This thesis attempts to provide an interpretation of Charlotte Bronte’s
Jane Eyre in terms of cultural politics of gender by exploring the ways in
which Jane Eyre resists being an en-gendered subject as an angel in the house
wow power leveling,
and conforming to the ideal image of womanhood embedded in the network of
power relations and discursive practices of the Victorian Age.
In Chapter One, Introduction, I review the critical essays abroad and at
wow power leveling,
home, wow power levelingand point out two reasons for rereading the already much discussed
novel. For one thing, whether or not Jane is subversive to the traditional
roles of women has been constant ly debated and yet far from settled; for the
wedding dresses,

constructed and how Jane resists being an en-gendered subject and empowers
herself. In this chapter I introduce the methodology—cultural politics of
gender which is a combination of the ideas of such feminist critics Weedon and

Jordan and Foucault’s idea of power.aion kinah
In Chapter Two, I represent the ideal image of womanhood in the early
Victorian Age so as to offer a vivid comparison to Jane Eyre. Creating a
heroine alienating from the Victorian ideal image of womanhood, Bront?
aroused lots of hostile responses when the first edition of Jane Eyre was
published in 1847. Bront? and Jane were accused of doing unconventional
deeds and subverting social, political and religious institutions. Meanwhile,

In Chapter Three, I illustrate how the three cultural institutions—family,
school, and religion, which coincide with Gateshead, Lowood, and the
representatives of Christianity in the novel—function to en-gender Jane as an
expected gendered subject through discursive practices, discipline and
punishment, and how Jane revolts against their power.

In Chapter Four,world of warcraft power leveling I mainly focus on Jane’s resistance to the temptation of
becoming Rochester’s mistress and St. John’s nominal wife, and on Jane’s
quest for her identity as her own mistress. In addition, the mad woman,
Bertha, is read as a subjugated subject under the sexual oppression in the
Victorian patriarchal society. Under the sexual regulation, Bertha isn’t a
powerless woman; instead, ffxi gilshe demonstrates her resistance to the patriarchy
through violence.
In the last chapter I summarize thecheap aion kinah main points of the preceding chapters and
point out the room for further study. In thisaion-gold.html]cheap aion kinah thesis, the issues of class and
race are overlooked. According to Weedon and Jordan, these three terms,
gender, class, and race are alwow power levelingl culturally constructed, not natural. They
contribute to difference and inequality. Therefore, I suggest that the two
issues in Jane Eyre can also be discussedin the light of cultural politics of
class and race.
