Jane Eyre possesses neither the great beauty nor entrancing charm that her fictional predecessors used to make their way in the world.

Readers of her era and ever after have taken the impoverished orphan girl into their hearts, following her from the custody of cruel relatives to a dangerously oppressive boarding school and onward through a troubled career as a governess. Jane's first assignment at Thorn field, where the proud and cynical master of the house harbors a scandalous secret, draws readers ever deeper into a compelling exploration of the mysteries of the human heart.\u003cbr\u003eA banquet of food for thought, this many-faceted tale invites a splendid variety of interpretations. The heroine's insistence upon emotional equality with her lover suggests a feminist viewpoint, while her solitary status invokes a consideration of the problems of growing up as a social outsider. Some regard Jane's attempts to reconcile her need for love with her search for moral rectitude as the story's primary message, and lovers of gothic romance find the tale's social and religious aspects secondary to its gripping elements of mystery and horror.

They invented a series of imaginary kingdoms and constructed a whole library of journals, stories, poems, and plays around their inhabitants. Emily's special province was a kingdom she called Gondal, whose romantic heroes and exiles owed much to the poems of Byron. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBrief stays at several boarding schools were the sum of her experiences outside Haworth until 1842, when she entered a school in Brussels with her sister Charlotte. After a year of study and teaching there, they felt qualified to announce the opening of a school in their own home, but could not attract a single pupil. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn 1845 Charlotte Brontë came across a manuscript volume of her sister's poems. She knew at once, she later wrote, that they were \"not at all like poetry women generally write...they had a peculiar music-wild, melancholy, and elevating.\" At her sister's urging, Emily's poems, along with Anne's and Charlotte's, were published pseudonymously in 1846. An almost complete silence greeted this volume, but the three sisters, buoyed by the fact of publication, immediately began to write novels. Emily's effort was \u003cb\u003eWuthering Heights\u003c\/b\u003e; appearing in 1847 it was treated at first as a lesser work by Charlotte, whose \u003cb\u003eJane Eyre\u003c\/b\u003e had already been published to great acclaim. Emily Brontë's name did not emerge from behind her pseudonym of Ellis Bell until the second edition of her novel appeared in 1850. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn the meantime, tragedy had struck the Brontë family. In September of 1848 Branwell had succumbed to a life of dissipation.
