22. Charlotte Bronte: A Brief Biography charlotte Brontë A Brief Biography. David Cody, Assistant Professor ofEnglish, Hartwick College. In 1838, charlotte left Roe Head School. http://www.victorianweb.org/authors/bronte/cbronte/brontbio.html

David Cody , Assistant Professor of English, Hartwick College In 1831 Charlotte became a pupil at the school at Roe Head, but she left school the following year to teach her sisters at home. She returned returns to Roe Head School in 1835 as a governess: for a time her sister Emily attended the same school as a pupil, but became homesick and returned to Haworth. Ann took her place from 1836 to 1837. In 1838, Charlotte left Roe Head School. In 1839 she accepted a position as governess in the Sidgewick family, but left after three months and returned to Haworth. In 1841 she became governess in the White family, but left, once again, after nine months. Upon her return to Haworth the three sisters, led by Charlotte, decided to open their own school after the necessary preparations had been completed. In 1842 Charlotte and Emily went to Brussels to complete their studies. After a trip home to Haworth, Charlotte returned alone to Brussels, where she remained until 1844. Upon her return home the sisters embarked upon their project for founding a school, which proved to be an abject failure: their advertisements did not elicit a single response from the public. The following year Charlotte discovered Emily's poems, and decided to publish a selection of the poems of all three sisters: 1846 brought the publication of their Poems, written under the pseudonyms of Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell. Charlotte also completed

It sank, and I am wrapt in utter gloom; How far is night advanced, and when will day Retinge the dusk and livid air with bloom, And fill this void with warm, creative ray? Would I could sleep again till, clear and red, Morning shall on the mountain-tops be spread! I'd call my women, but to break their sleep, Because my own is broken, were unjust; They've wrought all day, and well-earn'd slumbers steep Their labours in forgetfulness, I trust; Let me my feverish watch with patience bear, Thankful that none with me its sufferings share. Yet, oh, for light! one ray would tranquillize My nerves, my pulses, more than effort can;

YOUR AD HERE You are HERE >> Language Arts : Literature : Grade 9 - 10 Authors of Lasting Fame By Elaine Ernst Schneider April 3, 2001 AMAZON PRODUCTS So Big by Edna Ferber Nathaniel Hawthorne Nathaniel Hawthorne was born in Salem, Massachusetts. The Puritan overtones of his novel Scarlet Letter are no accident, as Hawthorne was descended from Puritan ancestors. When Nathaniel’s father, a ship captain, died on a voyage, Nathaniel’s mother moved the family to Maine where her brothers lived. Hawthorne attended Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Maine, where he was a classmate of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. After graduation, Hawthorne returned to Salem with hopes of becoming a writer. His first writing attempts were short stories. Although these stories met with some popularity, they were not financially successful. Hawthorne took a job in a customs house to pay his living expenses. A collection of Hawthorne’s short stories was published in 1837 under the name of Twice-told Tales. This was followed by Mosses from an Old Manse. But it was not until 1850 that Hawthorne gained recognition as a noteworthy author and a master of allegorical tales. With The Scarlet Letter, Hawthorne’s genius for symbolism and his Puritan heritage proved to be a winning combination. While The Scarlet Letter received tremendous acceptance, Hawthorne feared that it was a bit dismal and vowed to write a happier novel for his next work. In 1851, Hawthorne’s The House of the Seven Gables was published. Gable’s plot celebrated the power of love over a family curse. The Scarlet Letter and The House of the Seven Gables were Hawthorne’s most famous works.

Charlotte Bronte Fiction Jane Eyre Shirley The Professor Villette Poetry On The Death Of Anne Bronte Charlotte Bronte Search all of Charlotte Bronte Charlotte Bronte (1816-1855) , English writer noted for her novel Jane Eyre (1847), sister of Anne Bronte and Emily Bronte. The three sisters are almost as famous for their short, tragic lives as for their novels. In the past 40 years Charlotte Brontë's reputation has risen rapidly, and feminist criticism has done much to show that she was speaking up for oppressed women of every age. Charlotte was born in Thornton, Yorkshire, in the north of England, the daughter of an Anglican clergyman who moved with his family to Haworth amid the Yorkshire moors in 1820. After their mother and two eldest children died, Charlotte was left with her sisters Emily and Anne and brother Branwell to the care of their father, and their strict, religious aunt, Elisabeth Branwell. The children created imaginary kingdoms, which were built around Branwell's toy soldiers, and which inspired them to write continuing sagas about the fantasylands of Angria and Gondal. Charlotte attended the Clergy Daughter's School at Cowan Bridge in 1824. She returned home next year because of the harsh conditions. In 1831 she went to school at Roe Head, where she later worked as a teacher. However, she fell ill, suffered from melancholia, and gave up this post. Charlotte's attempts to earn her living as a governess were hindered by her disabling shyness, her ignorance of normal children, and her yearning to be with her sisters.

Charlotte was the daughter of an Anglican clergyman who had moved with his family to Haworth amid the Yorkshire moors in 1820. The landscape around the parsonage, the lonely rolling moors and wild wind, influences all the Brontë sisters deeply. "All around the horizon the is this same line of sinuous wave-like hills; the scoops into which they fall only revealing other hills beyond, of similar colour and shape, crowned with wild, bleak moors - grand, from the ideas of solitude and loneliness which they suggest, or oppressive from the feeling which they give of being pent-up by some monotonous and illimitable barrier, according to the mood of mind in which the spectator may be."

