Hindsight Essay, Research Paper

To fully know one’s self and to be able to completely

understand and interpret all actions and experiences one

goes through is difficult enough. However, analyzing and

interpreting the thoughts and feelings of another human being

is in itself on an entirely different level. In the novel Jane

Eyre, its namesake makes a decision to reject her one true

love in favor of moral decency. Certain aspects of the novel

discredit the validity of Jane’s choice.

The truthfulness of Jane’s reason to leave Mr. Rochester can

be questioned because Jane Eyre narrates the novel herself.

employer Mr. Rochester. Unfortunately he has a wife in a

deranged woman who lives in the attic, where she is tended

by a strange, jinn drinking servant. Despite the strange

circumstances surrounding the marriage, Jane chooses to

end her life a Thornfield Manor and flee through the country

side. She claims that the reason she leaves her true love is

that their marriage would be one that would go against God.

Mr. Rochester is already spoken for. The possibility of him

as an acceptable husband is slim. He admits he lied to Jane

and attempted to become a "polygamist", but he appeals to
