Charlotte Brontes Jane Eyre: A reconsideration :: Character Analysis, Miss Temple
In Lowood, a great part of Janes acknowledgment will be base on the concepts of (in)visibility as well as on the power of the gaze. Talking about Miss Temple, Jane Eyre dictates that Miss Temples language has something which chastened the pleasure of those who looked on her (Ch. , p.69). Unlike most of Janes visibilities, Miss Temple s is a positive visibility that pleases the beholders eyes. One may say this is because Jane loves this teacher and she is, more likely blinded by her love and confusion for Miss Temple. However, there is a sense of pleasantness associated with the character of Miss Temple. Such claims might be truer in the case of Jane who once goes on to say The refreshing meals, the brilliant fire. . . . they glowed in the bright tint of her cheek. (p. 70)After the departure of Miss Temple Jane who now lost her stead mother and till this act has never left Lowood is dawned by what she calls another discovery (p 81)I had undergone a transforming process that m y mind had put off all it had borrowed of Miss Temple . My area had for some years been in Lowood, my experience had been of its rules and systems now I remember that the real world is wide (81)The invisibility of Miss Temple has posed an fortune for Janes mind eye to transgress the visible (Lowood with all what it meant to Jane) to the invisible (or what she calls the real world) which, at this very moment, at least, invisible to her as it lies beyond the walls of this institution. It is this unthought-of-invisible that fashions Janes character in the coming chapters of the novel. It also determines her power of the gaze That is the way she looks at and feels about the world around her. Janes new romantic self becomes a corollary of her pursual in exploring the invisible that lies beyond the boundaries of Lowood. The new transformed self is also reflected in Janes forgiveness of her aunt Sarah Reed when she visits her at a latter time.I saw her in a black gown . From the town (85)I looked I saw a woman attired like a well-dressed consideration (86)After miss Temples departure from Lowood, Jane starts thinking ambitiously of knowing what lies beyond the boundaries of Lowood school
