Jane Eyre
RELIGION
, RELIGION
Religion is a key theme – the novel is as much a chronicling of Jane’s
spiritual development as it is a narration of her zealous strive towards
autonomy.
Throughout her life, our vociferous protagonist is presented with 3
different models of Christianity, all of which she refuses to appropriate
before reaching her own understanding of her faith.
The three key figures who introduce these models are:
- Mr Brocklehurst
- Helen Burns
- St. John
