How does Charlotte Bronte create sympathy for Jane in the first two chapters in the novel?
The first two chapters Charlotte Bronte has written about a lonely girl called Jane who lives with the aunt, Mrs Reed and her children. Jane is very independent because she has no one to talk to and therefore she is also very miserable and lets her imaginative thoughts into books. ... Jane is always separated from the rest of the family.
“The said Eliza, John and Georgina were now clustered round their mamma in the drawing room: she reclined on a sofa by the fireside, and with her darlings about her (for the time neither quarrelling not crying) looked perfectly happy”
Jane judges everyone is happy the reason being the children has everything, which is probably why they are very bossy. ... Therefore Jane does not want to cause unnecessary trouble when she knows no one would listen. ...
Jane reads books to relax,
“…I was shrined in double retirement”
She reads to relax and to escape from the real world. ...
“Each picture told a story; mysterious often to my undeveloped understanding and imperfect feelings, yet ever profoundly interesting: as interesting as the tales of Bessie sometimes narrated on winter evenings, when she chanced to be in good humour; and when having brought her ironing table to the nursery-hearth…”
I am wondering if Jane actually was sitting with her and the children or is she friendly with Bessie?
