| | Timothy Dalton's Web Site - Review of Jane Eyre |
 | | Jane hurries to Rochester, at a remote piece of property, where she discovers him broken down and dispirited, believing Jane to be forever lost to him, and suffering from the physical punishments God has inflicted upon him for trying to fly in the face of morality. |  | | There is a beautiful, poignant moment when Rochester first proposes to Jane by baring his soul to her, allowing her to look, not into his eyes, but into his soul, where he reveals not the worldly exterior and the miseries with which life has saddled him, but the true, pure being beneath. |  | | Jane's refusal to go away with him (specifically chronicled in the book to emphasize the correctness of this decision) just barely holds up here, for you cannot believe Dalton's Rochester would eventually fall out of love with Jane for becoming his mistress, rather than his wife. |

| | Charlotte Bronte |
 | | Jane Eyre is throughout the personification of the unregenerate and undisciplined spirit, the more dangerous to exhibit from that prestige of principle and self-control which is liable to dazzle the eye too much for it to observe the inefficient and unsound foundation on which it rests. |  | | Jane Eyre is, indeed, one of the coarsest books which we ever perused. |  | | It is true Jane does right, and exerts great moral strength, but it is the strength of a mere heathen mind which is a law unto itself. |

| | Review: Jane Eyre (1995) |
 | | Jane Eyre is a love story, but, instead of the lighter romance and humor of Jane Austen's novels, this tale is marked by stark realism and a pervasive sense of misery. |  | | From her first meeting with Edward, when she offers aid after he is thrown from a horse, she is infatuated, but his natural reticence keeps her from confessing her feelings. |  | | Nevertheless, for Bronte aficionados, lovers of Victorian romance, or those who simply appreciate literate love stories, Jane Eyre offers two hours of quality entertainment. |

| | SparkNotes: Jane Eyre: Themes, Motifs & Symbols |
 | | After Jane and Rochester’s wedding is cancelled, Jane finds comfort in the moon, which appears to her in a dream as a symbol of the matriarchal spirit. |  | | Jane sees the moon as “a white human form” shining in the sky, “inclining a glorious brow earthward.” She tells us: “It spoke to my spirit: immeasurably distant was the tone, yet so near, it whispered in my heart—“My daughter, flee temptation.” Jane answers, “Mother, I will” (Chapter 27). |  | | Ultimately, Jane is only able to marry Rochester as his equal because she has almost magically come into her own inheritance from her uncle. |

| | Jane Eyre |
 | | Jane's fears of the ghost are consistent with her vivid imagination; yet the ghost never appears, and Jane is returned to cruel reality. |  | | When Rochester says he is "paving hell with energy" and that he is "laying down good intentions," he is alluding to an old saying: "The road to Hell is paved with good intentions." This quote has been attributed to Karl Marx, but I think it has been around longer than that. |  | | This chapter gives more insight on the nature of Rochester through his battle of wits with Jane. |

 | | I mean the timorous or carping few who doubt the tendency of such books as Jane Eyre: in whose eyes whatever is unusual is wrong; whose ears detect in each protest against bigotry- that parent of crime- an insult to piety, that regent of God on earth. |  | | His wit is bright, his humour attractive, but both bear the same relation to his serious genius that the mere lambent sheet-lightning playing under the edge of the summer-cloud does to the electric death-spark hid in its womb. |  | | The said Eliza, John, and Georgiana were now clustered round their mama in the drawing-room: she lay reclined on a sofa by the fireside, and with her darlings about her (for the time neither quarrelling nor crying) looked perfectly happy. |

| | Full text and plot summary of Jane Eyre by The Bronte Sisters |
 | | The novel inspired the feminist criticism of the 1980s through Gilbert and Gulbar's The Madwoman in the Attic in which unstable female characters in such literature were presented as proof of the suppression of the feminine. |  | | This alone was enough for the book to be considered unsuitable for young ladies - even though it never veers from the accepted moral codes of the period. |  | | Jane Eyre was published in 1847 and is a form of fictionalised autobiography of its author. |

 | | In appealing to both the head and the heart, Jane Eyre triumphs over its flaws and remains a classic of nineteenth-century English literature and one of the most popular of all English novels. |  | | It is a work of fiction with memorable characters and vivid scenes, written in a compelling prose style. |  | | Her book has serious things to say about a number of important subjects: the relations between men and women, women's equality, the treatment of children and of women, religious faith and religious hypocrisy (and the difference between the two), the realization of selfhood, and the nature of true love. |

 | | Seriously - this is one of the best scores that Williams has ever written and, for those of you familiar with the ebullient action writing that has characterised Williams' work post-Star Wars, it may come as a surprise that the great JW could write something so low-key, delicate and beautiful as this. |  | | Jane Eyre was written in the pre-Star Wars days when Williams was still known as Johnny and, as you would expect, it lacks the bombast and huge orchestrations that have characterised his later, more famous scores. |  | | In the 'Overture' Williams goes even further away from his more familiar style by incorporating a subtle harpsichord melody into the performance of the Jane Eyre theme to lend the music that classical Englishness which usually surrounds works of this type. |
