Jane Eyre is one of the earliest English new(a)s with a strong, female cardinal character. Do you hazard she sells out by marrying Rochester,thus enabling a conventional, romantic ending to the allegory?He stretched his hand out to be led. (Jane)Form start to finish, this novel has had one strong, female centralcharacter - Jane Eyre. We see her fight for independence as a femalefrom her childhood right up until her marriage. These ardent,passionate beliefs do not leave her once married, if anything theyget stronger. Jane does not sell out by marrying Rochester for nowshe is the more powerful half of the relationship. Jane is herhusbands eyes and He (Rochester) saw nature...books through me. Shehas everything she wished for and is mutualist upon no one just as shehad dreamed.I resisted all the way- a new thing for meHere Jane declares her independence for the first time in the novelafter an seam with her cousin, John Reed. It was to be a turningpoint in her early life as now she did not take anything fabrication down,(She) was a discord at Gateshead Hall.The next time we see Jane express her passionate nature is in heroutburst with Mrs Reed. Here Jane realises she has made a drift butexcuses herself, Something spoke out of me over which I had nocontrol I was now in for it. Janes lack of submission seems to be a come about theme throughout the novel as she displays it once again inher meeting with future principal, Mr Brocklehurst. When Jane isquizzed by him, she tells the truth to the shock of Brocklehurst.And the psalms, I hope you deal them?No, sirShe also displays a huge amount of wit when asked by Brocklehurst whatshe must do to stay out of hell... ...nding.We have established that Jane is unquestionably a strong, female,central character. As you have read she displays her emotive andcontroversial views on more than one occasion and finds courage whenshe needs it the most. These are all factors which contribute to myargument that Jane does not sell out. However, in my opinion, themost important argument is how could she have sold out if she ishappier than she has ever been in her life? I can understand wherecritic, Sally Mitchell was coming from in 1983 when she said that,their subsequent marriage not only ends the many conflicts involved,but also fulfils every womans wish of achieving both independence andlove.The overwhelming bliss combine with the strong feeling ofself-reliance can assure us that Jane has sold out on nothing apartfrom the misery with which her life began.
