From humble beginnings, the Bronte family of Haworth, England
reached a degree of literary fame that has seldom been replicated.
Specifically, Charlotte, Emily and, to a lesser extent, Anne all
made significant contributions to world literature. The great
tragedy of the Bronte family is that all were taken away by illness
before the prime of their lives. Anne died aged 28 year; Emily died
at age 30; and Charlotte lived the longest, dying in 1855 at age
38. Each of the sisters struggled to make their way in a world that
was not built with female independence in mind. Thus, they had do
work for a living as teachers and governesses before finding
success as authors. Even then, they kept their identities secret,
knowing that female authors were simply not taken seriously.
