Shirley - Charlotte Bronte - Set in the industrializing England of the Napoleonic wars and Luddite revolts of 1811-12, Shirley (1849) is the story of two contrasting heroines. One is the shy Caroline Helstone, who is trapped in the oppressive atmosphere of a Yorkshire rectory and whose bare life symbolizes the plight of single women in the nineteenth century. The other is the vivacious Shirley Keeldar, who inherits a local estate and whose wealth liberates her from convention.

The Professoris Charlotte Brontes first novel, even though it was only published posthumously. The novels protagonist and first-person narrator is the orphan William Crimsworth, a young educated man who rejects the career of a clergyman proposed by his adoptive uncle. He first decides to work as a clerk for his wealthy brother who owns a mill in the north of the country. However, his brothers jealousy of his superior education and intelligence eventually pushes him to quit the job and travel to Brussels where he is hired as a professor of English at a girls school. In Brussels, he falls in love with a younger colleague, Frances Henri, yet he has to endure the wickedness of the Catholic headmistress, Mr. Reuter. Coveting their nascent love, the latter ends up dismissing Frances from her school and hiding her whereabouts from William. The professor leaves the establishment and luckily comes across her beloved in a graveyard. Thanks to a new job with a very high wage, the couple are eventually allowed to open their own school, marry and have a child. The narrative closes as they succeed in making a little fortune and decide to settle in the English countryside.

Jane Eyre (originally published as Jane Eyre: An Autobiography) is a novel by English writer Charlotte Bronte, published under the pen name "Currer Bell", on 16 October 1847, by Smith, Elder & Co. of London. The first American edition was published the following year by Harper & Brothers of New York. Jane Eyre is a Bildungsroman which follows the experiences of its eponymous heroine, including her growth to adulthood and her love for Mr. Rochester, the brooding master of Thornfield Hall. The novel revolutionised prose fiction by being the first to focus on its protagonists moral and spiritual development through an intimate first-person narrative, where actions and events are coloured by a psychological intensity. Charlotte Bronte has been called the "first historian of the private consciousness", and the literary ancestor of writers like Proust and Joyce. The book contains elements of social criticism with a strong sense of Christian morality at its core, and it is considered by many to be ahead of its time because of Janes individualistic character and how the novel approaches the topics of class, sexuality, religion, and feminism. It, along with Jane Austens Pride and Prejudice, is one of the most famous romance novels of all time. My Website: LYFREEDOM.COM

Jane Eyre (originally published as Jane Eyre: An Autobiography) is a novel by English writer Charlotte Bronte. It was published on 16 October 1847 by Smith, Elder & Co. of London, England, under the pen name "Currer Bell." The first American edition was published the following year by Harper & Brothers of New York.Primarily of the bildungsroman genre, Jane Eyre follows the emotions and experiences of its title character, including her growth to adulthood, and her love for Mr. Rochester, the byronic master of fictitious Thornfield Hall. In its internalisation of the actionthe focus is on the gradual unfolding of Janes moral and spiritual sensibility, and all the events are coloured by a heightened intensity that was previously the domain of poetryJane Eyre revolutionised the art of fiction. Charlotte Bronte has been called the first historian of the private consciousness and the literary ancestor of writers like Joyce and Proust. The novel contains elements of social criticism, with a strong sense of morality at its core, but is nonetheless a novel many consider ahead of its time given the individualistic character of Jane and the novels exploration ofclassism, sexuality, religion, and proto-feminism.

De Jane Eyre (1847), ciertamente una de las novelas más famosas de estos dos últimos siglos, solemos conservar la imagen ultrarromántica de una azarosa historia de amor entre una institutriz pobre y su rico e imponente patron, todo en el marco truculento y misterioso de una fantasmagoria gotica. Y olvidamos que, antes y despues de la relacion central con el abismal, sardonico y volcanico señor Rochester, Jane Eyre tiene otras relaciones, otras historias: episodios escalofriantes de una infancia tan maltratada como rebelde, años de enfermedad y arduo aprendizaje en un tetrico internado, estaciones de penuria y renuncia en la mas absoluta desolacion fisica y moral, inesperados golpes de fortuna, e incluso remansos de paz familiar y nuevas aunque engañosas- proposiciones de matrimonio. Olvidamos, en fin, que la novela es todo un libro de la vida, una confesion certera y severisima rotundamente critica- de un completo itinerario espiritual, y una exhaustiva ilustracion de la lucha entre conciencia y sentimiento, entre principios y deseos, entre legitimidad y caracter, de una heroina que es la "llama cautiva" entre los extremos que forman su naturaleza.Carmen Martin Gaite ha rescatado el vigor, la riqueza y la naturalidad expresiva de un texto un tanto desvirtuado por la popularidad de sus multiples versiones. Gracias a su traduccion, hecha ex profeso para esta edicion, quien creyera conocer esta novela, al leerla de nuevo, mas que recordarla, la descubrira.Charlotte Bronte nacio en 1816 en Thornton (Yorkshire), tercera hija de Patrick Bronte y Maria Branwell. En 1820 el padre fue nombrado vicario perpetuo de la pequeña aldea de Haworth, en los paramos de Yorkshire, y alli pasaria Charlotte casi toda su vida. Huerfanos de madre a muy corta edad, los cinco hermanos Bronte fueron educados por una tia. En 1824, Charlotte, junto con sus hermanas Emily, Elizabeth y Maria, acudio a una escuela para hijas de clerigos. Elizabeth y Maria murieron ese mismo año, y Charlotte siempre lo atribuyo a las malas condiciones del internado. Es-tudiaria posteriormente un año en una escuela privada, donde ejercio como maestra; fue luego institutriz, y maestra de nuevo en un pensionado de Bruselas, donde en 1842 estuvo interna con Emily. De vuelta a Haworth, en 1846 consiguio publicar un volumen de Poesias con sus hermanas Emily y Anne, con el pseudonimo, respectivamente, de Currer, Ellis y Acton Bell. Su primera novela, El profesor, no encontro editor, y no seria publicada hasta 1857. Pero, como Currer Bell, publico con exito Jane Eyre (1847). En 1848, mientras morian a su alrededor Emily y Anne y su hermano Branwell, escribio Shirley (Alba clasica, nº XXX), que se publicaria al año siguiente. Su ultima novela fue Villette (1853). Charlotte se caso con el reverendo A. B. Nicholls un año antes de morir en 1855.

Have you read it? exclaimed George Eliot when Charlotte Brontes final novel appeared in 1853. "It is a still more wonderful book than "Jane Eyre". There is something almost preternatural in its power."Arguably Brontes most refined and deeply felt work, Villette draws on her profound loneliness following the deaths of her three siblings. Lucy Snowe, the narrator of Villette,flees from an unhappy past in England to begin a new life as a teacher at a French boarding school in the great cosmopolitan capital of Villette. Soon Lucys struggle for independence is overshadowed by both her friendship with a worldly English doctor and her feelings for an autocratic schoolmaster. Brontes strikingly modern heroine must decide if there is any man in her society with whom she can live and still be free.
