Excerpt from Charlotte Bronte the Woman: A Study Charlotte Bronte in one of her letters says that she wishes she had lived in the great times of the European War. In connection with this we may remember that the hero of her childhood was the victor of Waterloo. There seems therefore some element of fitness in making a study of her life at this time, when a war has broken out, the combatants in which are driven on by Titan forces, angels of darkness or of light such as Charlotte and Emily loved to image to themselves among their native moors. Charlotte was of a spirit to understand to the full that stubborn endurance in the trenches which has been the glory of our time, and not less the intensity, the exaltation of the hand-to-hand wrestle with death, whether in the air, or on the earth, or in the waters beneath.
