Jane Eyre- Thornfield

Thornfield 

Characters

John, the driver- takes Jane from the George Inn in Millcote to Thornfield. 

Leah- a maid-servant. 

Mrs Fairfax- a neat, elderly widow, and manager/housekeeper of Thornfield. 

Miss Adela Varens- Rochester's ward, and the girl Jane is to govern. Sheis 'docile, but disinclined to apply'. She is very expressive and was trained a little in singing and recitation by her mother. 

Mr Edward Rochester- owner of Thornfield. 35 years old, or thereabouts. 

Sophie- Adela's French nurse/attendant. 

Madam Frédéric and her husband- couple who took care of Adele after her mom died, and before Rochester took her in. 

Grace Poole- the servant that looks after Bertha. 

Mr Carter- the surgeon who examines Rochester's sprained leg. 

Rowland Rochester- Edward's brother, who, we are told, wasn't just in his representation of Edward to his father. They conspired to help Edward make a fortune for himself with some arrangement that Edward never approved of. 

Celine Varens- a French opera dancer and Adele's mother, for whom Edward says he once cherished a grand passion. Edward catches her in an affair and ends everything with her. Celine says Adele is his daughter, so she left Adele with Edward and ran away to Italy with another boyfriend. 

The Leas- neighbors 

Mr and Mrs Eshton and daughters, Amy and Louise- neighbors 

Lady Ingram- very nice looking, but very haughty 

Blanche Ingram- very pretty. 

Mary Ingram- a bit slim and very quiet. 

Lady Lynn- 40ish, haughty and stout 

Mr Frederick Lynn 

Mrs Colonel Dent- 

Mr Richard Mason- from the West Indies, brother of Berta. 

The gypsy fortune-teller- sees all the young women, lastly Jane, who he asks pointed questions about her feelings for Rochester, only to reveal he is Rochester in disguise 

While Edward can act imperiously and commanding towards Jane, he still invites her into his presence as an equal and confides himself to her. She appreciates this connection and desires his presence. After the neighbor's party, where she learns of Blanche Ingram, Jane denigrates herself for thinking that she might fit into Rochester's world. But during the party, she watches and feels that the ladies there are not connected with him the way she is. She is slighted at various times during the party by some of the ladies. But while she is engaged in watching Rochester and Blanche consult during the game of charades see lets the reader know that she is not jealous. She senses Blanche is inferior to her. Miss Ingram is showy, but not genuine; accomplished but with a poor mind; she was not original, nor had she any opinions of her own. She believes Rochester will marry her, though she doesn't know why, but that Miss Ingram had nothing with which she could charm him. 

In the aftermath of Bertha's attack on Mason, Jane is drawn even more into Rochester's confidence. He notes that she is willing to help in everything, as long as it is right. 

Gateshead Hall- a brief return 

A message arrives that Mrs Reed is on her death bed and has requested to speak to Jane. Jane returns and is greeted cooly by the daughters, Eliza and Georgiana. But Jane finds that they no longer intimidate her. When she sees Mrs Reed, she realizes that she now only wishes to forgive and be reconciled. 

Mrs Reed informs her that three years ago, Jane's wealthy uncle from Madeira had wished to adopt her and make her his heir. He was told Jane was dead. 

The struggle here is letting go of the old wounds and forgiving, even when those that have wronged her are only half-repentant. 

Thornfield continued 

Mr Wood- the clergyman who performs the wedding ceremony 

John Green- The clerk at the church 

Mr Briggs- Solicitor from London who stops the wedding with the news that Rochester is already married. 

Bertha Antoinetta Mason Rochester- Edward's first wife. 

Jane's Struggle 

Jane returns to Thornfield and meeting Rochester, says, "Wherever you are is my home- my only home." But she is also convinced Rochester will be married to Blanche, and she had asked to be sent away before Blanche moved in. Jane spills her feelings to Rochester one night, who then lets her know that it is her he wishes to marry, not Blanche. So he proposes and she accepts. In the interim 4 weeks she resolves to let him know all her rough edges, so that he will not be deceived about who she is. She refuses finery and declares she will continue as the governess until married. But she confesses that he was becoming an idol to her, her whole world. On the day of the wedding, it is revealed that Rochester is already married to a mad woman. Jane is devastated at the loss of her soulmate. She understands that she must leave Thornfield. Rochester begs forgiveness, which Jane gives him. 

Rochester confesses his love and claims Jane must not love him if she insists on leaving.  

He offers marriage on the Continent where his current marriage won't be an impediment. 

He tells her that the marriage was a trick played on him for money. 

He tells her he married Bertha when he was still young and foolish. 

He paints Bertha as fiendish and demonic. 

He swears he will take care of Bertha, but she herself will not let him live as her husband. 

He shares his history of interactions with women all through the continent, being continually deceived until he found Jane, the authentic love of his life. 

He first gives all the reasons why, while technically married, he should not be considered as such... and then he appeals to Jane's heart by confessing his love of her for who she is. 

Then he appeals to Jane by telling her that his life and happiness are dependent on her. 

But Jane sees that this is an idol that she must renounce. 

