Analyzing and Interpreting Literature / Unit 18   AIL 1735 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Brontë and the First Person

Captions available

The idea

Unit ten worked Jane Eyre's opening for its retrospective first-person narrator and its double time-frame. The Victorian novel used that voice heavily, and the exam's attribution questions live in it as much as in free indirect discourse.

In practice

Retrospective first person, heavily used.

Where people slip

Unit ten built the apparatus.
