Bøger af Charlotte Brontë

Charlotte, Emily, and Anne Brontë wrote during the 19th century, a time when women's contributions to literature were often overlooked or dismissed. Initially, they published their works under pseudonyms (Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell) to navigate the societal prejudices against female authors. Their poetry and novels explored complex emotions, challenged social norms, and offered profound insights into human nature.As poets, the Brontë sisters exhibited a shared fascination with nature, especially the wild and desolate landscapes of their native Yorkshire. Their works often incorporated vivid descriptions of nature as a backdrop for exploring themes of love, loss, identity, and the human psyche. The sisters'poetry is marked by their individual voices, with Emily's evocative and passionate expressions, Charlotte's introspection and emotional depth, and Anne's moral and reflective tone.Despite their relatively short lives, the Brontë sisters left an enduring legacy through their writings. Their poetry and novels continue to captivate readers worldwide, and their contributions to literature have been recognized as remarkable examples of literary talent and feminist thought during their time and beyond.

El otro día, al revisar mis papeles, hallé en mi mesa la siguiente copia de una carta que envié, un año ha, a un viejo conocido del colegio.Querido Charles:Creo que cuando tú y yo estuvimos juntos en Eton no éramos lo que podría llamarse personajes populares; tú eras un ser sarcástico, observador, perspicaz y frío; no intentaré trazar mi propio retrato, pero no recuerdo que fuera especialmente atractivo, ¿y tú? Desconozco qué magnetismo animal nos unió; desde luego, yo jamás albergué por ti sentimiento alguno que se pareciera al de Pilades y Orestes, y tengo razones para creer que, por tu parte, estabas igualmente lejos de cualquier sentimiento romántico. No obstante, fuera de las horas lectivas, estábamos siempre juntos, charlando y paseando; cuando el tema de conversación eran nuestros compañeros o nuestros maestros, nos comprendíamos mutuamente, y cuando yo recurría a alguna expresión de afecto, a un aprecio vago por algo excelente o hermoso, tanto si era de naturaleza animada como inanimada, tu sardónica frialdad no me impresionaba; entonces, como ahora, me sentía superior a tal freno. Ha pasado mucho tiempo desde que te escribí y más aún desde que nos vimos; el otro día, hojeando casualmente un periódico de tu condado, mis ojos fueron a dar con tu nombre. Empecé a pensar en los viejos tiempos, a repasar los acontecimientos ocurridos desde que nos separamos y me senté para escribir esta carta; no sé cuáles han sido tus ocupaciones, pero oirás, si decides escucharme, cómo el mundo me ha tratado a mí.

Mentre nello Yorkshire dilagano le proteste contro l’avvento della meccanizzazione del lavoro, l’imprenditore tessile Robert Moore conduce una florida azienda. Diviso fra i contrasti con gli operai e la convivenza con la sorella Hortense, egli non sa che Caroline, la cugina a cui Hortense insegna il francese, ha un debole per lui. Quest’ultima stringe ben presto amicizia con la ricca ereditiera Shirley, vera proprietaria della fabbrica e vecchia conoscenza di Robert. L’intricato triangolo amoroso finisce per incrociarsi con gli eventi della Storia, quando Moore scampa ad un attentato. Considerato un affresco vividissimo delle lotte sociali di metà Ottocento – e del luddismo, in particolare – "Shirley" è anche un vibrante inno all’amore, in un’epoca in cui, purtroppo, morte e sofferenza erano all’ordine del giorno. Un’opera inestimabile: nessun vero amante della grande letteratura potrebbe resistere al suo fascino senza tempo... Charlotte Brontë (1816-1855) nasce a Thornton, figlia di un pastore protestante e di un’insegnante. È la terzogenita di sei figli: le due sorelle minori Emily ed Anne saranno a loro volta scrittrici (autrici, rispettivamente, di "Cime tempestose" e "Agnes Grey"). Nel corso della sua vita assisterà alla morte di ogni membro della famiglia, con l’esclusione del padre. Nel 1842, dopo aver lavorato come insegnante ed istitutrice privata, si reca con la sorella Emily a Bruxelles, con l’intento di studiare il francese. Fra il 1847 e il 1853 dà alle stampe i suoi capolavori ("Jane Eyre" "Shirley" e "Villette"), per poi assecondare il volere paterno e sposare il reverendo Nicholls (1854). Muore poco dopo, a causa di complicazioni legate alla prima gravidanza.
