|Jane Eyre |Charlotte Bronte: Jane Eyre. | |

| |Through the character Jane, orphan and governess, Charlotte Brontë introduced a style of heroine that markedly departed from |DVD 823 CHA |

| |the previous norm in Victorian literature. In this program, Dr. Tom Winnifrith—Brontë expert and author of The Brontës—and Dr.| |

| |Sally Poulson of the University of Warwick discuss a variety of topics, including whether Jane Eyre is feminist literature, | |

| |the theme of the Gothic novel, the Victorian education system, and 19th-century social structure. In addition, they compare | |

| |and contrast the author with her shy and intense heroine to determine how much of the novel is autobiographical. (31 minutes) | |
