Jane Eyre: A Connection

A connection that I could make with Jane Eyre to another book was with Pride & Prejudice. The reason I found this connection is by the two main character’s Jane Eyre and Elizabeth Bennet. Both women I believe had the same kind of air in the way they acted. Elizabeth Bennet never went through the kind of suffering as Jane, yet they both were strong women who spoke their mind even though in their times it was not proper to do so. Both women are offered marriage. Jane was going to marry Mr. Rochester yet she ran away after what was revealed during the ceremony. Also Elizabeth fully rejected Mr. Darcy`s offer of marriage, leaving both characters unmarried for a period of time. England is the country where both characters were born and grew up in. Both ladies at the end of the book marry their significant other and end up having the generic happily ever after story.  Jane Eyre and Elizabeth Bennet both have similarities yet also many differences leaving no more possible similarities to compare.
