From the Paper
"The struggle between good and evil is a primary subject in art and literature, and the conception of evil that is adopted by the artist determines the way that struggle is depicted. Novelists Charlotte Bront? in Jane Eyre and Charles Dickens in Hard Times show different conceptions of evil, conceptions that shape the way they portray their characters and the struggle of those characters with their own personal battle with good and evil. Evil for Bront? is a palpable entity in the world, deriving from a metaphysical and psychological framework and thus with a strong religious underpinning that infuses not only the acts of human beings but the very landscape within which they interact. That view of evil is not found in Dickens, where evil is rather a more truly human product. For Dickens, evil is to be found in the destructive institutions of society and in class ... "

From the Paper
"Most people connect red as the color of fire. In the beginning chapter of "Jane Eyre" written by Charlotte Bronte, Jane is put in the "red" room. Red and fire are important symbols in this story. Often these symbols show the struggle Jane has to become independent and to find happiness and a sense of belonging. The beginning chapter of Jane Eyre begins with the fireplace where Eliza, John, and Georgiana cluster around their mother. Fire and red are two symbols that Bronte uses throughout the book in many different forms and shapes as she leads the reader to grasp the importance of Jane becoming independent and not afraid in order to find happiness in her life. In the beginning chapter Jane is hurt by John who started a fight, but Jane is the one punished. "

Abstract
This paper explains that, although masculinity is not a central theme in Charlotte Bronte's "Jane Eyre", it is important, as seen in the two main male characters - Edward Rochester and St. John Rivers. The author points out that, when Bronte wrote the novel, her image of masculinity was men who were rough around the edges, mysterious, gruff and in need of reformation. The paper compares the villain and dark character, Edward Rochester with the hero, St. John Rivers, examines how they interact with Jane and looks at the issue of masculinity.
From the Paper
"It is unfortunate that Mr. Rochester so often strays from the moral path, because Jane obviously goes through a lot of emotional pain from all of the problems that he causes her. Even though she suffers, though, she does not complain. She simply accepts her lot in life and goes one with what she should be doing. In many ways, she is very admirable, and she is stronger than Mr. Rochester. She has more self-control than Mr. Rochester as well, and she sees where her moral duty lies."

Abstract
This paper explains that the protagonist Bertha Mason, who never consents to society's restrictions on women's behavior in Charlotte Bronte's "Jane Eyre", symbolizes the oppression of women by the patriarchal system where men are the interpreters and enforcers of social and political rules. The author points out that Bertha is interested in neither social acceptance nor self respect; her childhood experiences did not teach her to comply with social rules. The paper relates the story and concludes that, although Bertha's conduct seems inappropriate according to the norms of nineteenth century middle class society, it cannot be definitely diagnosed as mental illness.
From the Paper
"Rochester is "ignorant, raw and inexperienced" and is "dazzled" by Bertha's beauty. After the marriage he realizes that he "never loved, never esteemed nor even knew her" and that he was "not sure of the existence of one virtue in her nature, neither modestly nor benevolence nor candor nor refinement in her mind of manners." Rochester criticizes Bertha's behavior in the context of morality and intellect, but his belief in her madness is arbitrary. Her behavior tends to be more demanding and self indulgent than insane: "No servant would bear the continued outbreaks of her violent and unreasonable temper, or the vexations of her absurd, contradictory, exacting orders.""

Abstract
This paper examines the striking similarities of the characters, Jane and Bertha in "Jane Eyre", and the underlying psychological messages Bronte places within the novel.
From the Paper
"Another example of how Bertha serves as an outlet for Jane?s repressed emotion can be seen when Bertha rips Jane's veil in half. It is interesting to note how this scene occurs after Jane is forced to try on dresses, secretly resenting the fact that Rochester is dressing her like a doll. Later she tells him that she does not want to give up governessing after they are married. She tells him, ?I will not be your English Celine Varens.? These scenes indicate how Jane wants to marry but only on her own terms."

Charlotte Bronte's "Jane Eyre", 1990.

From the Paper
"This paper will discuss the inner conflict experienced by Jane Eyre in her unique way of showing love toward Mr. Rochester in the novel Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte. It can be seen that there are three basic levels on which Jane's inner conflict takes place. These are: (1) the struggle between her self-control and her desire to express her emotions of love; (2) the struggle between the male dominance of her time and her desire to be free and equal; and (3) the struggle between her spiritual and moral values and her desire for a physical relationship with Rochester. Through the resolutions of these conflicts, Jane Eyre experiences a sense of growth by the end of the novel. Therefore, rather than being a simple love story, Jane Eyre expresses the theme of an "inner evolution of the true self, and the full nature of the free individual in relationship"."

Abstract
This paper explains that gothic novels often establish a sense of mystery which is aided, to a greater or lesser extent, by some involvement with supernatural forces, often relying on religious
conventions for expression in the text. In Charlotte Bronte's "Jane Eyre", this sense of religious or supernatural mystery allows Jane to expostulate from her double-narrative point of view on the suspicious happenings at Thornfield House, where Jane is employed as a governess. The author points out that the role of religion can be seen in many ways in the novel using the characters Mr. Brocklehurst, St. John Rivers, Jane (the protagonist) and Rochester as the opposite of the role of religion. The paper relates that "Jane Eyre" takes place in a
society plagued by situations in which women are regarded as religious angels who are kept in a state of either decorative consumption or holistic servitude.
From the Paper
"When Jane is relating to Mr. Brocklehurst at the school, he is a religious figure who gives mandates and constantly draws attention to the faults of others. Like St. John Rivers later in the novel, this character represents what Jane sees to be religious authority, and its goal towards her life is apparently repressive in nature. "And I was placed there, by whom I don't know: I was in no condition to not particulars; I was only aware that they had hoisted me up to the height of Mr. Brocklehurst's nose, and that a spread of shot orange and purple silk pelisses, and a cloud of silvery plumage extended and waved
below me. (He said) 'You see she is yet young... Who would think that the Evil One had already found a servant and agent in her?'" (Bronte). It can be seen therefore that Brocklehurst represents a sort of oppression over Jane in terms of influencing perceptions of her early in the novel."

