" quand il y avait du monde... cela en appren" (Bronte, 169).
Bronte fills her novel with french not only to show that Jane is intelligent, but also to point out Jane's desire to go explore the world she lives in. She has only really been three places in her entire life, her aunts house, the school, and now Rochester's. She is itching at the chance to witness things larger then herself, and to find out exactly who she is.

Nice entry.. it is to the point and clearly hits on the technique and Bronte as crafter -- a good example of an entry that doesn't have to be long to be effective
