Charlotte Brontë ( 21 April 1816 – 31 March 1855) was an English novelist and poet, the eldest of the three Brontë sisters who survived into adulthood and whose novels have become classics of English literature.
She enlisted in school at Roe Head in January 1831, aged 14 years. She left the year after to teach her sisters, Emily and Anne, at home, returning in 1835 as a governess. In 1839 she undertook the role as governess for the Sidgwick family, but left after a few months to return to Haworth where the sisters opened a school, but failed to attract any students. Instead they turned to writing and they each first published in 1846 under the pseudonyms of Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell. Her first novel The Professor was rejected by publishers, her second novel Jane Eyre was published in 1847, although it was not initially well received; one critic described it as a "pre-eminently an anti-Christian composition". The sisters admitted to their Bell pseudonyms in 1848, and by the following year were celebrated in London literary circles.
Brontë experienced the early deaths of all her siblings. She became pregnant shortly after her marriage in June 1854 but died on 31 March 1855 of tuberculosis or possibly typhus.
Jane Eyre (originally published as Jane Eyre: An Autobiography) is a novel by English writer Charlotte Brontë, published under the pen name "Currer Bell", on 16 October 1847, by Smith, Elder & Co. of London, England. The first American edition was published the following year by Harper & Brothers of New York.[citation needed]
Primarily a bildungsroman, Jane Eyre follows the experiences of its eponymous heroine, including her growth to adulthood and her love for Mr. Rochester, the Byronic master of Thornfield Hall. The focus is on the gradual unfolding of Jane's moral and spiritual sensibility, and Jane Eyre revolutionised the art of fiction in the way that all the events are coloured by a heightened intensity that was previously the domain of poetry. Charlotte Brontë has been called the 'first historian of the private consciousness' and the literary ancestor of writers like Proust and Joyce. The novel contains elements of social criticism, with a strong sense of Christian morality at its core, and is considered by many to be ahead of its time because of Jane's individualistic character and how the novel approaches the topics of class, sexuality, religion, and feminism.
身心俱乏,消极避世,窝在床上读治愈系之《简爱》。读了二百来页,猛然发现,简爱绝对是维多利亚早期的女吊丝(无贬义,亲切认同),她的故事堪称女吊丝的逆袭。除了相貌平平、出身寒微、不惹人注目外,简爱还有女屌丝的两个特质:重口味和强大的生命力。 首先,简爱小姐在性...
评分 评分昨天在豆瓣偶然瞥见一本名为《阁楼上的疯女人》的新书,副标题是“女性作家与19世纪文学想象”,那么这个“疯女人”显然是指《简·爱》中的伯莎·梅森。这偏巧是我极感兴趣的一个女性形象,曾经还满怀期待地买过一本以她为主角的小说《藻海无边》,尽管事实证明此书似乎不合我...
评分 评分推荐给所有女性的必读书——《简爱》 12月3日,我观看了国家大剧院版本的话剧《简爱》。从剧院中走出,我的心久久不能平静,想着总该是要写些什么东西的。 首先是演出。作为国家顶尖的话剧演出团体,本剧的演员,布景,灯光,舞美的无可挑剔。尤其是女主角袁泉,完全演绎出了简...
爱情
评分爱情
评分光有爱情是不够的,还要有原则有道德,爱情再浓烈不能高于某些律法:神圣的婚姻一旦缔结再不人道也是神圣不可侵犯的,也不能委屈自己牺牲尊严地爱一个人;但为了某一理想走到一起而没有爱情的婚姻是令人窒息的,等同于殉道。这是Bronte的爱情宣言。笔触非常细腻,老少恋竟然还有不少充满小把戏的调侃,最有意思最动人的当然是他们相互试探彼此靠近的过程。炙热的爱情,毫不掩饰的内心袒露在读者面前,非常感人。
评分11.12.31 手机看了很久,英文很好,以前读的那本中文译本也好。没有特别喜欢这书,到读起来真心舒服。
评分很闷很琼瑶
