of the room, seemingly disregarding all but the two individuals conversing in silence, one living and one deceased. Particularly, Giang Van-giang's sequences of respectful mourning for Phangtin, performed in a sequence, gently and meticulously, demonstrate the noble character of Giang Van-giang, embodying this character as a representative of deep humanity and compassion for the unfortunate destinies. Furthermore, Phangtin's death, initially thought a tragedy, is romanticized by Hugo's profound philosophies, death is not an end, just a transition to a new realm, where there is greater light, washing away all the darkness of life in this existence. Thus, light is the true good, revealing the human soul, while darkness is the evil that envelops life, plunging people into misery, hence Phangtin might have reached the place she needed to be, ending all the filthy stains of the present.
