I asked this in class, but would like more than one answer. What do you think the major purpose of Jane's visions are? I am curious to see what people have to say.
My personal opinion is that they are a form of foreshadowing. Like color and eyes, Jane's visions continue to happen. I think they are yet another motif that shows the tones of the book. If color shows mood, and eyes show the personality of each characters, the visions could either be a show of the future or a show of Jane's emotions.
Ya, there are a ton of motifs in this book and also a bunch of things that forshadow the rest of the book. Im still guessing that every experience that Jane has relates to the author's life or back to Jane's lost family. Dan, check out things like the song on pages 18/19 and see if that is helpful. Also, what do you mean by visions, all of her observations of people or what?
