A reference to the following questions is made: If and how were love and marriage connected with each other? What were the reasons for marriage in Victorian times? How did a marriage look like? Furthermore, the three marriage plots in Jane Eyre are described: the marriage of Rochester and Jane, the "hidden" marriage of Rochester and Bertha und the unfulfilled marriage of St. John and Jane. The paper focusses on how they differ from each other and to what extent they correspond to marriage in the Victorian era as described in the first part.
