Author Biographies

Charlotte Brontë (1816–1855), Emily Brontë (1818–1848), and Anne Brontë (1820–1849) were born in Yorkshire, England, and raised in the isolated parsonage of Haworth. Writing under the male pseudonyms Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell to bypass nineteenth-century publishing prejudices, they synthesized their profound imaginations, sharp intellects, and intense emotional lives into highly revolutionary literature. Their groundbreaking treatments of class, gender, and morality continue to profoundly influence writers and readers across the globe.
