The first is taken from the 1950 edition of 'Jayne Eyre', in which Charlotte confirms that Acton, Ellis, and Currer Bell are not the same author using different pen names. She goes on to confirm the true identities of the 'Bells' are really Anne, Emily, and herself.
I found it interesting to read Charlotte's points of view on her siblings and their work. The only thing I totally disagree with her on is her negative opinions regarding Anne's 'Tenant of Wildfell Hall', essentially because it's my favourite work of fiction.
The second intro is for an edition of 'Wuthering Heights'. Charlotte discusses elements of the story and its characters and, of course, its author. ( )