Rochester continues to tempt her, but she answers his temptations with what is right. 

Jane's struggle is with all of these temptations- rationalizations of sin. She finally finds connection and love and when an inconvenient truth gets in the way, she chooses to let the Lord guide her and take care of it, rather than trying to take care of it herself.

GALLERYYUHSELF - from The National Archives of Trinidad and Tobago.

As we celebrate Carnival’s return the history of the streets in Downtown Port of Spain that we parade through? Some of their names changed two-three times over the centuries as our governance passed from Spanish to British, while others remained unchanged till today!

Duncan Street was originally “Calle del Infante” by the Spanish, then “Rue des Trois Chandelles” by French residents after 3 candles that were lit on meeting nights of the Masonic Lodge.

Under British rule, this street was renamed after British Admiral Adam Duncan. Nelson Street was first called “Calle Principe” by the Spanish, then “La Rue d’Eglise” by the French because it was near The Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception. The British renamed it after British Admiral Lord Nelson.

George Street was originally called “Calle de San Jose” by the Spanish, then “Rue de la Place” by the French because of the market that existed there. The British renamed it after King George III.

Charlotte Street was originally “Calle de Santa Ana” by the Spanish, and “Rue de Sainte Anne” by the French, because it led to St. Ann’s River. The British decided to rename it after Queen Charlotte. Henry Street was originally “Calle Herrera” by the Spanish after their Chief of Police who lived there. The French called it “Rue Neuve”, and the British renamed it after Prince Henry of England.

Frederick Street was originally “Calle de San Carlos” after King Charles II of Spain. The French called it “Rue des Anglais”, and the British renamed it after Frederick Prince of Wales.

Chacon Street, named after Governor Don José María Chacón, is the only street whose name has never been changed. Independence Square was originally “Plaza del Marina” by the Spanish because it bordered the sea. Afterwards, it was renamed “King Street”, then “Marine Square”, and finally, Independence Square.

Finally, Queen Street was originally “Calle de San Luis”, Prince Street was originally, “Calle de Santa Rosa”, and Duke Street was originally, “Calle del Asturias”.

This 1845 map of Port of Spain is part of the National Archives of Trinidad and Tobago Map Collection.

The Merry Company

Rochester sends Jane to fetch him some wine from the drawing room. He asks what the merry company were doing while she was fetching it, whether they looked grave and mysterious. Jane responds that no, they were talking and laughing, and yes, Mr Mason was laughing too. Here I am going to copy some of the dialogue that goes on between Jane and Rochester.

Rochester: “If all these people came in a body and spat at me, what would you do, Jane?”

Jane: “Turn them out of the room, sir, if I could.”

Rochester, half smiling: “But if I were to go to them, and they only looked at me coldly, and whispered sneeringly amongst each other, and then dropped off and left me one by one, what then? Would you go with them?”

Jane: “I rather think not, sir: I should have more pleasure in staying with you.”

Rochester: “To comfort me?”

Jane: “Yes, sir, to comfort you, as well as I could.”

Rochester: “And if they laid you under a ban for adhering to me?”

Jane: “I, probably, should know nothing about their ban; and if I did, I should care nothing about it.”

Rochester: “Then, you could dare censure for my sake?”

Jane: “I could dare it for the sake of any friend who deserved my adherence; as you, I am sure, do.”

He then asks her to get Mason to come to see him in the library. Jane does so and goes to bed.

And thus Jane declares her unconditional love to her employer and I am, dear readers, in despair. Sigh again. She is addressing him as "sir" throughout this whole exchange. If she just once called him Edward, even by a mere slip of the tongue, it would be at least a bit romantic. Well, as romantic as you can get with this egotistical eyesore.

Turn them out of the room, would she, if they came and spat at you, Edward? You went out of your way to make their stay as unpleasant as possible for her, forcing her to sit in the drawing room with them, while being well aware that she is not of their class, you openly flirted with, and pretty much confirmed IN THIS VERY CONVERSATION that you'll marry, Blanche Ingram. OF COURSE SHE IS NOT GOING TO HAVE ANY LOYALTY TO THEM, OF COURSE SHE IS GOING TO TAKE YOUR SIDE, YOU PAY HER FUCKING WAGES AND SHE HAS JUST MORE OR LESS CONFESSED SHE IS IN LOVE WITH YOU--WHICH YOU ALREADY FIGURED OUT THAT TIME YOU AMBUSHED HER IN THE HALL!!!

Let's take a look at the members of the merry company. We have Sir George Lynn, an MP (Member of Parliament) for Millcote, his wife and two sons, Henry and Frederick. Mr Eshton, the magistrate, with his wife and daughters (it's said they have three but only two feature in the narrative, Amy and Louisa). There's young Lord Ingram, his mother the lady dowager and her two daughters Blanche and Mary. And finally Colonel Dent and his wife. By all means a respectable society. If these people, all these people, banded together and spat at Rochester, or at once left his house with quickly made up excuses, they probably would have a good reason. And it wouldn't be being pranked by Edward in a gypsy woman's costume. I googled the phrase "lay under a ban" and if I understand it correctly, it means being shunned from society. It's funny you know, because it's not like Jane has anything to do with them, she's not even anywhere near their radar to be put under a "ban". I repeat again, she's a governess. 

