The Middle And Latter Portion Of The Professor Is As Good As I Can Write. It Contains More Pith, More Substance, More Reality, In My Judgment, Than Much Of Jane Eyre.' Charlotte Brontthe Professor Was The First Novel That Charlotte Bront Completed. Rejected By The Publisher Who Took On The Work Of Her Sisters In 1846Anne'S Agnes Grey And Emily'S Wuthering Heightsit Remained Unpublished Until 1857, Two Years After Charlotte Bront'S Death. Like Villette (1853), The Professor Is Based On Her Experiences As A Language Student In Brussels In 1842. Told From The Point Of View Of William Crimsworth, The Only Male Narrator That She Used, The Work Formulated A New Aesthetic That Questioned Many Of The Presuppositions Of Victorian Society. Bront'S Hero Escapes From A Humiliating Clerkship In A Yorkshire Mill To Find Work As A Teacher In Belgium, Where He Falls In Love With An Impoverished Studentteacher, Who Is Perhaps The Author'S Most Realistic Feminist Heroine. The Professor Endures Today As Both A Harbinger Of Bront'S Later Novels And A Compelling Read In Its Own Right.For More Than Seventy Years, Penguin Has Been The Leading Publisher Of Classic Literature In The Englishspeaking World.
