Questa è la segra? Questa è una cosa che si è come a dire inizia che è ancora introdotto a una moda di audience. La successa era una moda di erabilità per tornare le conventiane dei vittori e le mie ai miei, e la faccia di uscita a creare le nostre noveli. La natura di love e vice, la famiglia di labori, la forma di scegliere la società di i nostri amici, sono le tue che ci sono avreggio il nostro periodo e ha fatto un po' di popola. These three ladies did not let their social and economic disadvantages hold them back, quite the opposite. They explored the prison house of their gender with a sharp eye, and exploited their experience of the world to portray Victorian society in detail. In order to be published, they had to adopt male pennames. Charlotte became Curra. Emily was Ellis, and Anne was Acton Bell. In 1848, when the Brontese novels were already popular in England, the publisher George Smith found in his office in London two ladies waiting for him. One of them had a letter addressed to Curra Bell, the known author of the book Jane Eyre. When he asked why she had a letter addressed to somebody else, she explained that the letter was actually for her, since she was Curra Bell. And that's how Mr. Smith found out that his most famous author was a woman. The three Brontese sisters saw in the novel the literary form that suited them best, and the Victorian age was also the golden age of the novel, since it was the perfect tool to describe the complexity and nuances of society. It was regarded as an adequate form of entertainment, as well as a good way to educate the middle and upper classes. Many Victorian novels were published in literary magazines and periodicals in serialized form, chapter after chapter. Readers had to wait weeks before knowing how their favourite novel would end. This way of publishing created a new idea of linearity in storytelling. A novel had to have a beginning, a middle and an end, otherwise it would have been too hard to follow. And this explains why one of the most popular genres of the time was the Bildum's Roman, the novel of formation, that followed the life of the protagonist from childhood to early adulthood, like in Charlottes' Jane Eyre. These novels had different subplots and a wide variety of characters, but the common recurring theme would be money, the making or losing of big fortunes that would change the life of the protagonists forever. Some of the most progressive authors also introduced more political themes, such as the indictment of social injustices, child and female labour, and the role of women in society. What was women's place in those years? Women were literally the angels in the house. They didn't have many rights, they couldn't go to university, nor inherent properties, let alone vote or express their thoughts. For a young woman, education revolved around those subjects and activities that would make her a good and agreeable wife, such as drawing, embroidery and playing nipiano. Those who were educated enough had only two career choices. They could become teachers or governesses in service to wealthy families. The latter was an underpaid job, slightly more than a cultivated babysitter with no benefits, nor rights. This social climate didn't stop some women like the Bronte sisters from becoming great writers. Let's find out their story. They were born in Yorkshire, the inspiration for most of the settings in their novels. Charlotte, the eldest sister, was born in 1816, followed by Emily in 1818, and Anne in 1820. The Bronte family had two more daughters, who died in childhood, and a son, Branwell. The siblings lived a lonely childhood, often alone in an isolated home on the Yorkshire Moors, but they made the most of it. They read everything they could lay their hands on, and they spent hours developing elaborate fantasy worlds. Emily and Anne worked together on inventing an imaginary land called Gondor, while Charlotte and Branwell created Angrier. Their childhood writings are the foundation of their more mature works. The scenery of weathering heights, for example, comes straight out of Gondor, and Jane Eyres' in Cippet derives from some of Branwell's writings. The Brontes weren't rich, so when the children became old enough, they left home to start working as teachers or gubernesses for the children of the gentry. None of them liked these jobs, but those experiences turned out to be useful to them in developing a more mature literary identity. The three sisters, although they spent all their time together, had very different personalities. Charlotte was spirited, intelligent, but also a bit selfish and manipulative. Anne was beautiful and conscientious, but very shy, while Emily was completely absorbed in herself, looking for comfort in her own imaginative world and paying little attention to what