3. Jane Eyre Looking for a Job in the Town
Jane leaves Thornfield Hall. She has been rescued by St. John. She speaks: “I will be a dressmaker; I will be a plain-workman; I will be a servant, a nurse-girl, if I can be no better,” Mr. St. John says: “Right, if such is your spirit, I promise to aid you, in my own time and way.” ③ St. John offers Jane a humble job as the schoolmistress for the poor girls in his parish at Morton. Jane works in this very joyful place and she likes there.
“I felt I became a favourite in the neighbourhood. Whenever I went out, I heard on all sides cordial salutations, and was welcomed with friendly smiles. To live amidst general regard, thought it be but the regard of working people, is like sitting in sunshine, calm and sweet, serene inward feelings bud and bloom under the ray. At this period of my life, my heart far oftener swelled with thankfulness than sank with dejection.”④ All this things show Jane’s personality, self-improvement.
B. Jane Eyre’s Self-respect
1. Jane Eyre Meeting with Mr. Rochester
At Thornfield, a comfortable three-story country estate, Jane is warmly welcomed. She likes both her new pupil, Adèle Varens, and Mrs. Fairfax, the housekeeper at Thornfield, but is soon restless. One January afternoon, while walking to Millcote to mail a letter, Jane helps a horseman whose horse has slipped on a patch of ice and fallen. Returning to Thornfield, Jane discovers that this man is Edward Fairfax Rochester, the owner of Thornfield and her employer. He is a dark-haired, moody man in his late thirties. Although he is often taciturn, Jane grows fond of his mysterious, passionate nature.
From the first meeting with him, we can see Jane’s position as a helper in Mr. Rochester’s mind. When one afternoon she is on her way to the post office, Jane meets with Mr. Rochester unexpectedly. And after, she offers him help several times since he falls from his horse, Mr. Rochester still ‘had hardly turned his eyes in Jane’s direction before’. From this sentence we can see that Mr. Rochester is very haughty, he is not a man who is amiable and easy to approach. In my opinion, as an ordinary person, we should express our good manners to a stranger if others offers us help, but Mr. Rochester shows his ideas quite different. From their first meeting unexpectedly, Mr. Rochester knows the girl who helps him out of the trouble on his way to his home Thornfield is his governess. However, let’s see how our hero- Rochester’s attitude to Jane at his own home as a master. One evening when she is told at last by Mrs. Fairfax to have tea with Mr. Rochester in the drawing-room, Jane regards his first invitation as a ceremony and prepares it stately.
From these statements above, it’s not difficult to see Mr. Rochester is a haughty and indifferent man either to his servant or to a person he does not know much perhaps as far as he is concerned, he has nothing to say to his employees except giving them orders because he does not think his employees have the same languages to talk with. As we know, he is a bachelor and he has traveled many nations of the world. Not only the knowledge but also the experiences can make him superior to them. So he seems to look down upon any persons in his home.
