M: Hi, Rose, you are so absorbed that you didn’t even know I came in.
W: Oh, you scared me. We were assigned the homework to learn more about the Bronte sisters. [12]Now I am reading one of their books Jane Eyre.
M: I’ve just read it the other day. No wonder you were absorbed. It is worth reading. It was written by the eldest sister, Charlotte Bronte.
W: So, you know the sisters. Tell me more about them.
M: The other two are Emily and Anne, and their famous works are Wuthering Heights, and Agnes Grey respectively.
W: I learned they had a brother. Is he also well-known?
M: Well, it’s interesting that those literature geniuses had such an ordinary brother. Whatever he did, he ended up a failure. However, later he got famous because it was he who left the world the sisters’ only picture.
W: You mean without him, we would not have learned what the sisters looked like?
M: Definitely true. Personally, I think the reason, why he was a failure is that he might have been spoiled. Have you learned that his sisters sacrificed a lot to promote him?
W: What do you mean?
M: In the early period of the 19th century, women were usually looked down upon. So the hopes of a family rested on the male child. The three sisters had their first books published in their pen names.
W: So, inequality between men and women was a historical problem. But it’s a pity that the sisters died very young.
12 What was the woman doing when the man came in?
13 Who wrote Wuthering Heights?
