Introduction As one of the Charlotte Bronte抯 representative works, Jane Eyre has made a extensive influence on the British at that time. From the perspective of discussing the status of women, Jane Eyre has created a love story between the heroine Jane Eyre and the male protagonist Rochester, thus creating a female image that is not afraid of worldly pressure, independence and active advancement. Therefore, once Jane Eyre was published, it caused widespread concern of the time and future generations. Jane Eyre抯 image of this figure aroused the awakening of thousands of women in the world. Women found equality, freedom and happiness from her. And the courage to resist all the evil forces of the old evil forces. At the same time, it also impacted the concept of women in the male central society. It earlier manifested the awakening of female consciousness and the struggle of women who awakened, and played an important role in the history of literature. I hope that by taking this opportunity to write a thesis and on the basis of previous research results, I will explore the feminist consciousness and resistance spirit embodied in the struggle of the heroine Jane Eyre in pursuit of freedom and equality in the works and the mainstream society at that time. And also hope that the research results of this paper will help us to have a deeper understanding of Western female consciousness, so that it can be better used by Chinese feminists. Literature review S Margaret -燰ictorian Literat.2017. You can continue to thoughtlessly pollute, Ruskin warns his readers, but in so doing you will destroy the earth and end your own existence. Six years earlier, in 1865, Ruskin coined the term 揹is-ease?to denote a clear link between ill-being and environmental detachment. He yoked physical and mental health, elucidating 搄ow literally that word Dis-Ease, the Negation and impossibility of Ease, expressed the entire moral state of our English Industry and its Amusements!?(揙f Kings?Treasuries?282). For Ruskin, nineteenth-century mills and factories, despite promising consumer satisfaction, made comfort impossible by endlessly producing frivolous, disposable goods, and thus waste. This needless consumption, a symptom of industry, produced an ignorance of true needs. Dis-ease, mental and bodily discomfort, resulted from alienation from the ecosystem, the networks of dependence between all species, and that estrangement blinded human beings to their actual role in the environment. While Ruskin focused on urban toxicity, the toxic ideological separation between humans and their environment impacted all spaces, a concern that several Victorian writers raised decades earlier than he did. This article traces the salutary cultural anxiety over improper sanitation and contaminants in two popular mid-nineteenth-century novels that demonstrate the effects of anthropogenic pollution in urban and rural environments, respectively. Published almost exactly one year apart, both Elizabeth Gaskell's Mary Barton (1848) and Charlotte Bronte抯 Jane Eyre (1847) invoke what I call eco-consciousness in their description of urban and rural filth, portrayed as both visible and invisible toxins. Gaskell uncovers urban pollution in plain sight, going beyond smell to expose the causes of toxicity, while Bront?challenges the belief in the country as a safe haven from pollution, going beyond beauty to expose rural toxicity. Characters suffer physical disease and mental dis-ease resulting from a poor understanding of ecological relationships. Reading Jane Eyre alongside Mary Barton accentuates Bronte抯 use of eco-consciousness to expose the hidden dangers of rural pollution that resulted from the very types of urban toxicity that Gaskell identifies. LG Leve Anthropological Q.2007.Rural women's active support for the decade-long Maoist insurrection in Nepal has captured the attention of academics, military strategists, and the development industry. This essay considers two theories that have been proposed to account for this phenomenon. The "failed development" hypothesis suggests that popular discontent with the government is the result of uneven, incomplete, or poorly executed development efforts and recommends more and better aid as the route to peace. In contrast, the "conscientization" model proposes that, at least in some cases, women's politicization may be the unexpected result of successful development programs that aimed to "empower" women by raising their consciousness of gender and class-based oppression. Drawing on the testimonies of women who participated in such programs in Gorkha district梐 Maoist stronghold where women are reported to have been especially active桰 argue that both of these explanations reflect assumptions about social subjectivity that are critically out of synch with the realities of rural Nepal. Gorkhali women's support for the rebels embodies a powerful critique of neoliberal democracy and the Nepal state, but one that is based on morally-grounded ideas about social personhood in which self-realization is bound up in mutual obligation and entails personal sacrifice梟ot the culturally-disembedded valorizations of autonomy, agency, and choice that most models presume. Theorists of subaltern political consciousness?and of the relations between development and violence梞ust engage with the gendered moral economies of the people they aim to empower if they ultimately hope to promote sustainable peace. T Gayle -燱omen Politics1993.