ESSAY ON: Bronte’s Jane Eyre/Joyce’s The Dead

Number of Pages 4

This research paper: A 4 page essay that examines 2 greater works of literature. Charlotte Bronte’s independently minded protagonist in her novel Jane Eyre and James Joyce’s rather more prosaic main character in his short story “The Dead,” Gabriel Conroy, each express a desire in these narratives to experience a different sort of life, one that includes new places, new experiences and an escape form the provincialism of their circumstances. However, when Jane is offered the chance to leave England, she rejects it and Gabriel, likewise, has a change of heart before the end of his story. Examination of these two narratives indicates the reasons behind their behavior and how this stems from the way in which Bronte and Joyce handle these characterizations. No additional sources cited.
