One word to describe the relationship between Jane Eyre and Helen Burns is genuine. ... In Charlotte Bronte’s Jane Eyre, two female characters that exemplify this friendship are Jane Eyre and Helen Burns. ...
While at the Lowood School Jane meets a girl named Helen. Helen is Jane’s first and best friend at the Lowood School. ... Helen is the complete opposite of Jane. The schools nastiest teacher, Miss Scatcherd always picks on Helen because shes clumsy and a little dreamy. ... Scatcherds persecutions, Helen is seen as martyr. Helen is also seen as a Christ figure. ... ” Helen does not assert herself, however this is part of her beliefs. Helen has faith that justice will be served to the Lowood School through God’s judgment; “God will reward the good and punish the evil.” Helen always tries to convince Jane that she needs to take control of her anger and tries to teach Jane patience, tolerance, and rationality. Due to the poor health conditions at the school, Helen, as well as many other girls, died. Bronte seems to have Helen die like a true martyr.
