1. The structure of Jane Eyre is the artistic framework of The Divine Comedy. Jane Eyre experienced the scorching in hell (Gateshead and Loward), the purification in purgatory (Thornfield and swamp), and finally reached the ideal state in heaven (combining with Rochester and giving birth to the next generation symbolizing rebirth).

Secondly, the author uses the atmosphere of rendering, nightmares, hallucinations and premonitions to create the atmosphere of hell and build an allegorical environment. In Gateshead, Jane Eyre felt the "gloomy commemorative atmosphere" from her life, and saw the "ghost" that appeared and disappeared from time to time, while the "red house" that suppressed terror and made people feel creepy almost became the embodiment of hell.

In lowood, "death has become a frequent visitor here", "gloom and terror are shrouded in the wall", and it exudes "the stench of death" For Jane Eyre, there is no doubt that she just jumped out of the fire pit and was thrown into a more terrible hell. In Thornfield, crazy women appear frequently like ghosts, and storms keep hitting mulberry houses.

Thirdly, in order to endow an ordinary love novel with classic meaning and mythological connotation, the author repeatedly quotes the Bible, myths, epics, classic works and historical allusions in Shakespeare's works. Fourthly, a major feature of this novel is its passion and poetry. Rochester, the hero of the novel, and Jane Eyre, the heroine, both express their feelings in poetic language.

Language features:

The extensive use of psychological description is a major feature of this novel. The book is exquisitely conceived and the plot is ups and downs, which creates a gloomy atmosphere for readers without leaving the middle-class family background. The author also describes the sincere love and natural scenery between the protagonists in a quoted style, with rich and strong feelings.

In landscape description, the author appreciates it from the painter's aesthetic point of view, and grasps the harmony of light and shadow with the painter's interest. The colorful scenery is meticulous and vivid, and the words are precise.

Characterization:

Jane Eyre is a new female image in an era of self-respect, self-love and independence. Influenced by Hugo's principle of contrast, the author created a woman who is ordinary externally and beautiful internally. ?

First, Jane Eyre is an ordinary woman. She looks ordinary and comes from a poor family, but she has noble sentiments. Such a heroic image made the readers at that time feel refreshed. ?

Secondly, she represents the European and American women's movement that sprouted at the beginning of the19th century, expressing the strong desire of women (especially those from poor families): equality with men; Defend their independent personality and dignity; Express your likes and dislikes freely. Jane Eyre pursues independent life and free love. She boldly fell in love with the nobility, but resisted the temptation of a rich life and did not become his mistress. All these show her pursuit of personal dignity. ?

Thirdly, because Jane Eyre is loyal to her ideals, she will inevitably conflict with the traditional society, so she is also a rebel. This is not only reflected in Jane's pursuit of love, but also in her resistance to social injustice: against cousin bullying, menstruation abuse, school education system, against traditional marriage customs, and boldly questioning religion. ?

Jane Eyre's views on love and marriage are integrated. She does not accept love without marriage, nor does she accept marriage without love. ?

Jane Eyre is also a kind, sincere and virtuous female image. She selflessly took care of Rochester's illegitimate daughter, thanked the maid who helped her, and remained faithful to Rochester. ?

Finally, we should also see the over-sensitivity and inferiority in Jane's character. At the beginning of love, she was full of feelings and pretended to be cold on the surface. She always compared her appearance with a shallow but beautiful and rich aristocratic lady, making herself shorter than others and adding trouble to herself. ?

In a word, pursuit and resistance, kindness and sincerity, sensitivity and self-esteem are unified in Jane Eyre's character. ?

Rochester: the image of aristocratic rebels with Victorian brand. ?

First of all, he is a victim of the patriarchal culture. When he was young, his father and brother arranged a marriage of 30,000 francs for him, lest he become poor. Rochester has since fallen into the pain of marital disharmony. In order to relieve his depression, he wandered around and indulged in debauchery until Jane Eyre appeared. ?

