CHARLOTTE BRONTE (1816–1855)
Charlotte Bronte was a famous English writer. She was born in a poor family. There were six children in it — five girls and one boy. Their mother died when Charlotte was a very small girl. The girls were sent to school for poor children. The children lived at that school in cold dark rooms and were always hungry. Charlotte’s two sisters died in that school. Later she described the school in her novel “Jane Eyre”.
When Bronte left school she became a teacher at a school for girls. She lived with her two sisters and the brother. The Bronte sisters wrote poems and novels. Their first book of poems was published in 1846. “Jane Eyre” is Charlotte Bronte’s second novel. It was published in 1848 and made the writer famous. Jane Eyre was a penniless orphan who lived in the family of her uncle Mr. Red. When he died, Jane stayed in the family. Mrs. Red was not kind to Jane and her children beat the girl. Mrs.Reed decided to send her to school for poor girls. She was sent to the Lowood school for
poor girls. Girls had a piece of bread and some water or supper. The water in the washrooms was ice. They could not walk for in winter, because they had no boots. Many girls died in the school. Jane Eyre inherited money her uncle (legacy divided between the four). After that she returns to Thomfield Hall to find the building burned and Rochester blinded. Jane marries him, and his sight is partially restored.
