Synopsis "Villette"

With an Introduction and Notes by Dr Sally Minogue, Department of English, Canterbury Christ Church University College. Based on Charlotte Brontë's personal experience as a teacher in Brussels, Villette is a moving tale of repressed feelings and subjection to cruel circumstance and position, borne with heroic fortitude. Rising above the frustrations of confinement within a rigid social order, it is also the story of a woman's right to love and be loved.

(Thornton, 1816 - Haworth, 1855) Escritora británica, la mayor de las tres hermanas Brontë (Charlotte, Emily y Anne) y la única que disfrutó de popularidad en vida gracias a Jane Eyre (1847), novela que la consagró en el mundo literario. Hija del pastor anglicano Patrick Brontë, Charlotte Brontë vivió con su familia durante la mayor parte de su infancia, en medio de aquel agreste y desolado paisaje que habría de reaparecer como fondo de los fantásticos y románticos episodios de sus novelas y de las de su hermana Emily.
