Sinossi
Introduzione di Paolo Ruffilli
Traduzione di Ugo Dettore
Quando Jane Eyre uscì nel 1847 sotto lo pseudonimo maschile di Currer Bell, un critico che lo recensì molto favorevolmente non si lasciò ingannare: «A scrivere è chiaramente una donna; e se non prendiamo un abbaglio, una nuova stella della letteratura». In parte autobiografico, questo romanzo ricco di colpi di scena da feuilleton fece scalpore nella società vittoriana per il coraggio e la franchezza della sua protagonista: una giovane donna senza dote né avvenenza, ma intelligente e tenace, forte e generosa, che dopo un’infanzia segnata da solitudine e privazioni trova la via del riscatto nel suo lavoro di istitutrice. Nella casa di Edward Rochester Jane scopre anche l’amore, un sentimento che per trionfare dovrà fare i conti con i fantasmi del passato e la volontà di questa antieroina di difendere prima di tutto la propria dignità. A più di sessant’anni dalla pubblicazione, la storia di Jane Eyre conquistò anche una lettrice sofisticata come Virginia Woolf: «L’esaltazione ci sospinge lungo tutto il libro... Alla fine siamo pieni del genio, della veemenza, dell’indignazione di Charlotte Brontë».

Recensioni
Yes, I suppose you can view this book mostly as a love story. That's what I did at age 13 - but that's why I was left disappointed back then¹. Or you can view this as an story of formation of a strong and independent female protagonist , a nineteenth-century feminist, light-years ahead of its time. An Leggi tutto
Reader, I gave it five stars. Please let me tell you why. Jane Eyre is the quintessential Victorian novel. It literally has everything that was typical of the period, but, unlike other novels, it has all the elements in one story. At the centre is the romance between Jane and Rochester, which is en
the perfect time to post a full review on your blog is 3.5 years after writing it. find this one here: https://emmareadstoomuch.wordpress.co... ------------- I am a very pretentious person.

Old books get a bad rap...but do they deserve it? Check out my latest BooktTube Video - all about the fabulous (and not so fabulous) Olde Bois. The Written Review "Though you have a man's vigorous brain, you have a woman's heart and--it would not do." "It would do," I affirmed
FIVE REASONS WHY JANE EYRE WOULD NEVER BE A BESTSELLER IN OUR TIMES: 5. Four hundred-odd pages of purely descriptive writing 4. Overt religious themes and moral preaching 3. A plain-Jane heroine who stays plain. No makeovers to reveal a hitherto hidden prettiness that only needed an application of hydr Leggi tutto
I feel like an ass saying this but... who actually thinks this is a cute romance!? What the actual f!! Now that this is out of the way. I did like Jane as a character and I also liked the portion of the book about her childhood but the two RoMaNcEs were train wrecks and if I hear anyone say they love Leggi tutto
I could bang Mr. Rochester like a screen door 'till next Tuesday. That's not all I got from this book, honestly...
“‘Jane, be still; don't struggle so like a wild, frantic bird, that is rending its own plumage in its desperation.’‘I am no bird; and no net ensnares me; I am a free human being, with an independent will; which I now exert to leave you.’” I am glad that in 1847 Charlotte Bronte made the decision to Leggi tutto
Certainly one of the best novels ever written.
The kind of novel that makes one believe in love (again) - or at least desire to hold on to the illusion. Likely my favourite read for 2020. For the time being, just basking and swooning. inebriated. Speechless. I know it's out of fashionAnd a trifle uncoolBut I can't help itI'm a romantic fool
