[ send
me THIS essay ]
A 10 page paper comparing the main character
of Charlotte Bronte's novel with Bronte
herself. The writer concludes that although
there are a few ways in which Bronte's life is
directly reflected in the book, the
correspondences between Charlotte and Jane lie
more in the way both heroines deal with a
damaged self-concept through the development
of their frank and passionate natures, and
their determination to live according to their
own moral principles. Bibliography lists nine
sources.

A five page paper comparing Charles Dickens'
and Emily Bronte's absence of mothers in these
two novels, and the effects this absence has
on children in both novels. The paper

nurturing provided by a man; and Bronte feels
girls do just as well mothering themselves.

Significance Of Thresholds In
The Work Of Bronte And Shelley :
[ send
me THIS essay ]
The idea behind a threshold is threefold it
separates the space between what lies on one
side of the door and the other, it stops the
door from swinging between those same spaces
and it forms the base for the frame of the
door. The analogy of a door is a popular one
for understanding life, whether fictional
representations of life or real life. Doors
open into new spaces, experiences and
knowledge. This 7 page paper examines the
stories of Jane Erye, by Charlotte Bronte,
Wuthering Heights, by Emily Bronte, and
Frankenstein, written by Mary Shelley, and
argues that there is at least one incident
where a character 'stands at the threshold' of
a decision that will change their life. No
additional sources are listed.
