  Its really , I v never touch such old English be4, hard nut 2 read the book in which grammar nd vocabulary r very complex . The story, however, quite interesting, about the experience nd behavior of Jane Eyre who, some readers strongly suggests, is very straightforward girl nd is having something brave in her spirit: absolutely irregular at that time. Anyway, she, i suppos, is a good girl. There are many details, by which u would b shaken if u were reading, written about what she is thinking about at some circumstances.Particularly at the eve when Jane left Rochester whom she has been loving deeply, it would b hardly sad and sorro, u should find when reading it. Another more astonished is that, miracle in many eyes in the literature development, the writer Charlotte Bronte who cultivated in a ordinary family in which the father was a missionary,has two sisters Amily and Anne both who published their books at the same time in 1847: the books r rather well-known as well, nd , I guess, u v heard of b4. I not very strongly but fairly recommend this book . If u r free, read it.

  Speechless. My impressions of Jane, Rochester, and John have changed from when I read this when I was younger. Especially, Mr. Rochester's barbaric behavior and rude language. I can only give this novel 3 stars.

  书名：简爱：Jane Eyre（英文） 作者：[英] 夏洛蒂·勃朗特（Charlotte Bronte） 历时：约22h 查词：330个（有丢失） 整本书看下来，相比于《呼啸》和《小妇人》，还是比较难的。主人公Jane虽寄人篱下，遭受着偏见，可却没就此屈服和沉沦，反而她有着宽容之心和不屈的性格。她抛弃前嫌，原谅舅妈并照顾其生活；Jane知道心上人欺骗了她并有妻子时，她也没有歇斯底里，而是保持着尊严离开了罗切斯特。 特别喜欢Jane在面对心上人罗切斯特时，保持理性和坦荡直率的心性（书中的一段话）： 你以为我会无足轻重的留在这里吗？你以为我是一架没有感情的机器人吗？你以为我贫穷、低微、不美、缈小，我就没有灵魂，没有心吗？你想错了，我和你有样多的灵魂，一样充实的心。如果上帝赐予我一点美，许多钱，我就要你难以离开我，就象我现在难以离开你一样。我现在不是以社会生活和习俗的准则和你说话，而是我的心灵同你的心灵讲话。 看，就是这样敢于说出自己的想法，不藏着掖着，不相互猜疑。这样的Jane，对自己的命运、社会地位有着清醒的认知，同时也对自己的幸福和情感有着坚定的追求。这样美好的心灵，生活又怎会辜负她呢。 书摘： 1：I don' t like cavillers or questioners; besides, there is something truly forbidding in a child taking up her elders in that manner. Be seated somewhere; and until you can speak pleasantly, remain silent. 我不喜欢吹毛求疵或者刨根究底的人，更何况小孩子家这么跟大人顶嘴实在让人讨厌。找个地方去坐着，不会和气说话就别张嘴。 2：I reflected. Poverty looks grim to grown people; still more so to children: they have not much idea of industrious, working, respectable poverty; they think of the word only as connected with ragged clothes, scanty food, fireless grates, rude manners, and debasing vices: poverty for me was synonymous with degradation. 我陷入了沉思，在成年人看来贫困显得冷酷无情，孩子则尤其如此。至于勤劳刻苦、令人钦敬的贫困，孩子们不甚了了。在他们心目中，这个字眼始终与衣衫槛褴褛、食品匿乏、壁炉无火、行为粗鲁以及低贱的恶习联系在一起。对我来说，贫困就是堕落的别名。 3：Because you' re such a queer, frightened, shy little thing. You should be bolder. 谁叫你是那么个古怪、胆小、怕难为情的小东西，你应该胆大一点。 4：When full of flowers they would doubtless look pretty; but now, at the latter end of January, all was wintry blight and brown decay. 鲜花怒放时节，这些苗圃一定十分标致，但眼下一月将尽，一片冬日枯黄凋零的景象。 5：I have no method; and sometimes I say, like you, I cannot bear to be subjected to systematic arrangements.This is all very provoking to Miss Scatcherd, who is naturally neat, punctual, and particular.我做事没有条理。有时像你一样会说，我受不了那种井井有条的管束。这一桩桩都使斯卡查德小姐很恼火，她天生讲究整洁，遵守时刻，一丝不苟。 6：A great deal: you are good to those who are good to you.很了不起，别人待你好，你待别人也好。 7：If people were always kind and obedient to those who are cruel and unjust, the wicked people would have it all their own way: they would never feel afraid, and so they would never alter, but would grow worse and worse. When we are struck at without a reason, we should strike back again very hard; I am sure we should—so hard as to teach the person who struck us never to do it again.要是你对那些强横霸道的人，总是客客气气，说啥听啥，那坏人就会为所欲为，就会天不怕地不怕，非但永远不会改，而且会愈变愈坏。要是无缘无故挨打，那我们就要狠狠地回击，肯定得这样，狠到可以教训那个打我们的人，让他再也洗手不干了。 8：I must dislike those who, whatever I do to please them, persist in disliking me; I must resist those who punish me unjustly. It is as natural as that I should love those who show me affection, or submit to punishment when I feel it is deserved.那些不管我怎样讨他们欢心，硬是讨厌我的人，我必定会厌恶的。我必须反抗那些无理惩罚我的人。同样自然的是，我会爱那些爱抚我的人，或者当我认为自己该受罚的时候，我会心甘情愿去承受。 9：It is not violence that best overcomes hate—nor vengeance that most certainly heals injury. 暴力不是消除仇恨的最好办法——同样，报复也绝对医治不了伤害。 10：Read the New Testament, and observe what Christ says, and how He acts; make His word your rule, and His conduct your example. 读一读《新约全书》，注意一下基督的言行，把他的话当作你的准绳，把他的行为当你的榜样吧。

