Jane Eyre
I am writing you to inform you about the wonderful literary novel Jane Eyre, written by the great Charlotte Bronte. She writes with such detail during the scenes of pain, that gives the reader insight into the life of Bronte. She must have gone through something similar or studied it thoroughly. The compliance to John Reed and Mrs. Reed's brutality is without a doubt empowered by a youth of pain and suffering. I believe that Bronte experienced the same "noble" revenge such as Jane gives to Mrs. Reed before she left for Lowood. I also trust that Bronte had been in a boarding school of some sort to be able to describe in such detail a place such as Lowood. Although I feel I must admit that I was not enthused to read this novel at first, for these long drawn out dramas from the Victorian age are not my cup of tea. Nevertheless, as I began to investigate further, I found that my premature speculations didn't ring true for this novel. It was very deep in comparison to the others I had experienced. As I read the Cinderella story at the beginning, I was already dreading when the unrealistic fairy godmother would rescue her and all would be happy again. Yet, to my surprise the nurse was just as harsh an
The universal theme of this novel as far as I can tell is to have faith even during the most dire of situations. We denounce ourselves to gloom when we give up all hope. Jane frequently evades a frightful life of unhappiness through optimism and craftiness. Cunning is the definite theme in this novel. Three motifs in my opinion would have to be the random personal narratives, the short-sentenced scenes of action and argument, which provides a swift pace on the mind of the audience. These may not be considered motifs per se, but I deem them very close to what a motif is. The weather as a literary tool guarantees that any booklover can make some prediction in the book, providing a good quality equilibrium with the suspense. When winter struck Lowood, the reader can sense tragedy and when spring came we can see the flourishing tranquility. Based on the rough path ridden by Jane thus far in the plot, and the abrupt ease of Jane's life now, I expect a profound catastrophe to hit Jane at her new setting of Thornfield. People such as Jane cannot exist in absolute harmony. They will time after time be wounded by citizens who desire to have half of what Jane has in herself. She will have to turn upon her prior experiences and cunning to get out and move on, because from what I gather from Jane now she is a fighter and for the sake of not sounding profoundly corny she will survive. <
