Jane Eyre Mimetic Analysis

Jane Eyre mimics real life in many instances, especially Jane's interactions with Rochester. We discussed in class that humans do not develop correctly unless they have proper interaction with other humans. Jane is not developed, she has never had interactions with males besides John and Mr. Brocklehurst. Jane, along with many other people in today's world, is socially awkward when it comes to the opposite sex. Jane cannot comprehend romantic interaction, she acts like someone much younger than she is. She has never had romantic interaction, this deprivation creates awkwardness. Jane reminds me of a freshman, they are seemingly oblivious to many things going on in life. They do not gain knowledge until that have had experience.
