OverviewFirst published in 1847, Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre follows the title character through her journey into womanhood, shedding critical insight into the roles morality, love, and independence play in the Victorian world. Although the novel received lukewarm reception from its contemporary critics, Bronte's sharp analysis of society, and the proto-feminist messages embedded within the text, were in many ways ahead of their time. This critical volume offers readers a compelling collection of essays related to the topic of women's independence as they relate to Jane Eyre. The book also discusses the life and work of Charlotte Bronte, and presents contemporary perspectives on issues related to women's rights and independence, such as ownership of finance, the case against marriage, and the prospect of a matriarchal society.
