书籍简介

《简爱》讲述了这样一个故事：简•爱自幼父母双亡，投靠冷酷的舅母，但舅母无情地抛弃了她。她在一所慈善学校做了六年的学生和两年的教师。十八岁时，简•爱受聘到桑菲尔德府学当家庭教师，认识了主人罗切斯特。两人都被对方独特的气质和丰富的感情所吸引，于是不顾身份和地位的巨大差距深深相爱了。正当他们举行婚礼时，有人证明罗切斯特的前妻还活着。简•爱知道他们不可能有平等的婚姻，于是选择了离开。后来，简•爱意外遇见了她的表兄妹们，并从叔叔那里继承了一笔遗产。但她无法抵御对罗切斯特的刻骨思念，于是便回到了已经失去了财富、身体也遭到火灾严重摧残的罗切斯特身边，毅然跟他结婚。在爱的沐浴下，罗切斯特找回了幸福和健康。

------------

《简·爱》是英国伟大、经久不衰的小说之一。虽然这位贫穷而勇敢的女主人公外表平平，但她却拥有不屈不挠的精神、敏锐的才智和巨大的勇气。她被迫与残忍的监护人、苛刻的雇主和僵化的社会秩序作斗争。当她成为神秘、讽刺和迷人的罗切斯特先生的女儿的家庭教师时，所有这些都限制了她的生活和地位。然而，在这部以约克郡荒原为背景的史诗般的爱情故事中，却充满了善良和温暖。简和罗切斯特的伟大激情在残酷的揭露、失去和重逢中得以幸存，却以悲剧收场。

Jane Eyre ranks as one of the greatest and most perennially popular works of English fiction. Although the poor but plucky is outwardly of plain appearance, she possesses an indomitable spirit, a sharp wit and great courage. She is forced to battle against the exigencies of a cruel guardian, a harsh employer and a rigid social order. All of which circumscribe her life and position when she becomes governess to the daughter of the mysterious, sardonic and attractive Mr Rochester. However, there is great kindness and warmth in this epic love story, which is set against the magnificent backdrop of the Yorkshire moors. Ultimately the grand passion of Jane and Rochester is called upon to survive cruel revelation, loss and reunion, only to be confronted with tragedy.

作者简介

夏洛蒂·勃朗特(1816—1855)，出生于英国北部偏僻山区一个贫寒的牧师家庭，排行第三，上面有两个姐姐，下有两个妹妹和一个弟弟。兄弟姐妹共六人。母亲死后，父亲没有能力养育六个子女，便将女孩子们送到一个救济性的寄宿学校里去，夏洛蒂毕业后在这个学校里当了三年教师，后来她外出做了家庭教师，这些经历在《简·爱》中都可以找到相应的叙述。夏洛蒂自小酷爱文学，法国浪漫主义文学对她产生了很大影响。《简·爱》一书的出版为她在英国文坛带来了很高荣誉。她的重要作品还有《雪莉》、《维莱特》、《教师》等。三十八岁的时候她才和父亲的副牧师结了婚，婚后他们过着甜蜜幸福的生活，不幸的是第二年她就因病去世了，但她在世界文学史上留下的深刻痕迹是永远不会被磨灭的。

Charlotte Brontë was born at Thornton, Yorkshire in 1816, the third child of Patrick and Maria Brontë. Her father was perpetual curate of Haworth, Yorkshire from 1820 until his death in 1861. Her mother died in 1821, leaving five daughters and a son. Charlotte was employed as a teacher from 1835 to 1838, was subsequently a governess, and in 1842 went with her sister Emily to study languages in Brussels, where during 1843 she again worked as a teacher. Charlotte’s first novel, The Professor, was rejected by several publishers and was not published until 1857. Jane Eyre was published in 1847 and achieved immediate success. In 1848 Branwell Brontë died, as did Emily before the end of the same year, and Anne in the following summer, so that Charlotte alone survived of the six children. Charlotte married in 1854 the Revd A. B Nicholls, her father’s curate, but died in March 1855.
