Happy 200th Birthday Charlotte Bronte!

Today, 21st April 2016, marks a very special day indeed – it’s the 200th anniversary of the birth of one of the world’s most loved novelists: Charlotte Brontë. Celebrations will be taking place on all continents, and I myself will be having a slice of cake and a glass of bubbly in Haworth later today; it should be a birthday party to remember, and of course we’ll also be honouring Emily Brontë and our own dear Anne Brontë in 2018 and 2020 respectively. In today’s blog we’ll take a brief look at Charlotte’s life and at just why she’s so popular two centuries after her birth.

This was the birthplace of Maria and Patrick Brontë’s four youngest children, Charlotte, Branwell, Emily and Anne. It was home to the Brontë family from 1815 when Patrick was curate at the church of St James in Thornton, until 1820 when the family moved to Haworth.

Hip hip hurrah!

(tweehonderdmaal) voor Charlotte Brontë, auteur van de klassieker Jane Eyre en de oudste van de drie schrijvende Brontë-zusjes. Zij werd tweehonderd jaar geleden geboren op 21 april 1816.

Op 21 april is het tweehonderd jaar geleden zijn dat de Engelse schrijfster Charlotte Brontë geboren werd. De High Tea Birthday Party in Hotel Métropole op 24 april is misschien de gelegenheid om (over) Brontë te lezen.

The Brussels Brontë Group werkt samen met beeldhouwer Tom Frantzen (van onder andere Zinneke) aan een standbeeld van de zussen Charlotte en Emily in Brussel. Een ideale locatie ervoor zou Bozar zijn, waar het Pensionnat de Demoiselles Heger-Parent stond.
