Jane Eyre - Charlotte Bronte
Mr Brocklehurst, Helen Burns and St. John Rivers
Mr Brocklehurst represents
the dangers and hypocrisy of
the 19th century church.
Tries to adopt evangelism but actually his treatment to
the curly-haired children is very un-Christian.
With wealthy home life comes
at the expense of his students.
Helen Burn's mode of Christianity
is meek and forbearing.
'I believe; I have faith: I am going to
God'.
St. John's Christianity is about ambition, glory
and extreme self-importance.
He wants he to sacrifice her own
needs for moral duty.
Jane struggles to find
the right balance
between moral duty and
earthly pleasure.
In Chapter 26, when her wedding is interrupted she
prays to God for solace. Then in Chapter 28, when alone
on the moors, she puts her survival in the hands of
good.
26; 'Be far not from me, trouble is near; there is none to help'
-psalms.
Religion for Jane helps her curb immoderate passions
and also her to have complete self-knowledge and
faith in God.
Dracula- Baum Stoker
The Promise of Christian Salvation
The supernatural evil is combated by icons of the
Christian faith; the crucifix is used to scare away Dracula's
evil spirit.
'We are Ministers of God's own wish'
Dracula stands as a satanic figure.
In Lucy's second death she is transformed
into a vision of 'unequalled sweetness and
purity'.
Crucifixes, communion wafers and crosses.
