简 介
简·爱背负着自然与社会给她的一切不幸，开始了她的人生：她没有双亲，没有钱财，她是（男人世界中的）一个弱女子；雪上加霜的是，她不漂亮。她有着坚强的个性，这使她在世人眼里更加失去了魅力，因为她不会对别人逆来顺受。
她不像是世上伟大爱情故事中的女主角，然而她却有着相当于此的举动。世人看到的是她的种种劣势，告诉她对生活不要有太多奢望。然而简·爱不听这一套，她拒绝接受世人给予她的卑微地位。她要求世人接受她的本来面目：她可能微不足道，但却是自己命运的主宰；她也许不漂亮，却值得他人爱。
夏洛特·勃朗蒂（1816—1855）是英国最伟大的小说家之一。她在英格兰北部约克郡的生活本身狭窄有限，然而其小说充满激情与想像，享誉世界。

对简爱宗教人物形象与道德的分析
Religion, Morality and Christianity in Jane Eyre
摘要
在《简•爱》中，宗教是一个频繁出现的主题。主要的宗教人物有海伦、布洛克赫斯特先生、圣约翰和简•爱。简•爱最终拒绝选择走和前三者相同的宗教信仰之路，而是她一边学习，一边经历，一边成长，最终开辟了一条与众不同而且最适合她走的路。依赖上帝的力量和指引，同时不放弃自我的价值和尊严。 关键词: 宗教；道德；基督徒
Abstract
Religion is frequently recurring theme in Jane Eyre. The religious beliefs and attitudes of Helen Burns, Mr.Brocklehurst, St.John and Jane are the most impressive. Helen represents a mode of Christianity that stresses tolerance and acceptance. She believes that justice will be found in God's ultimate judgment--the good will be rewarded and the evil will be punished. Mr.Brocklehurst is a cruel, hypocritical and abusive man. All his piety to God is shallow display. He embodies an evangelical form of religion and seeks to gain power and control others by taking advantage of religion. St.John is entirely alienated from his feelings and devoted solely to an austere ambition--be a missionary, the follower of God. Though he is not a religious hypocrite like Brocklehurst, but he is also rigidly principled and lacking empathy that his behavior is potentially just as destructive. Jane ultimately rejects all the three models of religion as she forms her own ideas about faith and principle. But she does not abandon morality, spiritualism and a belief in a Christian God. For Jane, religion helps curb immoderate passions, and it spurs one on to worldly efforts and achievements. These achievements include full self-knowledge and complete faith in God.
Keywords: Religion; Morality; Christianity

Religion, Morality and Christianity in Jane Eyre
I. Introduction
Among all the religions by which people seek to worship, Christianity is by far the most influential and widely spread, especially in the west. Every phase of westerners' life is touched by this religion, so much so that it has become part and parcel of western culture. The Bible is a collection of religious writings comprising stories of God, the laws of God and the doctrine of Jesus Christ. The Bible is the most popular book in the culture of mankind. It is the essential of western civilization, having shaped the western civilization more decisively than anything else ever written. Almost all great authors of Biblical themes have been a literary tradition. In fact few great English writers of the seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth century can be read and appreciated with satisfaction without a sufficient knowledge of the Bible. In Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre, religion is frequently recurring theme. The principle religious characters represent some widely differing views of religion in general and Christianity in particular. Helen Burns, Mr.Brocklehurst and St.John are the most impressive and each represents a model of religion that Jane, the heroine of this book, ultimately rejects as she forms her own ideas about faith and principle.
II. The three typical religious modes Jane rejects
A. Helen Burns is Jane's first and the best friend in Lowood. Helen represents a mode of Christianity that stresses tolerance and acceptance. She has a matyrlike attitude toward the miseries she suffers at Lowood. Though Helen is always punished for trifling faults, vengeance never comes to her mind. She tells Jane there is no good in revenge and the Bible bids Christians to return good for evil. Besides, only because she sometimes fail to live up to her ascetical standards, she chatises herself for daydreaming, for unable to be concentrating on her studies. She is self-critical,
believing herself has too many faults. That is why she is frequently punished by Miss Scatcherd. Helen ascetically trusts her own faith and strictly abides by the laws of God. When Helen tells Jane that she practices a doctrine of Christian endurance which means loving her enemies and accepting her privation, Jane disagrees strongly with such meek tolerance of injustice but Helen takes no heed of Jane's arguments. She is not oblivious to the injustices the girls suffer at Lowood. She believes justice will be found in God's ultimate judgment--God will reward the good and punish the evil. Utterly passive and accepting of any objection, Helen embodies the Christian ideas of love and forgiveness. The angelic Helen Burns and her doctrine of endurance represent a religious position that contrasts with Mr.Brocklehurst's.