And Rochester knows this! He's only asking her those questions to assure himself of her unconditional devotion to him.

Jane may think that she doesn't care about the opinion of the merry company now. However, if she married Rochester and became the mistress of Thornfield, I wonder how long she would continue not caring about their position in the society? If their children had no friends because their daddy was a persona non grata?

Although the image of Jane turning the merry company out of the room is endlessly entertaining. Short, slight Jane against six men, one of whom is a military officer.

As Thomas Johnson notes in this July 16, 1780 letter, Mr. Cock requested to a captain in the regiment in July. Also see the pensions of Robert Green, Solomon Turner, Aquilla Smith, Wilson Moore, William Nick, John Ferguson, and Patrick Connolly for other mentions of Mr. Bayley, who has a service card on Fold3, but apparently no pension. He would later be listed as living in Frederick County, just like the rest of the Bayley/Bailey family in Maryland, and lived a total of 81 years.

Courtesy of Fold3.com. Specifically, the Fold3 muster rolls, not the serve cards, show that John Clare "deserted from Annapolis"  three were sick in an Annapolis Hospital, six deserted at Head of Elk on Sept. 3 (William Ewing, Joseph White, Roger Sullivan, John Smith, Michael [last name cannot be made out], and James Hopkins), six hadn't joined (John Jackson, Josias Miller, John Anderson, Morris Leary, Thomas Gibson, John Neale), three were sick in Philly Hospital (William Gillaspie, Christopher Lambert, and Patrick Charro?), and four were on command (Josiah Mason, Thomas Burke, ? Woodward, and Michael Redman), leaving a company which is supposed to be 60, of actually only 37. Service Cards confirm this, showing that John Burke and William Devine were sick in an Annapolis hospital, that John Clare deserted from Annapolis, that William Gillaspie/Gilasby was sick in Philly hospital and Leonard Smith was sick on furlough, and having records of five who deserted at "Head of Elk": William Ewing, John Smith, Michael Streeker, Roger Sullivan, and Joseph White. Also, a man named John Allison is mentioned on a return of Sept. 29, 1780 as present, but noting else is known.

[12] These seventeen others, not including dead James North or deserter John Tucker, are: Richard Whiley, Patrick Riley, John Butcher, John Robbins, Robert Ferrell, John Jones, Elijah Clarke, John Freeman, Anthony Wedge, William Groves, Thomas Elliss, Thomas Matthews, Stephen Fennell, Thomas Burch, Charles Reynolds (possibly mentioned in this pension), Timothy McLamar, and John Clayton.

[13] The list of "recruits and deserters," were acquired by Queen Ann's County officers, including William Hemsley, for the regiment, raised in July shows 2 people who deserted before joining (Thomas Fox and Valentine Saint Tee), three former deserters who never joined (Thomas Trew, Joseph Crouch, and James Chittendon), while three former deserters did join (David Willon, Thomas Terrett, and Benjamin Loftsman). Then there are the 25 regular people recruited who are not deserters: Thomas Yewell, George Duncan, Edward Legg, Charles White, Job Sylvester, Robert Legg, Thomas Gadd, William Aller, Daniel Dulany, John West Tate, Benjamin Lee, Richard Gemmeson, Edward Vickers, Elijah Barn, John Oliver (possibly him but cannot be confirmed), William Carter, John Moore, John West, Joseph Paggat, James Baver, Lambert Phillips, John Hickins, Richard Murphy, Timothy Connor, and Edward Dominie.

[14] The other 22 men are William Clements, James Bartclay, William Jeffries, Francis Rogers, Dennis Larey, John Cooper, Elisa Huff, George Plumbley, Bauer Wibb, Frederick James, Jesse Power (close but not his pension) William Hickin, Joseph Points, William Simmons (close but not his pension), Benjamin Smith (related to the other Smiths?), John Bryan, William Campbell, John Muir, William Holt, John Lewin, John Moore, and John Newton ("wounded in two instances" as a result of his fighting in the war).

E. Matthews #Robert Ardrey #Play adaptation #I recorded this off the TV because Michael Redgrave and because it was described as a supernatural chiller. Actually it isn't really a #Ghost story at all at least in the traditional sense: Redgrave is an embittered writer who tried to warn the world about Nazi Germany and #Has now secluded himself on a lighthouse. He imagines the ghosts to pass the time and to try to gain some understanding of people and what #Makes them despair and give up. Cue some pretty sad portmanteau stories and a hefty case of are the ghosts real or part of his fragile #Psyche. In all honesty it isn't quite as interesting as that description makes it sound and it suffers a little from being ww2 propaganda #With all the chest thumping and moralising that brings with it. Redgrave is wonderful tho and really sells his desperately torn and #Wilfully misanthropic loner. Mason lends solid support (rare to see him in a smaller role for me) and lovely lilli palmer is tragedy made #Human. But a slightly ponderous self important tone and a tendency toward hand wringing make this an occasional chore when it should be #Just entertaining.
