violent thoughts into...

Laurie Lanzen Harris Nineteenth Century Literature Criticism
876 words
In the novel Jane Eyre, Charlotte Bronte recounts
the story of Jane and her lovers, Mr. Rochester
and St. John Rivers. Critics such as Adrienne Rich

choose between the temptation of following the
rule of passion by marrying Rochester, or of
living a life of complete renunciation of all
passions by marrying St. John Rivers. Fire and
water imagery symbolizes these two forces
competing for dominance in Jane Eyre, both on a
personal and metaphorical level...