B. Mr.Brocklehurst is the headmaster of Lowood school. He is a cruel, hypocritical and abusive man, preaching a doctrine of poverty and privation to his students. By his orders, girls in Lowood are underfed, overworked and forced to sit still during简爱赏析,英语版。
seemingly endless sermons. The girls have neither chances nor rights to take pleasure in worldly things. While he claims to be purging his students of pride, his method of subjecting them to various privations and humiliations, like when he orders that the naturally curly hair of one of Jane's classmates be cut short so as to lay down straight, such cruelty is entirely unchristian. On one hand, Mr.Brocklehurst orders the girls be poor, simple, devout and economical, live as ascetical as Christians should be. On the other hand, he uses the school's funds to provide a wealthy and opulent lifestyle for his own family. His wife and daughters have beautiful curly hair which he claims the most hateful and unnatural and they are splendidly attired in fashionable clothes made by velvet, silk, and furs. That proves Brocklehurst's hypocrisy. Mr.Brocklehurst embodies an evangelical form of religion. He illustrates the dangers and hypocrisies that Charlotte Bronte perceived in the nineteenth century evangelical movement. “Conventionality is not morality” Bronte wrote. “Self-righteousness is not religion. To attack the first is not to assail the last” (From the preface of Jane Eyre).
Mr.Brocklehurst claims to be self-righteous, he pretends to be “God” in Lowood. He gives the laws and others accept and obey. In fact, his “piety” is shallow devotional display. He is a religious hypocrite as Helen says,“ Mr.Brocklhurst is not a god；nor is he a great and admired man” (Chapter 8). Compared to the most devout Helen, Brocklehurst is a religious mimic.
C. St.John is Jane's cousin. He is a clergyman, the minister at Morton. St.John is cold, reserved and often controlling in his interactions with others because he is
entirely alienated from his feelings and devoted solely to an austere ambition—to be a missionary in India. He makes this decision because he heard God's call. Though he admires Rosamond for her beauty, he refuses to allow worldly affection to interfere with his holy duties. He knows Rosamond would make a terrible wife for a
missionary. At last, he asks Jane to go to India with him and to be his wife. Because he believes Jane would make a good wife for him, for Jane’s endurance, her strength of principle and her ability to fulfill her goal proves to him. Jane refuses his proposal many times because they are not in love. St.John harshly insists that she should marry him, declaring that to refuse his proposal is the same as to deny the Christian faith. St.John's character emerges forcefully in the last parts of this book. He provides an interesting comparison to the models of religion embodied in Helen Burns and Mr.Brocklehurst. Unlike the meek and forbearing Helen, St.John is active and even ambitious. He is not a religious hypocrite, for there is a true Christian charity in his heart. He gives poor Jane foods and a shelter even a home. But he is so rigidly principled and lacking in empathy and worldly affection that his behavior is
potentially just as destructive. St.John believes that all worldly emotion and love are
weaknesses of human and should be abandoned. He urges Jane to resist such
temptation and do as him to be a follower of God. That is God's will. Finally, he goes to India by himself. In his last letter to Jane, he says he has a premonition of his own approaching death. He has fulfilled his promise to God and done God's work. In the end of the letter, he begs the Lord Jesus to come for him quickly. The Christian morality and Christianity in St.John is overwhelming.
III. The maturity of Jane as a Christian
The maturity of Jane's morality and Christianity is central to the novel. The three main religious figures she encounters, Helen Burns, Mr.Brocklehurst and St.John Rivers, each represents a model of religion that Jane ultimately rejects as she forms her own ideas about faith and principle. Jane quests for love and happiness not only through her own efforts, but also counts on God's guidance and support. Jane struggles to find the right balance between moral duty as a Christian and earthly pleasures, between obligation to her Christianity and attention to her body. The course of Jane's maturity on her morality and Christianity can be divided into four parts: In Gateshead Hall-- In Lowood school-- In Thornfield Hall-- In Moor House.
A. Jane spends ten years in Gateshead. Little Jane possesses a sense of her
self-worth and dignity, a commitment to justice and principle, a trust in God and a passionate disposition. Her cousin John Reeds treats her with appalling cruelty during their childhood. Jane feels exiled and astracized in Gateshead because no one loves her. Jane is forbidden to play as her cousins do. John chides Jane for being a lonely orphan who is only permitted to live with the Reeds because of his mother's charity. They quarrel and fight. Mrs Reed holds only Jane responsible for the scuffle, even the servants think Jane is wicked and should be punished. The servants believe Jane is not as good as them because she is penniless and naughty and she can do nothing to
reward Mrs Reed's charity. In little Jane's opinion, all these are injustice. At that time Jane is not moralized. Her knowledge about the Christian morality is scarce, never mention laws of God. That is why she is not well-principled. In the early chapters, Bronte establishes the young Jane's character through her confrontations with John and Mrs Reed, in which Jane's good-hearted but strong-willed determination and integrity become apparent. Little Jane knows little about Christianity, she reads a few stories about the Christian spirit which she is interested in. When she cannot bear her aunt's accusation she cries out to defend herself to her aunt. “I am glad you are no relation of mine. I will never call you aunt again as long as I live. I will never come to visit you when I am grown up...” (Chapter 4). She does as her passionate disposition permits. Little Jane has no proper principle to abide by.