went on around her. Their literary career started when Charlotte found her sister Emily's notebook of poetry and insisted to have it published. They all gave their contribution to this volume of poetry, and they published it at their own expense using male pseudonyms. As we said, women weren't supposed to write, so they chose male names, saying that the book didn't sell well is an understatement, only two copies, but they had found their way in the world, writing. They started giving shape to their novels, often working late into the night, writing together and reviewing each other's work as it went along. Even if Anne and Emily didn't write as much as Charlotte, we can see that many of the same themes run through the Bronte's work as a whole. The first one to see her book published by a real publishing house was Charlotte, using again her male pseudonym. Jane Eyre, published in 1847, was so successful that the publisher decided to give a chance also to the other sisters. Anne's Agnes Gray and Emily's weathering heights went to press in the same year. However, while Agnes Gray and Jane Eyre sold very well, weathering heights didn't have the same luck. It was too dark and complicated a story to be appreciated by the Victorian readers. The Bronte's novels reflected the personalities of their respective authors. Anne's novel was serious and reflexive, while Emily's was a wild novel of passion and violence. Charlotte's novel was another case altogether. Si ende con il mio Espirizzato con il mio anche preso participant, and sensitivity. After the publication of their books, things went downhill fast for the Bronte sisters. Their brother, Branwell, an unsuccessful artist and a writer, addicted to drugs and drink, died at the age of 31. Emily followed him in 1848 at the age of 30 and a few months later in 1849 and died too at the age of 29. All three of them killed by tuberculosis. Charlotte was the only one left. She continued writing and became a well-known author and she went on to publish Shirley, Violet and the Professor. She got married in 1854 but died in 1855 of pregnancy complications. She was 38 years old. The Bronte sisters rebelled against the Victorian world of rules and labels. All their works borrowed themes from the Gothic tradition and had a romantic spirit. In their novels we can find extremes of passion and violence described with great elegance and insight. At the centre of their stories, there are always strong and independent women who have the power to control their fate and provide for themselves even if not in a traditional way. While Charlotte's sensitivity was more Victorian, Emily's bent was more mythical. Her masterpiece, "Wuthering Heights," was destructive passions that had no place in the society of the time. The Bronte's passion for writing was only equaled by the love of the countryside they grew up in, a love that shines through in all their writings. Let's have a closer look at their novels, starting from the one that was more successful at the time, that is Charlotte's Jane Eyre. It's a story of Jane, an orphan who lives with her aunt Mrs. Reed and her cousins. Her aunt treats her cruelly, and when Jane is old enough her aunt sends her away to a charity school. Jane is obviously sad and lonely. She has just one friend who, however, dies of consumption. Girls in the Victorian age could be very harsh places. Boys and girls were separated, and teachers were allowed to hit students with a ruler. When she finishes school, Jane finds a job as a governess to a young French girl Adele, who lives with her guardian, Mr. Rochester. Jane is finally happy, even if the house she lives in, Thornfield Hall is quite creepy. Mr. Rochester is often away, and she hears strange laughter coming from the attic. Nonetheless, Jane is attracted to him, and when he confesses his feelings for her and proposes, she accepts. But it's not all gold that glitters. The wedding ceremony is interrupted by a man, Richard Mason, who reveals that Rochester is already married to his sister, Bertha Mason. Bertha is mad, and she lives in the attic of Thornfield Hall. This explains the strange noises Jane heard when she was living there. Shocked by this revelation, Jane runs away and finds another job. One night she has a vision of Mr. Rochester calling her, so she returns to Thornfield Hall, and finds a place burnt to the ground. Bertha has said fire to the house and died, while Mr. Rochester is still alive, but has become blind in the effort to try to save his servants. Jane and Mr. Rochester are finally reunited and can get married. The plot of this novel has quite a few autobiographical traits. Charlotte had been a governess to several families, and during her stay in Brussels, she had fallen in love, unrequited, with a teacher, Constantine Hegear, who served as an