Descriere
Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
For the first time a major novel by Charlotte Brontë appears in an edition based directly on the author's manuscript. Like her other mature work, The Professor owes much to her relationship with M. Heger, her Brussels schoolmaster. The first of her full-length novels, it is of special interest since it was written comparatively soon after her experiences in Brussels in the early 1840s, but not published until 1857, after her death. A full introduction gives an account of its composition, analyses the manuscript, and describes the circumstances of its eventual publication, in an inaccurate form, under the editorship of A. B. Nicholls.Appendices include an unused `Preface' - one of Charlotte Brontë's attempts to `recast' the novel - and a list of substantive variants between the manuscript and the first edition. Her last fragmentary novel, `Emma', begun after Villette, is now transcribed directly from the author's rough draft, instead of from the polished and revised text produced by Nicholls, George Smith, and Thackeray for the Cornhill Magazine in 1860.The volume contains full indexes to Biblical and literary allusions in Charlotte Brontë's four major novels, thus giving a fascinating guide to the nature and extent of her reading. The editors also make use of continuing research by providing a list of additions and corrections to all previous volumes in the Clarendon Brontë series.

Notă biografică
Charlotte Brontë (1816-1855) was an English novelist. Born the daughter of an Anglican clergyman, Charlotte was educated alongside her sisters Emily and Anne, and all three eventually became successful and acclaimed novelists. Brontë worked for much of her adult life as a teacher and governess, and, in 1846, published a shared collection of poems with her sisters using the names Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell. In 1847, the sisters decided to each write and publish their own novels, and while Emily¿s Wuthering Heights and Anne¿s Agnes Grey were accepted by publishers, Charlotte¿s The Professor was not. This rejection encouraged her to write Jane Eyre, by far her most famous work and a classic of English literature. When their identities were revealed, the Brontë sisters enjoyed both critical acclaim and acceptance into the prestigious literary circles of London. Charlotte, whose literary work includes several novels and hundreds of poems, passed away at the age of 38 due to complications from pregnancy, and was tragically the last of her siblings to die.