  26小时25分钟，两个月断断续续看完了这本与《Pride and Prejudice》齐名的小说《Jane Eyre》，虽说都是爱情小说，但两者宣扬的主题却不同，前者表现的是理想的婚姻观，婚姻不应该建立在美貌，金钱，社会地位之上，而需要性格的契合和深厚的感情基础。后者作为20多年后的作品，思想又向前跨上一大步，在上帝面前人人平等，女性也不会因为性别，地位，相貌就丢失追求尊严与真爱的权利，就像简爱在作品里呐喊的那样：“你以为我穷，低微，不漂亮，我就没有灵魂没有心吗？你想错了! 我和你一样有灵魂，有一颗完整的心。” Jane仿佛是模仿作者夏洛蒂勃朗特这个模子刻出来的。Jane幼时父母双亡，还被舅妈歧视和虐待，后来被送到孤儿院，迎接她的是更为艰苦的生活。童年悲惨的经历让她变得格外早熟，也比其他人更具反叛精神，所幸的是她遇到了挚友Helen，从她身上继承了坚强乐观的精神，孤儿院辛勤的学习也让她成为有思想，有追求的女性，因为渴望外面的世界，她后来离开了孤儿院受聘成为家庭教师，在ThornHall Field邂逅了她命运的归宿Rochester。 之后就是感情的炼狱，原本两人已经突破财富，年龄，地位的束缚相爱，却意外发现Rochester还有个疯妻，感情瞬间坠入深渊。当时看到这段时，我在同情Rochester的同时，也鄙弃他隐瞒自己有婚姻的事实。到后来他的遭遇让我改变了想法，在Jane离去后，豪宅在疯妻一把火下成为灰烬，他自己却不愿离开这片废墟，因为这是他和Jane相识相爱的地方，曾经的餐桌，走道，房间都有着Jane的气息，到后来不幸失明，残疾才不得不离开。 世事无常，回到Jane这边，在离开Rochester后，她意外继承了一笔财富，也相认了三位亲人，并将财富平分给他们。Jane遇到了狂热的传教士表哥John，甚至想纯粹为了传教任务而娶Jane。庆幸的是，Jane不是唯唯诺诺的女性，坚持着内心最真实的想法，拒绝了John并回到Rochester的身边，不在意他的残疾，相依相随，成为Apple of his eyes，此后过着幸福美满的生活。 在当时写书时，夏洛蒂姐妹都得假托男性化笔名发布作品，可见当时女性面临着怎样的困境。所以这部《Jane Eyre》并不是单纯的爱情小说，对时代进步的影响可说是巨大的。一个平凡的人不安现状，敢于抗争，从小写的人变为大写的人。书里精致的景色描写，诗意的对白设计也值得细细品味。如果说《Pride and Prejudice》阅读难度是Level 4，《Jane Eyre》绝对有Level 5，看完的第三本英文原著mark。
