What lesson does val jean learn from the bishop at the beginning of Les Miserables?
In the beginning of Les Miserables, Jean Valjean, an ex-convict out on parole, is given shelter by a kind Bishop. Later, when Valjean is caught by the authorities after trying to steal the Bishop's silver, the Bishop lies to the men, telling them the silver had been a gift, and gives Valjean candlesticks as well. Valjean realizes that the world is not devoid of kind people, and is both inspired and shamed by the Bishop, who claims that he has rescued Valjean's soul "for God." In the musical version, Valjean then claims, "I feel my shame inside me like a knife." He also marvels, "What spirit comes to move my life? Is there another way to go?" Thus, the lesson he learns from the Bishop is that there is still the possibility for him to start a new life; that "another story must begin."

Why is Jean-Paul Sartre's existentialist play titled Huis Clos No Exit?
It is titled 'Huis Clos' because the characters are trapped with other people who are their hell. They cannot escape from each other and are damned to be with them for all eternity. Near the end of the play when the door flies open, Garcin cannot even exit because he needs Ines' approval that he is not a coward. Even with an exit right in front of them, they cannot escape the ridicule of others. The famous quote, "L'enfer, c'est les autres" means hell is other people. This is the primary concept Sartre develops, and he does so in a one act play where all characters are condemned to one space.