燭he socioeconomic factors that undergirded black women's political consciousness during the antebellum era were northern industrialization, social reform activity, and the emergence of black nationalism in African-American communities. As these factors converged, they stimulated black women's economic activity which, in turn, served as a springboard to black women's political consciousness and resistance. First as community activists and then as abolitionists in both the national and international spheres, black women organized and protested against slavery, racism, sexism, and its attendant ills. This study explores the material realities that under-pinned black women's political development as well as the transformative stages of their political consciousness and activity. B Sutton.2010. Born and raised in Argentina and still maintaining significant ties to the area, Barbara Sutton examines the complex, and often hidden, bodily worlds of diverse women in that country during a period of profound social upheaval. Based primarily on women's experiential narratives and set against the backdrop of a severe economic crisis and intensified social movement activism post-2001. Bodies in Crisisilluminates how multiple forms of injustice converge in and are contested through women's bodies. Sutton reveals the bodily scars of neoliberal globalization; women's negotiation of cultural norms of femininity and beauty; experiences with clandestine, illegal, and unsafe abortions; exposure to and resistance against interpersonal and structural violence; and the role of bodies as tools and vehicles of political action. Through the lens of women's body consciousness in a Global South country, and drawing on multifaceted stories and a politically embedded approach, Bodies in Crisissuggests that social policy, economic systems, cultural ideologies, and political resistance are ultimately fleshly matters. D Western.?013. In this chapter, I explore feminist group work practice. In doing so I consider two powerful concepts that are typically incorporated into feminist group work practice: consciousness-raising and resistance. I examine the role that consciousness-raising and resistance can play in guiding the development of journaling activities and in guiding the facilitation of women抯 journaling groups. Why are these concepts important to women抯 journaling about depression? Why are they important in women抯 understandings about their experiences of violence and depression? In order to answer these questions, I present the relevant theory and literature that looks at the concepts of consciousness-raising and resistance, the ways they can be employed as methods, as activities themselves, and how they can underpin discussions with women about their rights. Consciousness-raising and resistance methods and activities fit neatly into critical feminist intersectional theories of gender-based violence against women and depression in women, particularly when we think about ways to respond to and prevent violence and depression. Lu Cun.2014. Charlotte Bronte is a remarkable women writer in the 19th-century English literature. Jane Eyre received comprehensive attention. This thesis analyzes main characters from three aspects, Jane Eyre's female consciousness, pursuit of equality, freedom and presents the limitation in Jane Eyre. It also examines the nature of Charlotte Bronte's pioneering female consciousness and demonstrates its positive development. Conclusion As we all known, the era in which Charlotte Bronte lived was an era of patriarchal supremacy. Literary creation was basically occupied by men at the beginning, and the role and image of women were always in a weak position, while Charlotte Bronte It is very worthy of recognition to be able to write such a controversial novel at this time to rebel against the so-called mainstream society in which patriarchy is supreme. As the main work of Charlotte Bronte's spirit of resistance, Jane Eyre's progressive significance can be said to be obvious, and it also kicked off the feminist movement. To this day, all the thoughts and spirits embodied in this work are still worth to discussing. It is not only because of the social status and value of the work itself, but also because it has created this personality, dare to love and hate, and the independent and strong female image is the greatest female image in the history of literature. One, and motivated to inspire women in the society at that time to pursue their own happiness, has become a model for thousands of women in the market.
