Currer Bell makes several proud and strong statements in the paragraph. It calls out many of her critics and appears to direct responses to many of their disagreements with the novel Jane Eyre. She makes her clearest point in saying "in whose eyes whatever is unusual is wrong". Her critics who found the out of the ordinary, feminist, and somewhat radical for the time plot line's within the novel to be disgraceful and and upsetting. What Currer Bell points out to those critics in the before mentioned quote is that, yes, the subject matter in the book may be different and new, but that does not make it wrong or anything to fear. They are subjects that should be discussed, even if they appear to be radical. It is wrong to ignore them and to dismiss them as subjects that should not be spoken of because they are unusual.
