The Soviet-British Relations at the Turn of 1917/1918: Key Issues and Untapped Opportunities by E. Yu. Sergeev

“…The representation of the four elements in Shirley is thus quite different from the one David Lodge analysed in Jane Eyre (« Fire and Eyre : Charlotte Brontë’s War of Earthly Elements »). The passionate and purifying fire which characterizes Jane Eyre becomes endowed with a social dimension : it reduces to ashes many factories, such as the one Sykes owns for instance (« his dressing-shop was set on fire and burnt to the ground ») ; fire is associated to revolt, hatred but also death since gunshots can be heard several times. …”