Thirdly, he is a traditional male chauvinist and a tough guy with deep-rooted feudal male chauvinism. We can feel it from the description of Rochester's appearance in the novel. Under the background of the times, he naturally became rich after marrying a rich girl, so it can be said that even if his wife went crazy later, he enjoyed her kindness and should be grateful and take care of her.

But in Rochester's mouth, his wife is worthless, and he even took her in out of "humanity". The appearance of Jane Eyre with self-respect and self-love made his eyes shine. Her unruly behavior just aroused his desire for conquest and possession, so he proposed to Jane Eyre regardless of social customs.

When Jane Eyre accepted it, she loved her in every way, but always showed a dominant attitude and oppressed Jane Eyre's independent personality. At this time, Jane Eyre also felt that "my fiance is becoming my whole world, not only the whole world, but also my hope to enter heaven." ?

However, in Jane Eyre, a novel that shows women's self-worth, Rochester represents the spirit and style of the whole Victorian era, and his appreciation of Jane Eyre also represents the recognition of new women by the times. ?

Theme of the work

This novel is a realistic novel with strong romanticism. Jane Eyre is a well-known work, an autobiographical novel. Jane Eyre's pursuit of life has two basic melodies: passion, fantasy, resistance and persistence; Longing for freedom and happiness in the world and pursuing a higher spiritual realm.

The theme of this novel is to successfully create a female image who is uneasy about the status quo, unwilling to be humiliated and dare to fight through the rough life experience of an orphan girl, reflecting the call sign and censure of an ordinary soul and the desire of a lowercase person to become a capitalized person.

This novel mainly describes the love between Jane Eyre and Rochester. Jane Eyre's view of love deepened her personality. She believes that love should be based on spiritual equality, not on social status, wealth and appearance. Only when men and women really love each other can they get real happiness. In the pursuit of personal happiness, Jane Eyre showed unusual innocence, simple thoughts and feelings and indomitable courage.

She didn't give up the pursuit of happiness because of her servant status. Her love is pure and noble. She despises Rochester's wealth. She loves him because he can treat others equally, treat her as a friend and be honest with her. For Rochester, Jane Eyre is like a fresh wind, which makes him feel refreshed.

Rochester was used to the cold hypocrisy of the upper class, and Jane Eyre's simplicity, kindness and independence rekindled his pursuit and yearning for life. Therefore, he can sincerely express his good wishes and determination to reform in front of Jane. Jane Eyre sympathizes with Rochester's unfortunate fate and thinks that his mistakes are caused by objective circumstances.

Although he was ugly and later went bankrupt and became disabled, she saw his inner beauty and poor unfortunate fate, so she finally married him. Through Rochester's two completely different love experiences, the novel criticizes the concept of love and marriage based on money, and always describes Jane Eyre's love with Rochester as a complete tacit understanding of thought, talent, quality and spirit.

This novel shows that the best life of human beings is human dignity and love, and the ending of the novel arranges such a life for the heroine. Although this ending is too perfect, even this perfection itself marks superficiality. Although Rochester's manor was destroyed, Rochester himself became a disabled person. Jane Eyre is such a state, no longer in the contradiction between dignity and love, but also satisfied. When she married Rochester, she had dignity and, of course, love.

Jane Eyre is a woman who is unwilling to endure social oppression and dares to pursue personal happiness. Her poor and low social status and wandering life experience were a true portrayal of the lower class life in England at that time.

In the novel, the author can put an awakened new woman from the lower class in the leading role, enthusiastically praising the protagonist's tenacious struggle against oppression and social prejudice, striving for independent personality and dignity, and pursuing a happy life, which is commendable in literary works at that time.

Jane Eyre, who has dignity and pursues equality, is a seemingly weak woman with a strong and tenacious heart, because this work has become a model in the hearts of countless women. The novel shows the ups and downs of the hero and heroine's love experience in a fascinating way, and praises getting rid of all old customs and prejudices.

Deep love rooted in mutual understanding and respect has a powerful artistic power that shocks the soul. Its most successful place is to create a female image that dares to resist and strive for freedom and equal status.
