feudalism, but, some aristocracy managed to integrate themselves into the bourgeois and .
still be a part of the rich and powerful class. In Jane Eyre, we can see a division between .
the bourgeois and the new bourgeois , the merchant capitalists, and the aristocracy, with .
old inherited money. We learn that Rochester has come to wealth, partly through .
merchant capitalism and partly through inherited wealth and we can understand that .
through such capitalist families the new bourgeois rose from strength to strength. They .
were constantly discovering new markets, promoting the capitalist ideas of freedom and .
upholding the bourgeois society, yet, some of their money may have come from the .
aristocracies of old. Thus, these families make it seem natural that the bourgeoisie should .
be the determining Class. The bourgeois dominance at the time of Jane Eyre was so .
strong that it soon became a naturalised notion that the bourgeois were rightfully the .
upper class of the society. Almost everyone in the society supported this ideal, and .
therefore this made the bourgeoisie even stronger and more secure in their position. Thus, .
we can see that this was a hegemonic society, with all classes supporting the rise of the .
bourgeoisie. This is a fact that Jane Eyre disguises. However, this hegemony is not .
disguised purposely. It is not obvious to the reader that there is a hegemony because .
Charlotte Bronte would have probably been a part of the hegemonic society that .
supported the bourgeoisie.
Jane Eyre is one character that demonstrates this ideal of bourgeois dominance. Jane has .
an ambiguous position in the society because she is an orphan, believed to be of poor .
parentage. However, she would probably be considered part of the petty bourgeois class, .
because of her upbringing at the Reeds' and also her schooling. Although Jane has to .
work as a governess, for money and lodgings, she still considers herself to be a part of .
