Brontë, Charlotte

Charlotte Brontë (1816–1855) was an English novelist and poet who published under the pseudonym Currer Bell. Born in Thornton, Yorkshire, to a clergyman father and a mother who died young, she and her sisters Emily and Anne wrote prolifically despite lives marked by poverty, illness, and early deaths. Jane Eyre, her most famous work, established her as a pioneering voice in Victorian literature for its passionate exploration of individual freedom, gender inequality, and moral integrity.
