Source- Jane Eyre Charlotte Bronte
Prompt-
Edward Mendelson, a professor of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University, argues that “Jane Eyre is a novel of education in which the heroine seems to need no education…She suffers repeatedly, yet she always ends by making the right moral choice, apparently without ever having educated herself into doing so. Charlotte Bronte provides a detailed model of how to act, but, most oddly for a novel of education, she seems to provide no model at all of how to learn to act” (80).
