　　I first read "Jane Eyre" in eighth grade and have read it every few years since.

　　It is one of my favorite novels, and so much more than a gothic romance to me, although that's how I probably would have defined it at age 13.

　　I have always been struck, haunted in a way, by the characters - Jane and Mr.

　　Rochester.

　　They take on new depth every time I meet them...and their's is a love story for the ages.

　　Charlotte Bronte's first published novel, and her most noted work, is a semi-autobiographical coming-of-age story.

　　Jane is plain, poor, alone and unprotected, but due to her fierce independence and strong will she grows and is able to defy society's expectations of her.

　　This is definitely feminist literature, published in 1847, way before the beginning of any feminist movement.

　　Perhaps this is one of the reasons why the novel has had such a wide following since it first came on the market.

　　It is also one of the first gothic romances published and defines the genre.

　　Jane Eyre, who is our narrator, was born into a poor family.

　　Her parents died when she was a small child and the little girl was sent to live with her Uncle and Aunt Reed at Gateshead.

　　Jane's Uncle truly cared for her and showed his affection openly, but Mrs.

　　Reed seemed to hate the orphan, and neglected her while she pampered and spoiled her own children.

　　This unfair treatment emphasized Jane's status as an unwanted outsider.

　　She was often punished harshly.

　　On one occasion her nasty cousin Jack picked a fight with her.

　　Jane tried to defend herself and was locked in the terrifying "Red Room" as a result.

　　Jane's Uncle Reed had died in this room a little while before, and Mrs.

　　Reed knew how frightened she was of the chamber.

　　Since Jane is the narrator, the reader is given a first-hand impression of the child's feelings, her heightened emotional state at being imprisoned.

　　Indeed, she seems almost like an hysterical child, filled with terror and rage.

　　She repeatedly calls her condition in life "unjust" and is filled with bitterness.

　　Looking into the mirror Jane sees a distorted image of herself.

　　She views her reflection and sees a "strange little figure," or "tiny phantom." Jane has not learned yet to subordinate her passions to her reason.

　　Her passions still erupt unchecked.

　　Her isolation in the Red Room is a presentiment of her later isolation from almost every society and community.

　　This powerful, beautifully written scene never fails to move me.

　　Mrs.

　　Reed decided to send Jane away to the Lowood School, a poor institution run by Mr.

　　Brocklehurst, who believed that suffering made grand people.

　　All the children there were neglected, except to receive harsh punishment when any mistake was made.

　　At Lowood, Jane met Helen Burns, a young woman a little older than Jane, who guided her with vision, light and love for the rest of her life.

　　Jane's need for love was so great.

　　It really becomes obvious in this first friendship.

　　Helen later died from fever, in Jane's arms.

　　Her illness and death could have been avoided if more attention had been paid to the youths.

　　Jane stayed at Lowood for ten years, eight as a student and two as a teacher.

　　Tired and depressed by her surroundings, Jane applied for the position of governess and found employment at Thornfield.

　　The mansion is owned by a gentleman named Edward Fairfax Rochester.

　　Her job there was to teach his ward, an adorable little French girl, Adele.

　　Over a long period the moody, inscrutable Rochester confides in Jane and she in him.

　　The two form an unlikely friendship and eventually fall in love.

　　Again, Jane's need for love comes to the fore, as does her passionate nature.

　　She blooms.

　　A dark, gothic figure, Rochester also has a heart filled with the hope of true love and future happiness with Jane.

　　Ironically, he has brought all his misery, past and future, on himself.

　　All is not as it seems at Thornfield.

　　There is a strange, ominous woman servant, Grace Poole, who lives and works in an attic room.

　　She keeps to herself and is rarely seen.

　　From the first, however, Jane has sensed bizarre happenings at night, when everyone is asleep .There are wild cries along with violent attempts on Rochester's life by a seemingly unknown person.

　　Jane wonders why no one investigates Mrs.

　　Poole.

　　Then a strange man visits Thornfield and mysteriously disappears with Mr.

　　Rochester.

