Analysing of the poem in the class

Before the Law

alisashoshina — 2025-03-19 13:05:40 UTC

I was asked to find a picture that represents Before the Law by Franz Kafka. I chose this image because it symbolizes the endless obstacles and layers of difficulty someone faces when trying to access the law. The long staircase leading into the clouds represents bureaucracy, powerlessness, and the unreachable nature of justice in Kafka’s story

Cary Fukunaga's 2011 film adaptation of Charlotte Bront's Jane Eyre is a powerful and inspiring sight. The film's gothic imagery and controlled performances emphasize its themes of isolation, romance, and repression.

Bertha Mason, Mr. Rochester's first wife, is well-portrayed. Located in the attic, Bertha appears more through disruptive sounds and abrupt pauses than through personal involvement. This image emphasizes her dehumanization and Victorian mental illness fear.

The film depicts Bertha's actual and symbolic isolation. Her incarceration parallels society's isolation of mental health patients. Her madness and chaotic claim to freedom are shown by her acts, such as destroying Rochester's bed and ruining Jane's wedding ring.

Bertha feels betrayed and repelled by others, especially Rochester. He calls her "ferocious and irrational temperament," blaming inherited lunacy. This attitude is insensitive and ignores her quiet existence and Creole cultural misconceptions.

The film makes viewers question mental illness care. Although Bertha has no voice, it slowly attacks the social norms that imprisoned her. The director seems warning against oppressing and marginalizing nonconformists.

In conclusion, the 2011 Jane Eyre film explores mental illness through Bertha Mason. It shows 19th-century mental health ignorance but also encourages modern viewers to consider historical injustices and the importance of compassion and inclusivity.
