Describe and illustrate both Mr. Rochester’s character and his actions. Is he a typical Victorian gentleman? Why or why not?

He doesn't show the attributes we would recognize in a Victorian man of his word. He isn't chivalrous, he has a flawed past, he keeps mysteries, and as opposed to being the man who spares the day, he is in certainty spared by Jane. It is not necessarily the case that Rochester has no reclaiming highlights. He is straightforward and frank to the point of brutality. None-the-less, a Victorian respectable man puts his respect to the exclusion of everything else and qualities trustworthiness, all while displaying reliability to those he thinks about companions.
