Response: Both Kim and Marley had questions different from my own. While Kim and Marley focused on character, I focused on Bronte’s craft and her own interpretations of her work. Marley’s post was about Mr. Rochester and how, despite everything that Mr. Rochester is, Jane still finds herself enamored by him. Kim’s post was about how Jane is involved in both upper and working class women, as well as how Jane seems to avoid serious consequences for her actions. These posts don’t necessarily go in a different direction from my own, as I can see Bronte’s craft choices upon reflecting on the questions posed by Marley and Kim. I think in regards to my own questions, I need to look closer at the specifics of Jane’s character within the overall story in order to answer my questions about how Bronte and others felt about women during that time period.
