Wyatt's My Galley Charged with Forgetfulness relies heavily on metaphor and imagery. Through intimation of such literary devices, as well as language and tone, Wyatts suggests, through the metaphor of the galley's course, that life is meant to run an intentioned course with purpose. Through the course of the poem unfolds a strong sense of despair in the realization that such purpose is lost; it is not there. The poem is laden with tones of desolation. In the beginning there are images painting

However, Valjean is still tempted

JVJ is serving time for stealing bread for his starving niece and nephew, and Javert made the decision to imprison him, regardless of JVJ’s situation. However Javert himself “was born in a prison. His mother was a fortune teller whose husband was in the galleys. He grew up to think himself without the pale of society, and despaired of ever entering it. He noticed that society
Punishing the unlawful, undesirable and deviant members of society is an aspect of criminal justice that has experienced a variety of transformations throughout history. Although the concept of retribution has remained a constant (the idea that the law breaker must somehow pay his/her debt to society), the methods used to enforce and achieve that retribution has changed a great deal.

Jean was turned cold and cruel by this, he thought that the whole world was as cruel as Javert seemed to be. This cruelty only leads Jean into more trouble. "See, there is where he got out; he jumped down Cochefilet lane. The abominable fellow! He has stolen our silver!" (Page 37) This shows that even after Jean was released from the galleys he was hardened from the influences and
known as Simonides' legs in the book. This is also a big difference because, in the book Mullach is the one that takes Judah to the circus. Some of the small differences in the movie do not change the movie. How they call Ben-Hur number 41 on the galley ship in the movie and number 60 in the book is an example of a small difference. Another small difference is how Judah's house was not waxed when he got back in the movie. Either way, he still entered the house and finds Amrah/Esther there. One more

their loft addresses issues of female agency—it is the confrontations within the Ranieri’s art gallery which best articulate the crossroads of art, violence, gender, sexuality, and power explored by the film. It is here that the “imagery of [the] galley sequence disorients the viewer, setting up one set of expectations and then subverting them in a manner both unsettling and memorable” (McDonagh 49). In the space of the gallery, our perceptions about the agency of the protagonist and the gender of

After always feeling superior to the people of the galleys, Javert’s finds his sudden “respect” for Jean Valjean
