Abstract
This research is a study of Bronte’s Jane Eyre viewed from the feminist perspective. The objectives of this research are to identify woman’s oppressions experienced by Jane and to explain her responses to the oppressions from Victorian society illustrated in the novel. Feminism theory, especially socialist feminism, is implemented to answer the objectives of the research. This research is a qualitative study applying content analysis method. The object of this research is a novel entitled Jane Eyre written by Charlotte Bronte. The data collected are words, phrases, clauses, sentences, and paragraphs which are taken from the novel related to woman’s oppression in Victorian era and socialist feminism. The key instrument of this research is the researcher herself employing the socialist feminist theory by Juliet Mitchell. The data analysis was conducted through six steps: organizing and preparing the data, reading through all the data, coding the data, giving a description, interrelating descriptions, and interpreting the meaning of the descriptions. To obtain trustworthiness, the researcher used triangulation technique. There are two results of the research. The first result is the identification of woman’s oppressions, which is classified into two forms: patriarchal oppression and class oppression. Patriarchal oppression is in the form of giving Jane stereotypes, such as considering her as a dependent woman and making her as an object of men, while class oppression is in the form of giving her bad treatments from the upper class. The second result is the explanation of Jane’s responses to the oppressions which are classified into four actions: being an independent woman, breaking the social value that women are only placed in domestic life, refusing to be an object of men, and struggling to survive by showing her resistance.
