Jane Eyre truly revolutionized fiction and paved the way for modern day literature. Most books were not written in first person perspective, but Charlotte Brontë used it to create a sense of intemacy.
Jane Eyre tells the story of a female protagonist looking for agency and meaning.
“Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong! - I have as much soul as you, - and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you!”
Jane Eyre is active and fights back and stands by her values.
“I can live alone, if self-respect, and circumstances require me so to do. I need not sell my soul to buy bliss. I have an inward treasure born with me, which can keep me alive if all extraneous delights should be withheld, or offered only at a price I cannot afford to give.”
And although I am not a big fan of Rochester (
“Every atom of your flesh is as dear to me as my own: in pain and sickness it would still be dear.”
It's just so beautifully written.
“If all the world hated you and believed you wicked, while your own conscience approved of you and absolved you from guilt, you would not be without friends.”
