what is the major conflict of jane eyre?

Answer 1

Well, ultimately I think it was the negativities she set up for herself--she was a servant, not of classic beauty, had no particular talents-- and getting past her ideals of perfection for herself.

Literally, however, it was to overcome the feelings for her employer Mr. What's-his-name because of his wife who was insane and he was still legally married to her.

I didn't finish reading it, as I couldn't stand Jane. :)

Answer 2

Definitely read the book -- or at least watch one of the film versions.

Within Jane herself? Her love for a man who lied to her.
or
The major conflict in the book? Social Norms versus Personal Happiness.

Answer 3

i read this book for a class a couple of years ago...and i'm not sure if this is right but i remember something about the conflict between her love for that old dude and her desire to be independent and prove to herself that she can be on her own. only in the end when she does discover that she can be independent does she come back to be with the man she loves.

Answer 4

If you have not read the book, you should. This text is considered part of the canon. Think about the time it was written and that should lead you in the right direction.

Answer 5

Is love more important that being good? Can a sinner ever be happy? Do the right thing, or do the easy thing?
