		Katherine is attractive to him because of her amorousness, but it is her very sensuality that he chooses to attack and use as a weapon against her, accusing her both of infidelity and of an unnatural affection for her child.
		Katherine is as tragic a figure as the novel can offer–totally sane, completely innocent of wrongdoing, and the victim of first her husband's, then her son's madness.

	Katherine Jones Bellamann, 1877-1956, Novelist and Poet
		Katherine Jones Bellamann, novelist and poet, was born on 7 October 1877 in Carthage, Mississippi, to Ephriam and Emma Williams Jones.
		The combined papers and manuscripts of Henry and Katherine Bellamann, which are housed in the University of Mississippi's Department of Archives and Special Collections, testify to the fact that the work of the two writers is closely entwined: they often shared notebooks and sometimes even single pages.
		She may never be considered a great American writer, or even a great regional one, but Katherine Bellamann's few contributions, especially her novels, are worthy pieces of art, and Mississippi may well be proud of this woman whose life exemplifies a devotion to literature and the arts.

		Overall, Adam is thus "Eliots primary illustration of the way in which a man can develop, according to her standards, a proper orientation; in which he becomes moral instead of moralistic and evolves a gentleness and a humility which are essentially, rather than dogmatically christian".
		I am however still troubled by the narration and ending of the novel, as I am unconvinced that Jane ever truly achieves her goal of happiness and search for unconditional love.
		Throughout the novel, Charlotte Bronte appears to be sensitive to the issues and structure of Jane's journey, however it is difficult to identify the kind of narrative focus Bronte adopts due to the lack of unified structure of the novel.
