Jane Eyre #5

In the novel Jane Eyre, I noticed that there were behavioral issues, social issues, and a symbolic and thematic significance. In Jane Eyre there were several characters that seem to have behavioral issues. The character that stood out to me the most with behavioral issues was Bertha. I believe this is because she was crazy. She often acts like an animal when she crawls around on the floor and growls at people. She also started a fire at Thornfield. Obviously this is a behavioral issue because no human being should act like that.

There were also one or two social issues in this novel. Jane was wanting to marry Rochester, but because she did not have a very high social class and she was working for him, she know that that would be impossible. Then Rochester brought Blanche home. Jane thought for sure that they would get married because of her social class. This also shows how naive people were back then, and that is also a behavioral issue.

As for the symbolic significance, it is mainly about love. Even though there were many obstacles for Jane and her love, she found a way through it. She was a strong woman, she was intelligent, and she was independent. And in the end everything turned out great for her. So it is symbolic because Jane Eyre is an excellent role model for any young lady that reads this novel.
