Elizabeth Brontë (, ''commonly'' ;〔As given by ''Merriam-Webster Encyclopedia of Literature'' (Merriam-Webster, incorporated, Publishers: Springfield, Massachusetts, 1995), p viii: "When our research shows that an author's pronunciation of his or her name differs from common usage, the author's pronunciation is listed first, and the descriptor ''commonly'' precedes the more familiar pronunciation." See also entries on Anne, Charlotte and Emily Brontë, pp 175–176.〕 1815〔Patricia Ingham (2006): ''The Brontës'' (Oxford University Press), xii-xiii.〕25 June 1825) was the second daughter and child of Reverend Patrick Brontë and his wife, Maria. She was born in Hartshead, Yorkshire.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Brontë Parsonage Museum - Elizabeth Brontë )〕 ==Early life== The second child and daughter of Reverend Patrick Brontë and his wife Maria Brontë (née ''Branwell'') was born some time in 1815. She was baptised on 26 August 1815 by J. Fennell, an officiating Minister at the ''Parish of Thornton and Chapelry of Thronton'', in York, while Elizabeth Firth, an acquaintance of the family, stood as namesake and godmother.〔 When Elizabeth was just a few months old, the family moved from Hartshead to Thornton.〔 Elizabeth Gaskell wrote in her biography of Charlotte Brontë that a certain "Miss Temple" (probably the inspiration for the character in ''Jane Eyre'') offered a glimpse of Elizabeth's behaviour in this letter: Gaskell also wrote, adding that this had become quite of a habit: In 1821, when Elizabeth was six years old, her mother, weakened by the birth of her sixth child, died of cancer. Maria, her older sister, became the "guardian" of the children, maturing at a very young age. Patrick described his second daughter as a young girl with "sound common sense".〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Elizabeth Brontë」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
