The end of Jane Eyre

David Young

In the book Jane Eyre, Charlotte Brontë goes through such corrupt and detrimental life alterations that one would at least believe Jane deserves a happy ending. Even though Jane’s relationship with Mr. Rochester may be unconventional and confrontational, she does eventually end up marrying him out of love. The language of the novel in the ending begins to have more of a romantic dialect that Brontë had not used at any other point in the novel. Jane Eyre says in one of her final passages that “no woman was ever nearer to her mate than I am: ever more absolutely bone of his bone, and flesh of his flesh”. The phrase “bone of his bone, and flesh of his flesh” directly alludes to the Bible and gives the impression of Jane and Rochester as the current Eve and Adam.

  Jane Eyre bravely resists the bullying she is subjected to in her childhood, which contributes to her beautiful character. When she grows up, her brave, firm and confident character adds a lot of confidence to her love.
