Is Charlotte Bronte ugly?
Some people might say so. If you meant Charlotte Bronte , the writer , I don't think she was ugly. She saw herself as she portrayed Jane Eyre in her book with the same name. So , Charlotte herself saw herself as being ugly. She said : "I will show you a heroine as plain and as small as myself." In the 19th century 'ugly' was used to describe people with classical African facial traits: subnasal prognatism. Dutch poet Jan Vos was deemed 'ugly' and 'as bad as Shakespeare' by some racist 19th century reviewer. Charlotte Brontë is supposed to have had a large nose and large mouth. The shape of her mouth and her complexion marred her looks, according to her publisher. Her books are full of brown and black complexions, like with Jane Austen. Vilette was of a 'brunette' complexion, as was Jane Austen in person. So today we would call them Blacks, but not automatically equate this with 'ugly.' Still Charlotte might not have been handsome.
