It only mentions one boy. However, he is called the first-born, so there might have been other children.
The main characters in Jane Eyre are Jane Eyre, Mr. Rochester, and St. John Rivers. Jane is the protagonist, Mr. Rochester is her employer and love interest, and St. John Rivers is a clergyman and cousin of Jane.
In Charlotte Brontë's novel "Jane Eyre," Jane and Mr. Rochester have one child together, a son named John.
There are many events that occurred throughout the book Jane Eyre. Any of these events could be deemed last in any list.
If you are asking what genera Jane Eyre is in, Jane Eyre is a mix between both Romantic and Gothic. Jane Eyre has evidence for both such as love for nature (The apple tree, the walks Jane and Rochester takes) which is a part of romanticism, and The strong emotions portrayed throughout (The love between Rochester and Jane, the sense of loss and confusion Jane has after running from Thornfield) which is a part of Gothic writing. These are only a few of many traits that are apparent for both the Romantic and Gothic genres Jane Eyre falls under.
Mr. Rochester from "Jane Eyre" exhibits many traits of a Byronic hero, such as being brooding, arrogant, and mysterious. He is often portrayed as an outcast or a rebel, with a dark and troubled past that contributes to his complex character. Despite his flaws, Rochester is also charismatic and passionate, making him an intriguing figure in the novel.
Perhaps the biggest and most important secret in Jane Eyre is that Mr. Rochester has a lunatic wife named Bertha Mason. This secret serves as the solution to many of the mysteries in Jane Eyre: Mr. Rochester's bed catching on fire, Mason being wounded, and the maniacal laughter that Jane hears throughout the novel. Bertha Mason is the secret that explains why Mr. Rochester does not call for help when his bed is lit on fire and why he attempts to conceal Mason's injury to the rest of his visitors. This secret also explains the behavior of Grace Poole. When Jane Eyre hears the strange laughter, she thinks it is Grace Poole, when really it is Bertha Mason. Grace Poole is hardly seen around the house because she is in charge of taking care of the lunatic Bertha Mason. But, perhaps, the most important thing that this secret does is obstruct the first attempt of marriage between Jane Eyre and Mr. Rochester. When Jane and Mr. Rochester are at the altar, Mason walks in and publicly announces the existence of this Mrs. Rochester (Bertha Mason). When this secret becomes known, nothing can be done but for Jane to leave Mr. Rochester in order that he live properly with his wife and not with a "mistress" (according to the standards of Victorian society).
There have been many film adaptations produced. A new production has just been released, starring Mia Wasikowska as Jane and Michael Fassbender as Mr. Rochester. See the related link for a comprehensive list of productions.
Jane Eyre has sold over 50 million copies worldwide since it was first published in 1847.
It published Jane Eyre sometime in the mid-twentieth century. The company printed (prints) many books for school-aged children. They did not date their books published some decades ago- the same printings were used for many years. EVERY copy of Jane Eyre has a forward that is dated 1847, except the first printing. The forward was written for the Second Edition, and has been kept in every printing of the book since. So, just because that forward is there, does NOT mean the book was from 1847.
There is really only one plot in Jane Eyre, as it is written in first person. Read the book to figure out for yourself- it's a great book, no one should miss out on it
Since this character carries my surname, I have been highly interested in the history of this book. It is my conclusion, and the conclusion of others, that Jane Eyre is not a real person of whom Charlotte Bronte wrote about. However, there are many parallels between Jane's and Charlotte's life, such as going away to the school and the death of so many girls, and Jane's employment as a governess and falling in love with the Master of one place she was employed at. So, one could argue that Charlotte wrote about herself in the book. I kind of wish Jane was real. It would have been a great boon to have traced my genealogy to her. ~ Barbara Eyre North Carolina
