  • Closely analyse the presentation of Rochesters character in Jane Eyre. In the course of your writing make comparisons with the way Rochester is presented in Wide Sargasso Sea.

    "Although similar and comparable, the characters of Brontë's Rochester and Rhys's Rochester are placed in different cultures, written in different centuries and have different circumstances. Rhys's villain is not given the fond treatment that Brontë's Byronic hero is at the end; however, the presentation of both characters is consistent in many areas. Rochester, despite redeeming himself at the conclusion of the novel, is a symbol of the male oppression, of the patriarchal society and of the lies and deceit which bring about Antoinette's imprisonment and almost bring about Jane's. Words: 1644"

  • 'Rochester is master and Jane a passive victim.' Discuss power and control in Jane and Rochester's relationship.

    "In conclusion, I believe that the statement, âRochester is master and Jane a passive victim,â is not true to some extent. Throughout the novel, there are hints to support this statement however Jane is shown to be an outspoken woman who gives outbursts of her thoughts. She follows and obeys Mr Rochester as he is her master, throughout the novel Jane is heavily dependant on other people therefore she may find pleasure in Mr Rochesterâs attention."

  • In the light of St Johns proposal, discuss the importance in Jane Eyre of love and marriage.

    "In conclusion, love and marriage is important in Jane Eyre. St. John and Janeâs relationship is one where there is no love but one where marriage is still seen as a possibility for a purpose. Jane and Rochesterâs relationship is one where the love and passion override a successful marriage but eventually the two are united equally. Finally, Bertha and Rochesterâs relationship is one where there is some passion at first but it quickly dies and all that it is left is a hateful , empty marriage which offers a contrast to Jane and Rochesterâs relationship."
