Jane Eyre Essay Topic Benni
I think Jane's strong religious morals and her doctrine of endurance determine her fate. She stands up for herself rarely, but when she does it has major affects on herself and other characters in the book. For instance, when she stands up to John Reed she gets locked in the red room, and when her religious morals prevent her from marrying Rochester she is homeless and lost. In my essay I will be explaining these themes more in depth and providing more details and examples/quotes from the book.

The end of the novel, which concludes not with Jane and Rochester, but with St. John, certainly does raise this question of just what does Bronte think of traditional religious views. On the one hand, Jane doesn't go to India with him, but on the other, Rochester does seem to acknowledge that God has delivered some sort of smack down on him. So what's up with that? I'll be interested in which you decide--Jane's resiting all the way, or Helen's doctrine of endurance.
