  • I totally agree.

  • I disagree with the blindness-castration interpretation of Jane Eyre in terms of equality.She's an independent woman now.There are more possible reasons of why it happens:

    1)punishment in a tragedy measure due to arrogance&hubris-chance of redemption, sense of justice being done

    2)showing how Jane's love was true&not an infatuation with his power and wealth.

    Jane doesn't need divine intervention to deal with him.She did quite a good job making her point when they were to be married the 1st time.

  • In 2:32 Lucasta Miller describes Rochester's attraction starting with the phrase: "Well he is sexy as hell!". Lol! I was really surprised.

    I thought: I am glad to find at last that the academic opinion comes to match the public one :).

  • In 2:19 I highly disagree with Daisy Goodwin's presentation of Rochester's character: a man that marries a woman with mental health problems for her money & then locks her up? Is she serious?

    In the book he had no idea that Bertha was becoming to show signs of madness & he married her because of the encouragement of both his & hers family, his lust for her beauty & inexperience. Her locking up later under private care was the best he could do.
