Answer:

Jane Eyre and Charlotte Brontë are alike in that they are trying to gain recognition in a male-dominated society.

Explanation:

The author Charlotte Brontë provides a critique of Victorian England and the social hierarchies that structured society at the time. In Jane Eyre, Brontë used the ambiguity in the position of the governess to show how class standing was a source of tension throughout the book. Jane had the manners and educated background and was sophisticated as Victorian governesses were expected to be because they taught etiquette and academics to the children of elites. However, they were employees and lacked the wealth and were dependent on the families they worked for, much like servants. Women were similarly dependent and discouraged from pursuing the means to be self-sufficient. Jane Eyre's journey allows her to build up skills and to establish herself so she can marry Rochester as an equal. The author writes that "but women feel just as men feel; they need exercise for their faculties, and a field for their efforts as much as their brothers do," (p 127) an idea that was radical for her time.
