Every time she acts out of anger and acts passionately she's punished until she's sent to Lowood.  Jane represses her feelings for Rochester when she begins to fall in love with him because she doesn't believe he could ever love her. "is it likely he would waste a serious thought on on this indignent and insignificant plebeian?" (187). If Jane were to marry St. John she belives she would have to repress the more alive parts of herself. "But as his wife...forced top keep the fire of my nature continually low". She would be repressing herself for the sake of morality. ]]> 2018-09-02 18:07:27 UTC https://padlet.com/cmiles14/pfspe04c9o59/wish/277164821 cmiles14 https://padlet.com/cmiles14/pfspe04c9o59/wish/277164865 Before

Woman are told how to act and think and how their place is below the men in society. There is a lot of backlash and mention to this in Jane Eyre, that talks about how woman shouldn't be set to different standards than men and shouldn't have to live, and learn to live, "Like ladies". "Woman are supposed to be very calm generally: but woman feel just as men feel: they need to exercise for their faculties, and a field for their efforts just as their brothers do" 129]]> 2018-09-02 18:10:55 UTC https://padlet.com/cmiles14/pfspe04c9o59/wish/277165079 cmiles14 https://padlet.com/cmiles14/pfspe04c9o59/wish/277165247 The "place" or setting in Jane Eyre had a very prominent effect on the contents of the book. The setting really emphasizes the cultural and societal practices of the time in the past. The setting really brings out the ways of marriage, money, and position of woman, of that time period. In addition to this there are what appear to be some direct correlations with the naming of certain places Jane lives and her experience there. " Leah is a nice girl to be sure, and John and his wife are very decent people; but then you see they are only servants, and one can’t converse with them on terms of equality: one must keep them at due distance, for fear of losing one’s authority." This is very representative of the class structure.  "the good lady evidently belonged to this class; my queries puzzled, but did not draw her out. Mr. Rochester was Mr. Rochester in her eyes; a gentleman, a landed proprietor—nothing more"]]> 2018-09-02 18:13:41 UTC https://padlet.com/cmiles14/pfspe04c9o59/wish/277165247 cmiles14 https://padlet.com/cmiles14/pfspe04c9o59/wish/277165294 In the beginning of the novel Jane is locked away from the other children and confined to her nursery for "misbehaving". Her escape from isolation and the cruelty of the Reed's is being sent to Lowood, a school for girls. This sends Jane into another imprisonment as her and the other girls she's with are mistreated. "Our clothing was insufficient to protect us from the severe cold...with the keen appetites of growing children, we had scarcely sufficient to keep alive a delicate invalid" (71). Their escape comes when a sickness spreads through the school due to the poor conditions. The school is then taken over by new management and the conditions greatly improve. For Rochester, his imprisonment is his marriage to Bertha. He hopes his love for Jane will be his escape from the craziness of Bertha.
