(Thornton, 1816 - Haworth, 1855) British writer, the eldest of the three Brontë sisters (Charlotte, Emily, and Anne) and the only one who enjoyed popularity during her lifetime thanks to Jane Eyre (1847), a novel that established her in the literary world. Daughter of the Anglican pastor Patrick Brontë, Charlotte Brontë lived with her family for most of her childhood, amidst that rugged and desolate landscape that would reappear as the backdrop of the fantastic and romantic episodes of her novels and those of her sister Emily.
