Jane Eyre

《简爱》

《简·爱》最初的出版商史密斯先生不遗余力地称赞这部小说是他出版过的最伟大的作品，而伟大的无产阶级革命导师卡尔·马克思也十分赞赏夏洛蒂对英国社会的深刻揭露，并把她与狄更斯、萨克雷和盖斯凯尔夫人并称为“现代英国的一批杰出的小说家”。

Jane Eyre is a fascinating novel by English writer Charlotte Bronte(夏洛蒂·勃朗特), who has been acclaimed as “the first historian of the self-consciousness” and the literary ancestor of writers like James Joyceand Marcel Proust (詹姆斯·乔伊斯/马塞尔·普鲁斯特，二者均为意识流文学的先驱与大师，前者著有《都柏林人》，后者著有《追忆似水年华》Remembrance of Things Past) .

Jane Eyre contains elements of social criticism, with a strong sense of morality at its core, but is nonetheless a novel many consider ahead of its time given the individualistic character of Jane and the novel's exploration of classism（阶级论）, sexuality（性学）, religion（宗教）, and proto-feminism(原型女性主义).

Highlights：

Am I a machine without feelings? Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? I have as much soul as you and full as much heart. And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you.

你当我是没有感情的机器吗？难道就因为我一贫如洗，默默无闻，长相平庸个子瘦小我就没有灵魂没有真心了吗？我的心灵跟你一样丰富，我的心胸跟你一样充实。要是上帝赐予我一点姿色和充足的财富，我本可以让你对我不能自拔，就像现在我对你一样。