Lebensjahr sein und Anne wird ihr 55. erreichen...« Zwei junge Mädchen, 14 und 16 Jahre alt, träumen von der Zukunft und notieren ihre Gedanken in tagebuchähnlichen Briefen. Man schreibt das Jahr 1834, es ist ein trüber Novembertag, nichts Besonderes geschieht. Aber die beiden haben sich angewöhnt, in regelmäßigen Zeitabständen Tagebuch zu führen. An diesem Novembertag ist Emily, die Sechzehnjährige, an der Reihe, und sie erzählt, daß sie und die vierzehnjährige Anne gerade Äpfel geschält haben für ihre ältere Schwester Charlotte, die einen Apfelpudding kochen will. Sie sitzen in der Küche. Es ist schon Mittag. Aber beide Mädchen haben sich noch nicht angezogen und ihre Betten noch nicht gemacht, geschweige denn sich um ihre Musikübungen gekümmert, wie sie eigentlich sollten. Tabby, die Hausangestellte, schimpft, weil sie so trödeln. Emily soll wenigstens Kartoffeln schälen. »O dear, o dear, o dear, mach ich ja gleich!« antwortet Emily. Der Vater verläßt das Haus, um vorm Essen noch einen kleinen Spaziergang zu machen.

Library Charlotte Bronte Dictionary Charlotte Bronte Charlotte Brontë, together with her sisters and fellow writers, Emily and Anne, and her brother Branwell, lived most of her life in an isolated parsonage in Yorkshire, where her father was a minister. From these quiet surroundings the three sisters spun passionate, romantic novels of powerful emotional energy that are still popular today. They began writing under the pen names of Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell, and first published a volume of twenty-one poems in 1846. The work failed, selling only two copies, and afterwards the sisters began working on novels. Charlotte was the only one of the three to become a successful novelist in her own lifetime. She spent some time working as a teacher and a governess, and would later use these experiences in her work. After her first book, THE PROFESSOR, was rejected, so she wrote JANE EYRE, the story of a downtrodden governess who wins the heart of the enigmatic Mr. Rochester, which was published in 1847. She followed up on its success with SHIRLEY (1849), and VILLETTE (1853), the latter of which is a nearly autobiographical account of her experiences of teaching in Belgium. In 1854, Charlotte married Arthur Bell Nicholls, her father’s curate. She soon became pregnant and died of complications in 1855, aged thirty-eight, leaving behind her novels that are still read and enjoyed today. Famous quotations by Charlotte Bronte: Something of vengeance I had tasted for the first time; as aromatic wine it seemed, on swallowing, warm and racy: its after-flavour, metallic and corroding, gave me a sensation as if I had been poisoned.

The Bronte Sisters Researcher: Rachel Sahlman Artist: Dick Strandberg Three writers who influenced the direction of the English novel also happened to be sisters. Charlotte, Emily, and Anne Bronte were all born in Thornton, England in the early 1800s. Their father Patrick was born in Ireland, educated in England, and became an Anglican clergyman. He and his wife had six children. The two oldest daughters, Maria and Elizabeth died before reaching adulthood. Of the remaining children, Charlotte was the eldest, born April 21, 1816; followed by brother Patrick Branwell, born June 26, 1817; then Emily, born July 30, 1818; and Anne, born January 17, 1820. Shortly after Anne's birth, their father accepted a position in Haworth, located within the Yorkshire moors. Mrs. Bronte died soon after reaching Haworth, and the children were cared for by an aunt named Elizabeth Branwell. In 1824, Charlotte and Emily were sent to Clergy Daughters' School at Cowan Bridge in Lancashire, but they returned within a year. The treatment at Cowan Bridge was considered harsh, and Charlotte later modeled Lowood School (Jane Eyre) after it. For the next several years, the Bronte children were taught at home. They invented games and told imaginary stories to each other. Charlotte attended Miss Wooler's school at Roe Head for one year in 1831, then returned home and taught her sisters. Charlotte returned to Roe Head as a teacher in 1835, but after suffering from depression and ill health, she resigned from her position. It was at Roe Head that Charlotte met her lifelong friend Ellen Nussey. Her many letters to Nussey have served as the best documentation of her life.

Charlotte Bronte N ovelista inglesa nacida en 1816, componente de una familia cuyas obras transcendieron la época victoriana para convertirse en clásicas. Sus hermanas Emily (1818-1848), Anne (1820-1849) y su hermano Branwell (1817-1848), nacieron en Yorkshire. Su padre, Patrick Brönte, de origen irlandés, fue nombrado rector de Haworth, un pueblo de los páramos de Yorkshire al que desde entonces quedó ligada la familia. Al morir la madre en 1824, Charlotte y Emily fueron enviadas con sus hermanas mayores, Maria y Elizabeth, al colegio de Clergy Daughters, en Cowan Bridge, donde cayeron enfermas de tuberculosis. En este colegio se inspiró Charlotte Brönte para describir el infame colegio Lowood que aparece en su novela Jane Eyre Poemas por Currer, Ellis y Acton Bell (1846), empleando cada hermana las iniciales de su nombre en los seudónimos. Lo pagaron ellas, pero sólo se vendieron dos ejemplares. Después, cada hermana se embarcó en una novela. La primera que se publicó fue Jane Eyre (1847), de Charlotte, que tuvo un éxito inmediato. Agnes Grey, de Anne, y Cumbres borrascosas, de Emily, aparecieron más adelante aquel mismo año. La especulación sobre la identidad de las autoras se mantuvo hasta que visitaron Londres y se dieron a conocer a sus editores. A su regreso a Haworth encontraron a Branwell a punto de morir. Du hermana Emily murió de tuberculosis en 1848. Anne también, de la misma enfermedad en 1849, un año después de publicar su segunda novela, La dama de Wildfell Hall. Sola con su padre en Haworth, Charlotte reanudó el trabajo con
