Explanation:

Charlotte Bronte's gothic romantic novel "Jane Eyre" tells the story of the title character Jane who was orphaned and had to endure hardships. But in the end, through everything, she also got true love and has a happy ending.

1. Helen Burns is the friend of Jane during their days in school at Lowood. Helen personifies the image of patience and anything that represents humility. Helen never complains nor resist any form of injustice. Rather she silently endured whatever was meted to her, and she gladly accepts all. Her basic philosophy seems to be to endure injustice with patience.

2. Charlotte Bronte, through Jane, seems to reflect the philosophical assumption that the abusive power of those "superior" is wrong. this can be seen in the cases of when John tried to 'force' marry Jane. Also, the schoolmaster Mr. Brocklehurst, her aunt Mrs. Reed all show this 'power' over her and the people they deemed to be unfit for the society and 'lower' than them.
