Question:
In Jane Eyre, during chapter nine, there is an outbreak of typhus that profoundly affects Lowood school. At the time, it was not understood that microorganisms cause disease, and the science of microbiology was in its infancy. As the book states, “That forest-dell, where Lowood lay, was the cradle of fog and fog-bred-pestilence” (p.74, chapter 9). How have the attitudes toward disease changed since the 19th century, and how have they remained the same? Are there any parallels between how Lowood school dealt with typhus in comparison with how some modern long-term care homes are dealing with Covid-19?