From the Paper
"This research will discuss Jane Eyre as an example of 19th century English literary heroines, this fictional character's narrow sense of herself and her destiny. One expert says, "From the first time that we meet her, defying the two most oppressive monsters of the Reed household, till we leave her, confident of living happily ever after, Jane possesses a singular integrity". Even in the early chapters of Jane Eyre, she demonstrates a firm belief in her own conduct according to moral principles. Having been punished for things she was not responsible for, she states, "Unjust!..unjust!" and her reason incites her "resolve . . . to achieve escape from unsupportable oppression" by either running away or refusing any nourishment and allowing herself to die .
Because of the dreadful situation in the Reed household and ... "

From the Paper
"This study will analyze Charlotte Bronte's "Jane Eyre", focusing on the nature, degree and significance of Rochester's dependence on Jane. The study will argue that this dependence evolves gradually, becomes intensely powerful and obsessive, and finally serves as an important factor in the moral and/or spiritual evolution of both Jane and Rochester. In addition, there is a strongly feminist edge to the morality of the book, and this feminism is in large part expressed in the complete transformation of the relationship between Rochester and Jane Eyre.
There is no doubt whatsoever that Rochester does indeed become almost entirely dependent on Jane by the end of the book. He has been blinded in the effort to save his wife in the fire, and Jane's return to him gives both of them the opportunity to ... "

Charlotte Bronte's "Jane Eyre", 1994.

From the Paper
"In Jane Eyre by Emily Bront?, the character of Jane has relationships with Edward Rochester and with St. John Rivers, relationships that take on a very different character and that contrast different aspects of human interaction. The two men are very different, and their effect on Jane and the manner in which she deals with each illuminates the themes of the novel and illustrates the character of Jane in the structure of the novel. One of the primary concerns in the novel is with love, the meaning of love, and the ability of the individual to find love and to be worthy of it once found. Jane's relationships with these two men provide the basis for the analysis of this issue.
The two relationships represent different responses to the need for love and hence different kinds of love, and Bront? juxtaposes the two in order to make this comparison explicit."

Abstract
This paper explains that Charlotte Bronte's fiercely independent protagonist, Jane Eyre, struggles to enhance her societal standing without sacrificing her self-identity, which offers an encouraging vision for social change. The author points out that, while part of Jane wanted to succumb to the advances of Rochester, she did not want to be a woman destined to idolize and obey a man above all others. The paper stresses that, by leaving Rochester and the home that she loved, Jane showed moral courage. The author underscores that Jane's resilience helped her eventually find love, respectability and a partner with whom she would share her life. The paper includes several quotations.
From the Paper
"Bronte used Jane as a pawn to depict the hardships during the 19th century. Jane's tenacity and drive is put to a test as she embarks on a journey of self-discovery. But, while other women in 19th century England were seeking husbands who would marry them, Jane knew typical marriage in those terms wouldn't suffice and would never be enough for her. She needed a friend and partner with whom she could share a life. "... It is thoughtless to condemn them or laugh at them if they seek to learn more than custom has pronounced necessary for their sex.""

An exploration of the theme of rebellion and conformity In ?Jane Eyre?.

Abstract
This paper focuses on the elements of rebellion and conformity that make frequent appearances in Charlotte Bronte?s novel, ?Jane Eyre?. It looks at the many instances of rebellion and also the few occasions when the protagonist chooses to conform to societal and religious traditions. It shows how the book could be considered a healthy and balanced blend of defiance and peaceful surrender and explores the reasons for it being one of the best-known works of the Victorian era.
From the Paper
"In Jane Eyre, we notice those first few sparks of rebellion, which later resulted in active feminist movement in England. While the novel itself is not free from Victorian strictures, there are certain moments when an independent rebellious voice surfaces and takes hold of the very proper and logical Jane Eyre. We need to understand that the novel itself is not about rebellion or conformity, as some novels of early 20th century, but it does contains thought-provoking instances which allows the readers to get a glimpse of a repressed feminist streak of the novelist. Even though it cannot be completely regarded as a feminist novel, it certainly can be termed as the first novel, which passively and rather subtly discarded the Victorian restrictions. But in Jane Eyre what really puzzles the readers is the quick and complete behavioral transformation of the protagonist when she enters into adulthood."

Abstract
This paper looks at the way the book portrays social structures of the British Industrial Revolution and the effects thatThe First Reform Bill had on the social classes of the time.
From the Paper
"Charlotte Bronte?s novel Jane Eyre was written in 1847, fifteen years after the First Reform Bill passed into English law prompting changes to the political power structure. It was a time when the British Industrial Revolution redistributed wealth and redefined social class. Bronte provides her readers with glimpses into the uncertain social structure of the Victorian Era. She demonstrates the blurring of the lines as her protagonist Jane Eyre successfully navigates the spaces dividing the classes, and Bronte shows how class mobility supports rather than dilutes the wealth of the nation."
