BRONTE CHARLOTTE
Novelista inglesa, de las tres hermanas Brontë, Charlotte 1816-1855 fue la mayor y más longeva, así como la que dispuso de más tiempo para entregarse a la literatura. Novela llevada al cine en varias ocasiones -aunque es especialmente memorable su versión de 1944, protagonizada por Orson Welles y Joan Fontaine-, "Jane Eyre" fue desde su aparición un éxito rotundo. Otras obras escritas por Charlotte son "Shirley", "Villette", "El profesor".
