When the Brontë sisters published their volume of poetry in 1846, under their respective pseudonyms, numerous parties made the mistake of thinking that they were three brothers. Among others was Miss Martineau, who addressed a letter to Charlotte Brontë, -"Currer Bell, Esq."

"Averse to publicity, we veiled our own names under those of Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell; the ambiguous choice being dictated by a sort of conscientious scruple of assuming Christian names positively masculine, while we did not declare ourselves women, because-without at the time suspecting that our mode of writing and thinking was not what is called 'feminine,' -we had a vague impression that authoresses are liable to be looked on with prejudice.".
