Ellis, Acton, and Currer Bell were the pseudonyms used by Emily, Anne, and Charlotte Bronte.) - Indeed, I feel myself that it is time the obscurity attending those two names- Ellis and Acton- was done away. The little mystery, which formerly yielded some harmless pleasure, has lost its interest; circumstances are changed. It becomes, then, my duty to explain briefly the origin and authorship of the books written by Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell. About five years ago, my two sisters and myself, after a somewhat prolonged period of separation, found ourselves reunited, and at home. Resident in a remote district, where education had made little progress, and where, consequently, there was no inducement to seek social intercourse beyond our own domestic circle, we were wholly dependent on ourselves and each other, on books and study, for the enjoyments and occupations of life. The highest stimulus, as well as the liveliest pleasure we had known from childhood upwards, lay in attempts at literary composition; formerly we used to show each other what we wrote, but of late years this habit of communication and consultation had been discontinued; hence it ensued, that we were mutually ignorant of the progress we might respectively have made.

Do we know anything about the narrator's class, eco status, race and nationality? Can you identify the ways in which this voice, through its use of emphasis, selection, sequencing and other narrative devices shapes and controls the story. E.g.

Implications of the novel's full title: "Jane Eyre: An Autobiography" Genre Conventions of Autobiography The "I" Pronoun, Speaking subject versus subject of speech Edited by Currer Bell (title page of 1847) Averse to personal publicity, we veiled our own names under those of Currer, Ellis, And Acton Bell; the ambiguous choice being dictated by a sort of conscientious scruple at assuming Christian names, positively masculine, while we did not like to declare ourselves women, becausewithout at the time suspecting that our mode of writing and thinking was not what is called "feminine"we had a vague impression that authoresses are liable to be looked on with prejudice. . . .

Aufgrund der Darstellung der erotisch-sexuellen Gefühle der weiblichen Hauptfiguren stieß der Roman im viktorianischen England zunächst auf Empörung. Erst Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts wurde die Bedeutung des Werkes vor allem für die Entwicklung moderner Erzähltechnik erkannt (der Roman wird von zwei verschiedenen, nicht auktorialen Erzählerinstanzen bestimmt). Heute zählt "Wuthering Heights" zu den herausragenden Romanbeispielen innerhalb der englischen Literatur und weist seine Verfasserin als literarisch bedeutendste der

They created the kingdom of Gondal and wrote all kinds of epic stories and poems set in that realm. Charlotte and Branwell were in charge of Angria proper, while Emily and Anne (the youngest) ran the neighboring kingdom of Gondal. Charlotte's next adventure was going to school in Brussels with Emily in 1842. Charlotte's time there was brief, less than two years, but it led to her eventual writing of Villette beginning in 1852. Back home, Charlotte lapsed into chronic unemployment and severe hypochondria, actually thinking she was going blind, just like her father was.

BY JOYCE CAROL OATES J ane Eyre" abounds in mysteries and surprises. "Restlessness was in my nature; it agitated me to pain sometimes ... 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; they suffer from too rigid a constraint, too absolute a stagnation, precisely as men would suffer." Instead, the novel begins with the seemingly disappointed statement: "There was no possibility of taking a walk that [rainy] day," and counters almost immediately with, "I was glad of it; I never liked long walks." When excluded from Christmas revelries in the Reed household, the child Jane says, "To speak the truth, I had not the least wish to go into company." Jane's defiance, which doesn't exclude childlike fears, strikes us as forthright in the way of the adolescent temperaments of other famous literary voices Jo March of Louisa May Alcott's "Little Women," Huck Finn, Holden Caulfield and their now-countless younger siblings. Here is a voice, we believe, we can trust; and our trust is not misplaced. Another surprise of "Jane Eyre" is the seemingly "real" that is, non-romantic nature of the lovers-to-be. "Jane Eyre" is many times described as small, plain, undistinguished; her mysterious, Byronic-tempered employer Rochester is pointedly not "handsome or heroic looking"; their conversations are, from the start, marked by an unusual directness, surely rare in 19th-century women's fiction, with the underlying premise, which is never questioned, that the penniless Jane and the wealthy Rochester are equals in intelligence, character and worth. Their attraction to, and developing love for, each other is immediate, yet grows as naturally as it might in real life, characterized by such remarks as Rochester's to Jane, "You are not pretty any more than I am handsome," and at the novel's end, after the lovers have been parted for a year, and suffered losses, an exchange that must have made readers gasp, and perhaps shed a tear:

78. Love On The Moors: The Bronte Family Jane Eyre An Autobiography. Edited by Currer Bell. By Charlotte Bronte. Villette.ByCurrer Bell. By Charlotte Bronte. London Smith, Elder, and Company, 1853. http://www.lib.virginia.edu/speccol/exhibits/gothic/love.html

The prolific and puzzling Bronte family are right out of a Gothic novel. Writers all but for the talented dilettante Branwell, the sisters supported the family with their updating of the Gothic genre. Their lives were not unlike the novels they wrote: though not as far-ranging, they all lived with great intensity and even violence. Anne, Charlotte, and Emily all wrote of intense, cruel men, Gothic heroes all; many scholars feel they based these characters on their brother Branwell, the unwilling pet of all the family. They were strong heroines, however: Elizabeth Gaskell wrote of Emily's cauterizing her own wound, inflicted by a mad dog, with a hot pair of tongs. Anne and Emily died of tuberculosis, and Charlotte, the most Gothic of all, desperate and married to a man she despised, starved herself to death while pregnant. Jane Eyre: An Autobiography. Edited by Currer Bell. By Charlotte Bronte. London: Smith, Elder, and Company, 1847. First edition. The McGregor Collection. Note the original purple cloth and the label of the binders Westley's and Company, London. This novel both uses and questions the Gothic conventions of mysterious parentage, a dark and tortured antihero, and a dangerous, almost monstrous person of another culture. The orphaned Jane Eyre, mistreated by her cruel guardian and brutalized at a boarding school, accepts a position as a governess at an isolated mansion. Jane falls madly in love with her tortured employer, Rochester, who possesses a secret of his own. He is later blinded and maimed by his mad wife from Barbados as she burns down the mansion. Jane finally can be with her Gothic hero, who has been all but destroyed by these Gothic conventions.
