Introduction to form, structure and language in Jane Eyre
When analysing and responding to a text, you must consider how a writer uses form, structure and language - thinking about the effects they have on the reader.
To put this simply, you must analyse:
Form - is the name of the text type that the writer uses. For example, you can have short stories, plays, scripts, sonnets, novels etc. All of these are different text types that a writer can use. The form of a text is important because it tells you about the writer's intentions, characters or key themes. In this case, we are looking at the novel form and how Bront毛 uses the first person.
Structure - is how the plot is ordered and put together for the reader. You can think of plot at a text level but also at a sentence level. In this case, we are looking at the order of events in Bront毛's novel.
Language - the words a writer uses and the impact they have. What words does Bront毛 use? Why? How does she use them? What effect does this have? Does she employ any language devices in her writing? For example: metaphor, imagery, alliteration, pathetic fallacy etc.
