First novels: Charlotte wrote The Professor, Anne wrote Agnes Grey, and Emily wrote Wuthering Heights.
Agnes Grey and Wuthering Heights were accepted for publication, but the publisher dragged his feet.
For their second novels, Anne wrote the Tenant of Wildfell Hall and Charlotte wrote Jane Eyre, both heavily influenced by Wuthering Heights.
Instead of a novel about a woman in love with her professor with Charlotte as a self-insert, Jane Eyre is the unchained embodiment of that doomed love affair. It has soul. It has ecstasy. It's dangerous. And it would not exist without Wuthering Heights.
>Villette, which is nothing like Jane Eyre
Huh? Villette is basically Jane Eyre in a minor key. It's "Jane Eyre if she didn't get the happy ending".
JANE EYRE
Protagonist = young lady, no money, no friends
Becomes a teacher (governess)
Encounters half-French child (girl)
Encounters pushy & annoying young lady
Encounters older male authority figure
Falls for OMAF
Believes for hundreds of pages he doesn't like her
Reader can see he clearly does
Calamity overtakes him
They end up together
VILLETTE
Protagonist is young lady, no money, no friends
Encounters half-French child (girl)
Becomes a teacher
Encounters pushy & annoying young lady
Encounters older male authority-figure
Falls for OMAF
Believes for hundreds of pages he doesn't like her
Reader can see he clearly does
Calamity overtakes him
They don't end up together
The one who was prettiest.
So, none of them?
Emily Bronte was my favorite irl.
There's no way you knew any of the Brontë sisters irl.

Emily is the superior Bronte.
but Charlotte also wrote Villette, which is nothing like Jane Eyre

>emily only needed to write one novel to secure her legacy
It's obvious who the superior one is.
Charlotte.
>That nose
>That facial structure
Yikes.
Pretty eyes and mouth though
I wonder what it do
isny Emily the "literally me" author? Like an absolute mega autist who quit her schoolteacher job after she got bullied by little kids?
She sounds like I could have loved her so much bros
;___;
give me the list in order to read their libraries bros, I've already read wuthering heights, what do I read next??
>I will never to back in time and save her
E, because of her pitiable life. Seriously feel bad for her.
did none of them breed?
That painting of the Brontes is the funniest damn thing. Emily looks insanely autistic.
