moreover， he courts He does not regard Jane as a full， independent person but an accessory that would help his proposed missionary In the novel， Jane witnesses and resents the hypocrisy of M Brocklehurst， and she cannot quite profess Helen’s absolute， selfless Jane “does not follow a particular doctrine， but she is sincerely religious in a nondoctrinaire way” (“Jane Eyre” 170) Another theme of Jane Eyre is the search for home and family， which is also closely associated with search for Throughout the novel， Jane searches for kinship， a sense of place in a relationship characterized by “fellow-feeling，” a term Jane uses According to Lamonica， “the novel plots her course from displacement at Gateshead Hall， where she is ‘like nobody there’， to ‘full fellow-feeling’ with the Rivers family at Moor House， and finally to symbiosis with Rochester at Ferndean， where she is ‘ever more absolutely bone of his bone， and flesh of his ’” (67-68) In the opening scene of the novel， the Reed children cluster around their mother in a classic Victorian family tableau， the mother “reclined on a sofa by the fire-side” with her “darlings about her，” looking “perfectly happy” (Bronte 3) Jane， an orphan less than a servant， is Jane’s original self-conception at Gateshead is thus determined expressly by her difference and distance from the family She is， to both herself and her relations， an anomaly (Lamonica 74) Shunted off to Lowood Institution， Jane finds a home of sorts， although her place here is “ambiguous and temporary” (“Jane Eyre” 171) Jane’s time at Lowood gives her the “opportunity to position and define herself within a new， all-female community” (Lamonica 76) Her time under the influence of Helen and Miss temple serves to placate the deep impression of her childhood sufferings， but it does not alter the character of her She persists in asserting， “I was no Helen Burns” (Bronte 75) Jane’s relationship with Rochester is governed by the self-images she acquired at Gateshead and L The various， sometimes conflicting， aspects of her developing selfhood – “her passion and her self-control， her desire to live ‘as an independent being ought to do’ and to think well of herself， as well as her need to be accepted and thought well of by others” – determines her longing for kinship (Lamonica 78) However， for Jane， this kinship must allow for a meaningful personal identity within the relationship， which explains why Jane develops an attraction to Rochester – she states “he is not their I believe he is of mine” (Bronte 219) - and why Jane is reluctant to become M Rochester， a symbol of a self-sacrificing Jane’s finial union symbolizes the ideal harmony