四．读后感 在读完《简爱》后，我发现主人公简爱虽然身材瘦小，相貌平凡，无金
钱，无地位，却有着不平凡的气质和非常丰富的情感世界。她在生活的磨练中抛弃了女性天
生的懦弱与娇柔逐渐养成了坚强独立的个性。她不会在表兄残暴面前甘心被辱，而是据理力
争。即使结果不尽人意，却始终如一没有低头。在魔鬼般冷酷的布洛克尔赫斯先生的折磨下，
她不会表现出任何恐惧，而是从容的扛下来，独立坚强的活下来。 我喜欢简爱在地位比她高的所谓上流社会人士面前表现出的那种不卑不亢的态度，喜欢
她在面对爱时表现出的的那种自尊自强的精神。面对罗切斯特的轻视，她说出了那句“你以
为就因为我穷，低微，不美，我就没有心，没有灵魂吗？我跟你一样有灵魂，也完全一样有
一颗心。要是上帝也赐予我美貌和财富的话，我也会让你难以离开我，就像我现在难以离开
你一样！”这句话震撼了多少人？试问在距离她所处的年代进步了几百年的现代，又有几个女
子有勇气为了自己的尊严而对一个心爱又富有的男子说不呢？而在面对爱情时简爱是理智的，
是智慧的。没有被爱情蒙蔽双眼，没有因利益而牺牲感情。 简爱善良热心，宽容大度。她最终原谅了她的舅妈，接受了她临终的忏悔。她并没有因
曾拒绝了圣约翰的求婚而畏手畏脚，反倒是身为牧师的圣约翰感到愧对简爱。在简爱的世界，
让我感受到了爱情的浪漫，亲情的温馨，友情的坚强。与她所经历的一切相比，我们生活的
环境是多么的美好？有亲人的疼爱，有学校的教导，有朋友的的陪伴，生活在科技发达，丰
富多彩的花花世界里?可为什么有时候现在人们常常还会感觉到失落？感觉到不满足？为什
么时常会对一些小事斤斤计较？为什么往往会在失去后才懂得珍惜？为什么有些爱情和友情
变得更加的不长久？读完《简爱》我想对所以的朋友说：世界是美好的，我们要懂得用心去
感受，要慢慢学会去相信，去体会生活的价值。我们要为自己的灵魂而活，不为利益，不为
物质，只为自己活得更有价值，活得舒心。珍惜身旁我们该珍惜的人，帮助一些需要帮助的
人，面对一些不好的事与人，我们要学会包容，感激，那时我们会感觉到自己学到了更多的
东西，感觉到生活变得更加的美好！无论面对什么，我们都应坚守自己尊严，追从我们自己
的心，用真实的自我从容的面对一切，那时我们会体会到原来幸福很简单，会发现幸福可以
使一件很小的事物，可以无处不在！^^
五．总结【收获】
无论我们经历怎样的挫折，我们都可以拥有自己的尊严，只要我们坚持不懈，每一个挫
折都有解决的方法，只要我们乐观的对待一切，相信我们微笑的面对世界，世界也会微笑着
对我们！
六．我喜欢的句子段落 1.你以为我穷、卑微、普通、渺小，就没有灵魂没有感情了吗？
你以为，因为我穷、低微、不美、矮小，我就没有灵魂没有心么？你想错了！——我的灵魂
跟你的一样，我的心也跟你的完全一样！要是上帝赐予我一点美和一点财富，我就要让你感
到难以离开我，就像我现在难以离开你一样。
2.我总觉得生命太短促，不应该把它化在怀恨和记仇上。在这尘世上，我们人人都有一
身罪过，而且不可能不是这样。但我相信，不久就会有那一天，我们摆脱了腐朽的躯壳，也
就摆脱了这种罪过。堕落和罪孽会随着这个累赘的血肉之躯一起离开我们，只留着生命的火
花---生命和思想的无形源泉，纯洁的就像它当初离开造物主给人生命时一样。
3.整座房子寂静无声，因为我相信，除了圣·约翰和我自己，所有的人都安息了。那一
根蜡烛幽幽将灭，室内洒满了月光。我的心砰砰乱跳，我听见了它的搏动声。突然一种难以
言表的感觉使我的心为之震颤，并立即涌向我的头脑和四肢，我的心随之停止了跳动。这种
感觉不象一阵电击，但它一样地尖锐，一样地古怪，一样地惊人。它作用于我的感官，仿佛
它们在这之前的最活跃时刻也只不过处于麻木状态。而现在它们受到了召唤，被弄醒了。它
们起来了，充满了期待，眼睛和耳朵等候着，而肌肉在骨头上哆嗦。篇二：简爱英文读书报

goodness is to humans what water is to fish. he who is without goodness is an utterly
worthless person. on the contrary, as the famous saying goes, ?the fragrance always
stays in the hand that gives the rose?, he who is with goodness undoubtedly is a happy
and useful person. people receiving his help are grateful to him and he also gets
gratified from what he has done, and thus he can do good to both the people he has
helped and himself.
to my disappointment, nowadays some people seem to doubt the existence of the
goodness in humanity. they look down on people?s honesty and kindness, thinking it
foolish of people to be warm-hearted. as a result, they show no sympathy to those
who are in trouble and seldom offer to help others. on the other hand, they attach
importance to money and benefit.
