We get another character study of Javert, one which builds on the first one and points out the ways in which he has changed. He’s the kind of man who, apparently, displays all his feelings on his face, making this another way in which he is diametrically opposed to Valjean. Javert spends this entire interview visibly upset, while Madeleine spends it serene and calm except for one moment at the start. We, the readers, can assume that there’s some pretty intense emotions going on in his head, but none of that makes it into his expression or his tone of voice.

We get a lot of good pithy descriptions of Javert, including my favorite, “a man who has never been agreeable and has always been patient." That seems to me to sum of Javert pretty effectively, really. Javert is not a man without virtues, but he is a man without softness. Even more than that, he is a man who has rejected softness -- he says it himself, that kindness is easy and justice hard (a statement that I, and possibly also Hugo, believe to be exactly backwards). When he is offered softness, he not only doesn’t want to accept it, he literally cannot. It contradicts every single thing he has worked towards so badly that it just doesn’t compute.

But that rigid adherence to a system that has already judged and condemned him is paired with a tendency to make himself the main character of his own story. Which is not a bad thing -- we should all be the main characters of our own stories -- but Javert seems to have accomplished the doublethink of doing so while telling himself that he has done something else. What he believes that he’s done is to put himself in his rightful place, to cede the stage to the rightful protagonists of society, namely the rich and powerful at the top of the hierarchy. They, he believes, should take center stage in the story, not only of society, but of Javert’s life and thought process. But in order to do that he’s constantly casting himself as a martyr to society, sometimes quite melodramatically. It feels like there’s part of Javert that realizes that what is happening, to him and to everyone like him, is not justice, and that the only way he can deal with this niggling realization is to cast himself as someone who is deliberately embracing these injustices and recasting them as just.

Jean Valjean externalized the injustices he faced and was on the way to doing his damnedest to punish society for them. Javert has internalized them and is instead punishing himself (and, by extension, everyone else) for them.

And Javert, in his entire fucked up tragedy of an existence, is here to ask the reader a single, deeply important question: “What use is there for Justice without Kindness?” We see the results of this kind of justice: We see them with Jean Valjean, with Fantine, with Javert. All of these people were judged according to the law of their society, in a way that, if everything is taken utterly dispassionately and with no attention to context, could be construed as Just. And this narrative is deeply invested in showing us how that Justice has done nothing but ruin lives. It hasn’t made society better, it hasn’t taught anyone anything. Justice without Kindness is functionally indistinguishable, in the world of this book, from outright Cruelty.

He was positively identified as Jean Valjean by several other convicts who were in the galleys at the same time as Valjean. Javert himself has seen this man and identified him as Jean Valjean. This man, if convicted, will be sentenced to the galleys for the rest of his life because of his criminal history. The trial will take place the next day.
