About the author
Charlotte Brontë was born at Thornton, Yorkshire in 1816, the third child of Patrick and Maria Brontë. Her father was perpetual curate of Haworth, Yorkshire from 1820 until his death in 1861. Her mother died in 1821, leaving five daughters and a son. Charlotte was employed as a teacher from 1835 to 1838, was subsequently a governess, and in 1842 went with her sister Emily to study languages in Brussels, where during 1843 she again worked as a teacher. Charlotte’s first novel, The Professor, was rejected by several publishers and was not published until 1857. Jane Eyre was published in 1847 and achieved immediate success. In 1848 Branwell Brontë died, as did Emily before the end of the same year, and Anne in the following summer, so that Charlotte alone survived of the six children. Charlotte married in 1854 the Revd A. B Nicholls, her father’s curate, but died in March 1855.

Und dann kam der Kindle und mit ihm die Gesammelten Werke von meinen englischen, französischen und spanischen und russischen Lieblingsautoren für nahezu kein Geld.
Okay, es gibt ab und an Druckfehler, die hier einfach übernommen wurden, aber ich habe alles da. Sofort verfügbar. Und wenn ich bei einem Wort, einem Begriff nicht ganz sicher bin, ein click und ich bin im Wörterbuch und habe die Erklärung.
Daß hier nur lesenswertes zu finden ist, muß ich bei den Autorinnen nicht schreiben.
