How do Jane’s experiences at Lowood contribute to her development? Essa

How do Janes survives at Lowood contribute to her development?Before arriving at Lowood Jane lived at Gateshead, with her auntie andthree cousins. She was un raged and treated badly, and had al make believedeveloped a object to stand up for herself and fight for herindependence. The young Jane had baffled Mrs Reed, who could obviously non d accept the stairsstand how for nine years you could be patient and quiescentunder any treatment, and in the tenth break out all chivy andviolence. At Gateshead she is unhappy and when Mr Lloyd researchs herafter the red-room incident, she is shown to be nave and ignorantof life. She has no real picture of honest, decent, working people andher experience of poverty is limited to her aunts nasty commentsabout her relatives and to the hardly a(prenominal) poor villagers she has seen. Janeis not religious yet, as the logical answer to Mr Brocklehurstsquestion reveals, and she again shocks him with her comments about thepsalms. Her sense of inju stice, would not allow Mrs Reed to spite herand call her deceitful, forcing her to speak her mind. Jane identifiesherself with the role of mutinous slave, likening her cousin to aslave driver. She appears to be afraid that she will never get word a truesense of home or community, Jane feels the need to belong somewhere,to find kin, or at least kindred spirits.After Janes open act of rebellion, she is sent to Lowood. Aninstitution run by Mr Brocklehurst, whose delegating it is to mortify inthese girls the lusts of flesh. Lowood institution is based uponCharlotte Bronts own experiences at the Clergy Daughters School,Cowan Bridge, which she attended at the age of 8, with her sisters. Asin Jane Eyre, typhus fever broke out at the school,... ...brance of God is the same as when sheacknowledges to herself her love for Rochester, where she says thatRochester has become so important in her life that he even out displacesreligion and stands between her and God.Jane also has the power of forgiveness in her. She is ready to forgiveMrs Reed for her wrongs and she returns to Thornfield to find andforgive Rochester. It is possible for her learnings from Lowood to beforgotten or ignored in a trice. She stoops low to begging when sheleaves Rochester and when she lets St. hindquarters take over her feelings,but regains them at both times, refusing his proposal of wedding andbeing taken in by the Rivers.Lowood made Jane a sufficient woman with morals, who knew her place. Itwas all that she needed to have back in the nineteenth century when at thetime the book was written, women were considered inferior to men.
