I Remembered Something!

In Nineteenth-Century Novel, while we were reading Jane Eyre, we discussed the idea that Jane and Bertha are doubles. The main idea that I remember was that Jane feels trapped working as a governess for Mr. Rochester, in the same way that Bertha Mason is trapped in the attic. Jane has a free spirit the same way that Bertha does; Bertha's free spirit is just "overly" free, because she is so trapped by society. I thought this idea was very relevant, because of my last post, and parallels I'm noticing between Jane's back-story and Bertha's back-story (or Antoinette's story). It gives my last post about Jane and Antoinette much more meaning.