inspiration for the character of Mr. Rochester. In Jane air, Charlotte employs a first person writer, who tells a story from Jane's point of view. Jane describes her thoughts, her feelings, and her emotional responses. That's why, when the novel first came out, it was a shock for the readers. Women at the time were not supposed to explore physical passions. Women are supposed to be very calm generally, but women feel just as men feel. They need exercise for their faculties and a field for their efforts, as much as their brothers do. Jane says in a novel. It's a Bill Dong's Roman, with some features of the Gothic novel, such as a disturbing atmosphere of Thornfield Hall, the mysterious events which occur in the house, and the hidden mad wife Bertha. Under the themes of love and family, Charlotte hid her outrage at the status of governorses and teachers. She condemned the isolations and vulnerability of a woman who goes into the world to make her own way. She also criticises gender roles, the condescending tone men used with women, and the social rules that made life hard for poor people. The novel can also be interpreted in view of the relationship between the two female characters, Jane and Bertha. Jane is a clever, independent and imaginative person. She deserves to be happy, but is Bertha really a bad person? She sets fire to Mr. Rochester's bed, yes, and she has an unpleasant and an evil laugh, but is that enough to define her as a bad person. She has been locked in the attic for so long, trapped in a marriage with a man who clearly hates her. Maybe Bertha is Rochester's victim, not the other way around. The fire she sets that burns down the house can be seen not as an evil act, but as an act of freedom which finally sets her free from her prison. It also makes Jane finally free to marry Rochester. That's why Bertha can be seen as a double of Jane, her repressed side. Bertha and Jane are two complementary figures, two aspects which manage to create a deeper story. Emily's weathering heights was published after Jane Eyre and didn't have the same success at the time, but is now regarded as one of the best novels of the Victorian Age. It's a story of love, passion, hate and revenge. It begins when the narrator, Mr. Lockwood, seeks shelter at weathering heights, the home of his new landlord. During a night he has a nightmare in which a young girl called Kathy appears at his window asking to be let into the house. The following night he asks for an explanation and an old servant Nelly tells him the whole story of two families, the urnshaws and the lintens. The former owner of weathering heights, Mr. Urnshaw, was a kind and respectable man. One night coming back from one of his work trips, he brought home a rescued orphan boy. He named the boy Heathcliff. Heathcliff stayed at the house and grew up with Mr. Urnshaw's children. A girl named Kathy and a boy named Hindley. Hindley was jealous of Heathcliff and hated him. A deep, intractable love grew between Heathcliff and Kathy, but when Mr. Urnshaw died problems arose. Hindley began to treat him cruelly, and Kathy decided to take her place into society and marry Edgillinton, the gentle and rich neighbour who loved her dearly. Brokenhearted, Heathcliff ran away and came back three years later inexplicably rich. He tricked Hindley into leaving him the property of weathering heights, and he moved there to be close to Kathy. He was still in love with her, but he was also filled with hatred for both Hindley and lintens who had taken her away from him. Heathcliff married Edgillinton's sister, Isabella, just to spite Kathy, and they had a son, Linton, a needy and always sick boy. When Kathy died of childbirth, he decided to take down both families. He forced Catherine, Kathy and Edgar's daughter, to marry Linton, even if the girl like more Hilton, Hindley's son, an illiterate but kind and noble young man. At this point there's a one year leap forward, and the action moves from the past to the present. The narrator leaves weathering heights, and when he comes back he finds out that both Heathcliff and Linton are dead, and Catherine is finally free to marry Hilton. This novel is quite unique. It contains elements of the gothic fiction, such as ghosts, the supernatural, visions, treated in a less artificial way. But it also talks about different kinds of love. The passionate love of Heathcliff and Kathy, that brings despair and suffering to both of them. The more proper and civilized love of Edgar for Kathy, and the finally balanced love of Hilton and Catherine, that has a passion of Kathy and Heathcliff's, but also the gentleness of Edgar's love. My love for Linton is like the foliage in the woods. Time will change it, and well aware, as winter changes the trees. My love for Heathcliff resembles the eternal rocks beneath, a