What are the causes, gains, and losses of the conflicts dealt with in this book? There are many cuases in Jane Eyre such as abuse, education, and love. Jane was abused in the beginning of the book by John Reed. There really are not very many gains with this cause, but one. She learned to be strong and stand up for herself which she did, saying, "'Wicked and cruel boy! You are like a murderer- you are like a slave-driver- you are like the Roman emperors!'" after he hit her and threw a book at her head. I think there is more losses than gains dealt in this conflict. Jane was just a girl, and getting in trouble for silly things made her scared. The second cause, education, has more gains than losses. Jane received an education and later on, became a governess, so that is good, but a loss would be that sometimes her boss, Mr. Rochester would not let her mingle with other since it was a lower class job. The final cause is love. The gain would be that she fell in love with a man who loved her for her and they got married, but the loss would be that before they got married, Jane had a big trust issue and left him for a long time.
