| Summary | "Charlotte Brontë: A Monograph" by T. Wemyss Reid is a biographical account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the life and character of the renowned author Charlotte Brontë, attempting to provide fresh insights into her personality and experiences that may have been overlooked by her earlier biographer, Mrs. Gaskell. It delves into the complexities of Brontë's life, her literary genius, and the often misunderstood nuances of her character. The opening of the monograph introduces the author’s motivation for writing about Charlotte Brontë, emphasizing the gaps left in previous accounts, particularly regarding her emotional depth and the joys of her life that were overshadowed by her tragedies. Reid notes the significance of Brontë's correspondence with her lifelong friend Ellen Nussey, which serves as a poignant window into her true self beyond the melancholic image often portrayed. He also critiques Mrs. Gaskell’s portrayal, suggesting that Charlotte was not merely a victim of her circumstances but a vibrant individual shaped by her experiences, ready to share her remarkable journey with the world.
