Reader's note

Charlotte Brontë’s great gifts for story-telling, creating character, and evoking atmosphere distinguished all her novels. The Professor, her first, was written in 1846, but was rejected by publishers during her lifetime and did not appear until 1857. Like Villette it is based upon her experiences in Brussels, where she and her sister Emily went in 1842 to study French at a scheel kept by M. and Mm.e Heger. Instead of a girl, however, it is a young man, William Crimsworth, who takes a post as English teacher in a Brussels school and falls in love. The life of the school, the people he meets, and his own feelings are vividly described, and the easier part of the book there is a dramatic account of her experiences in a Yorkshire sloth mill, which points forward to Shirley.