　　Late that night Jane is asked to sit with the man while the lord of the house seeks a doctor's help.

　　The man has been seriously wounded and is weak from loss of blood.

　　He leaves by coach, in a sorry state, first thing in the morning.

　　Jane's questions are not answered directly.

　　This visit will have dire consequences on all involved.

　　An explosive secret revealed will destroy all the joyful plans that Jane and Rochester have made.

　　Jane, once more will face poverty and isolation.

　　Charlotte Bronte's heroine Jane Eyre, may not have been graced with beauty or money, but she had a spirit of fire and was filled with integrity and a sense of independence - character traits that never waned in spite of all the oppression she encountered in life.

　　Ms.

　　Bronte brings to the fore in "Jane Eyre" such issues as: the relations between men and women in the mid-19 century, women's equality, the treatment of children and of women, religious faith and hypocrisy (and the difference between the two), the realization of selfhood, and the nature of love and passion.

　　This is a powerhouse of a novel filled with romance, mystery and passions.

　　It is at once startlingly fresh and a portrait of the times.

　　Ms.

　　Bronte will make your heart beat faster, your pulse race and your eyes fill with tears.

　　Oliver Twist, one of the most famous works of Charles Dickens’, is a novel reflecting the tragic fact of the life in Britain in 18th century.

　　The author who himself was born in a poor family wrote this novel in his twenties with a view to reveal the ugly masks of those cruel criminals and to expose the horror and violence hidden underneath the narrow and dirty streets in London.

　　The hero of this novel was Oliver Twist, an orphan, who was thrown into a world full of poverty and crime.

　　He suffered enormous pain, such as hunger, thirst, beating and abuse.

　　While reading the tragic experiences of the little Oliver, I was shocked by his sufferings.

　　I felt for the poor boy, but at the same time I detested the evil Fagin and the brutal Bill.

　　To my relief, as was written in all the best stories, the goodness eventually conquered devil and Oliver lived a happy life in the end.

　　One of the plots that attracted me most is that after the theft, little Oliver was allowed to recover in the kind care of Mrs.

　　Maylie and Rose and began a new life.

　　He went for walks with them, or Rose read to him, and he worked hard at his lessons.

　　He felt as if he had left behind forever the world of crime and hardship and poverty.

　　How can such a little boy who had already suffered oppressive affliction remain pure in body and mind? The reason is the nature of goodness.

　　I think it is the most important information implied in the novel by Dickens-he believed that goodness could conquer every difficulty.

　　Although I don’t think goodness is omnipotent, yet I do believe that those who are kind-hearted live more happily than those who are evil-minded.

　　For me, the nature of goodness is one of the most necessary character for a person.

　　Goodness is to humans what water is to fish.

　　He who is without goodness is an utterly worthless person.

　　On the contrary, as the famous saying goes, ‘The fragrance always stays in the hand that gives the rose’, he who is with goodness undoubtedly is a happy and useful person.

　　People receiving his help are grateful to him and he also gets gratified from what he has done, and thus he can do good to both the people he has helped and himself.

　　To my disappointment, nowadays some people seem to doubt the existence of the goodness in humanity.

　　They look down on people’s honesty and kindness, thinking it foolish of people to be warm-hearted.

　　As a result, they show no sympathy to those who are in trouble and seldom offer to help others.

　　On the other hand, they attach importance to money and benefit.

　　In their opinion, money is the only real object while emotions and morality are nihility.

　　If they cannot get profit from showing their ‘kindness’, they draw back when others are faced with trouble and even hit a man when he is down.

　　They are one of the sorts that I really detest.

　　Francis Bacon said in his essay, ‘Goodness, of all virtues and dignities of the mind, is the greatest, being the character of the Deity, and without it, man is a busy, mischievous, wretched thing, no better than a kind of vermin.’

　　That is to say a person without goodness is destined to lose everything.

　　Therefore, I, a kind person, want to tell those ‘vermin-to-be’ to learn from the kind Oliver and regain the nature of goodness.
