Jane Eyre is one of my favorite novels, perhaps one of the most empowering, one of the most provocative, one of the most remarkable, and one of the most romantic (by which I mean creepy, mysterious and breathtaking, not necessarily the lovey-dovey kind that bespeaks of flowers and chocolates) works I have ever read.
These articles might shed some new light on a classic novel, so I'm posting them here.
Jane Eyre 1: “Once Upon a Time in Thornfield…” Reading Bronte’s ‘Jane Eyre’ as a Fairy Tale
Jane Eyre 2: Genre and Gender Revulsion and Consequent Critical Disdain for Jane Eyre
Jane Eyre 3: “Plain Jane” and the Mid-Nineteenth-Century Ideal of Beauty, Complexion to Corsets
Jane Eyre 4: Edward (Cullen) Rochester, I Presume? Twilight’s Jane Eyre Roots
Jane Eyre 5: Crossing the Threshold with Jane—The Novel’s Liminal Elements
Jane Eyre 6: Faith and Fairies – Conventional Spirituality versus What the Heart Hears
Jane Eyre 7: A Lesson on Authorial Intent from Jasper Fforde’s Literary Detective Thursday Next
That is all the links, so far. I don't know if the authors of these Jane Eyre discussions will continue to write some more articles and post them, but if they do, I'll try to post those links as well.
