More About the Author
Charlotte Bronte was born at Thornton, Yorkshire, on April 21, 1816. Her father, Patrick Bronte, became curate for life of the moorland parish of Haworth, Yorkshire, in 1820, and her mother, Maria Bronte, died the following year, leaving behind five daughters and a son who were cared for in the parsonage by their aunt, Elizabeth Branwell. The eldest daughters, Maria and Elizabeth, died in 1825 from tuberculosis contracted at the religious boarding school to which they (along with Charlotte and her younger sister Emily) had been sent. (All the Bronte children ultimately suffered from lung disease.)
Raised at home thereafter, Charlotte, Emily, their youngest sister, Anne, and brother, Branwell, lived in a fantasy world of their own making, drawing on their voracious reading of Byron, Scott, Shakespeare, The Arabian Nights, and gothic fiction, and writing elaborate poetic and dramatic cycles involving the histories of imaginary countries. Charlotte's early writings revolved around the kingdom of Angria, about which she wrote melodramatic tales of passion and revenge. She spent a year studying at Miss Wooler's school in Roe Head (later relocated to Dewsbury Moor), and went back there to teach from 1835 to 1838; subsequently she worked as a governess.
With Emily, Charlotte traveled in 1842 to study languages at a boarding school in Brussels; her close emotional attachment to her instructor, M. Heger, a married man, would later figure in her fiction. Charlotte and Emily went home after a year because of their aunt's death; Charlotte subsequently returned to Brussels for a year of teaching, 1843 to 1844. A joint collection of poems by Charlotte, Emily, and Anne—published pseudonymously as Poems by Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell—appeared in 1846. The three sisters had in the meantime each written a novel, of which Emily's Wuthering Heights and Anne's Agnes Grey were accepted in 1847 for publication the following year. Charlotte's first novel, The Professor, based on her experiences in Brussels, was rejected by a series of publishers (it finally appeared posthumously in 1857).
Jane Eyre was published under Charlotte's pseudonym, Currer Bell, in 1847 and achieved commercial and critical success; it had gone through four editions by the time of Charlotte's death. Jane Eyre won high praises; William Makepeace Thackeray (who later became a friend) declared himself 'exceedingly moved and pleased,' and George Henry Lewes applauded its 'deep significant reality'; it was also criticized by some for the rebelliousness of its heroine and for what the Quarterly Review called 'coarseness of language and laxity of tone.'
During this period the Brontes underwent repeated tragedies. Branwell, despite his early promise, had been ravaged by the effects of drink and drugs, and when he found work as a tutor in the same household where Anne was a governess, his involvement with his employer's wife led to his dismissal; he died in September of 1848, followed three months later by Emily and the following year by Anne. Charlotte, the sole survivor, published two more novels, Shirley (1849), a novel of Yorkshire during the Napoleonic period, and Villette (1853), a further fictional exploration of her Brussels experiences. In 1850 she met the novelist Elizabeth Gaskell, with whom she formed a close friendship; Gaskell later wrote the classic biography of her friend, The Life of Charlotte Bronte (1857). Charlotte married her father's curate, Arthur Bell Nicholls, in 1854, and died on March 31, 1855.

初次读简爱是中学时代的缩略本,中英对照,也好顺便练一下英文嘛。时隔十多年细细读原本,发现开始的情节还记得很清楚,到罗切斯特先生已婚事实发现后,几乎全忘了。 在很多人的印象里,简是坚强独立女性的代表,但时至今日的我读来却发现,她不过是一个骨子里自卑而至拼命自...
評分回家买了一些新书,但是冬天里肃穆冰冷的小城,永不停息的暖阳,肆虐的流感,温暖的床和曾经徘徊的书架,一切都没有变过。记忆虽在迁徙,可年华依旧如水。梦中我依旧读着那些挚爱的旧书,这可能就是我梦游的根源。 近两日复读了《简爱》 总觉得这是一个冬天的故事,在素...
評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...
評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...
評分名著之所以成为名著,首先它需要满足于大众读者的原始期待,在合该起承转合的关口描绘地漂亮舒服,如果再能够在意料之外的地方添加上反“经典”的非庄重,就像《百年孤独》中诸多限制级cult片演示,将这种隆重的“权威性”拉下马来让读者先一步获得一种阅读的饱腹感,当然会更...
