Elizabeth Gaskell’s The Life of Charlotte Brontë, published in 1857, is the first biography of the famed author of Jane Eyre. Written shortly after Brontë’s death, it offers a detailed and sympathetic portrayal of her life, from her quiet upbringing in Haworth to her literary success and personal tragedies. Gaskell, a fellow novelist and friend, aimed to protect Charlotte🔯’s reputation while shedding light on her struggles, including isolation, grief, and societal expectations. Blending factual detail with emotional insight, the biography helped shape Brontë’s legacy and remains a valuable account of one of Victorian literature’s most influential figures.
