Conclusion
Theme:
Narrator Professor Interpretation: My professor interpretation deals with the first chapter called "Every trip is a Quest (except when it's not).” Jane agonizing experiences and struggles after leaving Thornfield and ending up in Whitcross is just another quest she takes that's an obstacle in life. One of the characteristics of this chapter is challenges and trials and she is challenged in this chapter and another characteristics of the chapter is the real reason is always self-knowledge. I believe after this quest, she will finally become one with herself and realize what she wants to do with herself, kind of like reaching nirvana. (Ryan)
