Denounced by some contemporary reviewers for Jane’s ‘unchristian’ rebellion against her lowly status, Jane Eyre has been seen since as an archetypal love story, a key text in the feminist canon, and a classic example of Victorian Gothic.1,A Companion to the Indian Mutiny of 1857, The novel was first published under the pseudonym ‘Currer Bell’, but there was so much speculation about who could have written such a powerful and unusual novel that Brontë was forced to reveal her true identity. Jane Eyre draws heavily on her attempts to make her way in life as the daughter of a Yorkshire parson, and Jane’s miserable childhood years at Lowood have their roots in Bronte’s experiences at the Clergy Daughters’ School in Cowan Bridge, where poor living conditions led to the deaths of her older sisters Maria and Elizabeth. ‘Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong! – I have as much soul as you, and full as much heart!’īronte had her own deeply personal reasons for making this plea. It is also a passionate expression of the rights of women who lacked the money and social connections to make their voices heard: It tells the story of an orphan girl turned governess who overcomes hardships and setbacks to marry her beloved employer, Mr Rochester. Jane Eyre (1847) secured Charlotte Bronte’s status as one of the greatest Victorian novelists.
