About the author
Charlotte Brontë (1816–1855) was an English novelist and poet, now most renowned for her novel ‘Jane Eyre’, which has become a classic of English literature. Born in Thornton, West Yorkshire, Charlotte was the third of the six Brontë children and the elder sister of fellow authors Emily and Anne Brontë. Home-educated in a rural parsonage, Charlotte and her siblings created intricate worlds such as Angria, which featured in her juvenilia works, ‘Tales of Angria’ and ‘Angria and the Angrians’. These early writings offer a glimpse into the formative creative exercises Brontë engaged in, which laid the groundwork for her mature literary style characterized by psychological depth, a strong sense of place, and a critical examination of societal norms, particularly concerning women’s independence and integrity. Brontë’s narrative voice is known for its directness and moral firmness, attributes that contributed to the prevailing realism that marked her work as innovative for the period. Her literary contributions extend beyond ‘Jane Eyre’ to other notable works such as ‘Shirley’ and ‘Villette’, constantly reflecting her sharp intellect and the subtle rebellious spirit with which she challenged the status quo of her time. After years of enduring hardship, marked by the loss of her siblings and her own health struggles, Charlotte Brontë died in 1855, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire scholars and readers worldwide.
