摘要
Jane Eyre is set during the Victorian period, at a time where a women's role in society was restrictive and repressive and class differences distinct. A Charlotte Bronte as a governess was one of the only few respectable positions available to the educated but impoverished single women. Not only is Jane Eyre a novel about one woman's through lie, but also Bronte conveys to the reader the social injustices of the period, such as poverty, lack of universal education and sexual inequality. Jane's plight and her "dependant" status is particularly emphasized at the beginning of the novel.
