Jane Eyre: Independence

In Charlotte Bronte’s famous book Jane Eyre, a girl was portrayed that was growing up around the turn of the nineteenth century. Jane was an orphan with no family or friends. She was mistreated and misunderstood by the people around her. Jane seemed doomed for a life of failure, until she decided to go against all odds and stand up for the life of success she deserved. Jane’s actions opened the doors for …

…the nineteenth century. Bronte explored obstacles that Jane faced during her life and how she was able to overcome all of them. Jane beat the odds and became independent and successful on her own. Jane was a role model for women in the nineteenth century and is still a role model for women today. Her legacy will live on to support the idea that as long as women have expectations and aspirations, nothing is impossible.
