Abstract
Jane Eyre is the masterpiece of Charlotte Bronte, who is a famous talented realistic woman novelist. This thesis discusses the characters of Jane in the social background of realism. It includes Jane Eyre’s pursuit of love and her pursuit of liberty and equality. Jane is neither a very beautiful woman, nor rich, but her genuine, selfless love for Rochester, and her good personality strike us deeply. On the other hand, we should see the author’ s limitation. In that society, it is impossible for Jane and Rochester to be really equal in social class. They are just equal in spirit. They get together because Rochester has been blinded by the fire and has lost his wealth at the end of the novel. Therefore, they get married on the condition that their gap of social classes narrows. However, We should learn her virtue. We should pursue our ideals and have our opinions about everything. Jane Eyre sets a good example for women and is a good model for women forever.
Key words: Jane Eyre; Charlotte Bronte; Rochester; Critical realism; critical realists

《简爱》是现实主义时期著名的女作家夏洛蒂—勃朗特的代表作品。本论文结合现实主义的社会背景讨论了简爱的性格。它包括简爱对于爱情以及自由和平等的追求。简爱既不漂亮，也不富有，但她对于罗彻斯特真诚而无私的爱，以及她美好的人格深深地打动了我们。另一方面，我们也应该看到作者的局限性，在那时的社会，简爱和罗彻斯特不可能在社会阶级上实现真正的平等，他们只是在精神上的平等。在小说的结尾他们走到了一起，正是因为罗彻斯特在火灾中双目失明而且丢失了他的财产，因此，他们是在阶级差距缩小的情况下结婚的。不管怎样，我们应该学习简爱的优点。我们应该有自己的理想和对一切事物的看法，简爱为女性树立了好榜样，而且永远值得女性学习。
