Jane Eyre Analysis

“Jane Eyre” by Charlotte Bronte
Charlotte Bronte was born in Yorkshire, England on April 21, 1816. Because of the death of Charlotte’s mother her aunt helped to raise his children - three of sisters—Maria, Elizabeth, and Emily. At a young age, the children created a fictional world they named Angria, and their many stories, poems, and plays were early predictors of shared writing talent that eventually led Emily, Anne, and Charlotte to careers as novelists.

The book, a critique of Victorian assumptions about gender and social class, became one of the most successful novels of its era, both critically and commercially.
