The review

The reason why Jane Eyre has become a prominent novel in the British history and a famous novel in the world is that it successfully shaped the image of a woman who dares to resist and fight for freedom and equal status, which is a pioneering work in the history of British literature.      

Jane Eyre is a novel with autobiographical color. Charlotte, the author of Jane Eyre. Bronte and Emily, author of Wuthering Heights, were sisters. Although they lived in the same society, in the same family environment, they had very different personalities, Charlotte. Bronte is more gentle, and more fond of pursuing some beautiful things. Although her family is poor, she has lost her mother's love and father's love in childhood, and she is short and not beautiful, it may be because of the deep inferiority in her soul, which is reflected in her character as a very sensitive self-esteem. To compensate for her deep self-abasement. She wrote about Jane. Love was also an unattractive, small woman, but she had a very strong sense of self-esteem. She was determined to pursue a bright, holy and beautiful life. Jane Eyre lives in an environment where her parents are dead and dependent. Since childhood, she has endured different treatment from her peers, her aunt's disgust, her cousin's contempt, her cousin's insults and beatings. It was a callous assault on a child's dignity, but perhaps because of all this, Jane was brought back. Love's boundless confidence and unyielding spirit, an inner strength of character that can be overcome. In the presence of Rochester, she never feels inferior because she is a lowly governess, but thinks that they are equal. She should not be disrespected because she is a servant. It was also because of her integrity, nobility, purity, and spirit not polluted by the secular society that Rochester was shocked and regarded her as a person who could talk to him spiritually as an equal, and gradually fell in love with her.

  In terms of the language features of the novel, the author adopted a large number of epoch-making popular factors, especially the reference to Gothic novels, so that the readers could not keep up with each other during the reading process. In the novel, the descriptions of conspiracy, omen, assassination, bigamy, madness, adultery and other Gothic novel factors covered the whole novel. It also makes the language of the novel with gothic elements and features of alternative stimulation. On the level of language in the novel, the author uses a lot of Gothic language full of sensory fear. For example, when the protagonist first follows Mrs. Fairfax to St. Field Farm, he overheard the "strange laughter". Not only that, but this strange laughter "repeats in a very low and clear tone, and finally disappears in a strange mutter". The author uses the Gothic description of this weird novel to reveal the weird and strange stories behind the manor, attract readers to participate in the story and explore the real reasons behind the laughter. In addition, the novel has very obvious characteristics of Romanticism. In the novel, the author uses very strong characteristics of subjective language to express the subjective thoughts of the characters and express the subjective experience and feeling of the characters. The author attaches great importance to the self and subjectivity while ignoring the objective situation, which has very obvious characteristics of Romanticism. In the novel, the author uses a lot of space to describe the romantic emotional and linguistic communication between the hero and the heroine, and uses the gentle and romantic thought activities and language expression unique to women. Although in the novel, the language description about the love between Jane Eyre and her boyfriend only revolves around the thought activities after chatting, but it also shows the protagonist Jane Eyre's longing for happiness and the longing for love in front of readers. In addition, the heroine Jane Eyre in the heart to arrange arrangements with Ingram as the object of marriage, there are a lot of descriptions of Rochester's psychological activities and other language, showing the romanticism of Jane Eyre and the author. In the novel, the author describes in detail the tranquility and simplicity of the natural scenery with the help of the protagonist's experiences. With the realistic social environment as the backdrop, the beautiful manor, scenery along the road and childhood are vividly displayed, and the romantic features of the language are also highlighted.

  Jane Eyre has her own dignity, and she strives to maintain her dignity. In love, her feelings are fierce, but she never forgets the requirement of equality. It is this spirit of daring to resist the evil forces and pursue equality that makes the image of Jane Eyre under Charlotte's pen immortal, and also makes this book immortal. I learn from this novel that cherish what you have, not because of lack of inferiority, but because of have and meet! People with dignity will continue to forge ahead, overcome adversity, no dignity people will be stagnant in adversity, loss of self. We should not be afraid of the power of others, nor should we abandon our dignity by grasping power and greed.