source of little visible delight, but necessary. In elle, I am Heathcliff. He's always, always in my mind, not as a pleasure, any more than I am always a pleasure to myself, but as my own being. As Kathy herself says, she and Heathcliff are two halves of the same human being. Their relationship and their division can be paralleled to the relationship between Jane and Bertha in Jane Eyre. Social mobility and education are two other themes dear to all of Bronte's sisters. In this novel, class distinctions and education are always changing, and are used as a form of power over other characters. There's no hero nor heroine in this book. Heathcliff is an anti-hero, consumed by rage, jealousy and anger. He's a complicated character, capable of deep, tender love, and even more deep, terrible anger, and he has components of both the hero and the villain. On the other hand, Kathy is a woman in conflict between her true passions and her place in society. Kathy and Heathcliff's internal conflicts find a resolution in the next generation. This new relationship between Catherine and Hilton seems to suggest a reconciliation between the passions of the world of weathering heights, where there are no rules, but Heathcliff's rules, and the civility of the other house. The In Kathy and Hilton does a world of weathering heights finally find a balance. The structure of the book is a lot more complex than the structure of Jane Eyre. There's a multi-level narrative framework with two narrators. The external narrator portrayed by Mr. Lockwood and the internal narrator, the old servant Nelly, who tells Mr. Lockwood the story of Kathy and Heathcliff. Both are not totally reliable, and the reader is left with the task of putting together the various pieces and finding the hidden truths and the missing links. In this, and in many other respects, weathering heights is an astonishingly modern novel, so incredibly ahead of its time, it's just too bad that Emily didn't have a chance to write more books. We finally arrived to Anne, the youngest and often forgotten sister. Anne was a quiet figure in the Bronte household, without Charlotte's fire and Emily's passion. Nonetheless, her books had a great influence, if not on a public, at least on her sisters. Her book is a clear model for Jane Eyre, and it's worth mentioning. She started writing her first novel Agnes Gray while working as a teacher. It records faithfully and with a bit of humor the life of a governess, and, as Jane Eyre is strongly ordered by a graphical. The protagonist Agnes Gray is a poor young woman who needs to start working to help her family. So, she turns to the only job open to middle-class women. She becomes a governess. She thinks she's setting off for a new adventure, but instead she crashes against reality. She soon discovers all the secrets of an underpaid, boring, and unsatisfying job. Her only joy in life is Mr. Weston, a kind, generous and honest man, who eventually marries her. Like Jane Eyre, Agnes Gray is a plain heroine who speaks directly to the reader. One reason this novel was always regarded as inferior to Jane Eyre is because Charlotte's novel came out first, and stole the themes and the characters of his sister's novel. Agnes Gray was reviewed as a pale imitation of Jane Eyre, but Anne's book explores the world of teachers and governesses with a deep political engagement. Jane Eyre offers a romanticized view of the profession. The protagonist of the novel finds a lovely student and gets married with her employer. Agnes' experience is indeed much closer to the truth since many women had a really rough time teaching. Agnes' heroine is not dark, nor violent, nor passionate as his sister's heroines. She is just a nice woman who has a hard life but succeeds in being happy. She published a second novel, The Tenant of Wild Fell Hall, in which she analyzes more socially relevant themes such as domestic violence, alcoholism, and gender relations. The Bronte sisters influenced each other enormously during their lives. As reported by their biographers, they spent the evenings telling each other their stories, talking about their progress in the stories or the poems they were writing. We can see this influence in the shared interests and critics against a society they didn't like. We can find traces of Emily's gothic interests in Anne's second book, as well as we can reach Charlotte's personality in style in both her sister's novels since she was their editor. She is also the one we should thank the most, for it was her who encouraged the other two to write, and it was her success who helped the others to be published. Her books were so original, so far from the standards of the Victorian society that after almost two centuries after their publication, it's impossible to put them down. Let alone forget them.
