Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë (Book Analysis) - Bright Summaries
British novelist
Born in Thornton (England) in 1816
Died in Haworth in 1855
Notable works:
Jane Eyre (1847), novel
Shirley (1849), novel
The Professor (1857, posthumous), novel
Born in 1816, Charlotte Brontë is considered to be one of the greatest English writers of the 19th century. She was born into a modest family from Yorkshire. After her mother’s death in 1821, she was raised by her father, an educated pastor, with her brother and four sisters. In 1846, she and her sisters began to publish poems under male pseudonyms. Anne and Emily then published Agnes Grey and Wuthering Heights respectively, but Charlotte’s first novel, The Professor, was rejected. In 1847 Jane Eyre was published and achieved great success, and was soon followed by Shirley (1849) and Villette (1853). The last survivor of the Brontë family, she died in 1855 shortly after her marriage.
