A bit overly sentimental, but nonetheless fascinating documentary excerpt which looks at the final years of the literary icon, from the publication of Wuthering Heights to her death at Haworth Parsonage.

Handsome and charismatic Lord Rochester. Not handsome, only a mister

[fabziepie]

'the handsome, charismatic Lord Rochester' *facepalm* since when was Rochester handsome, a lord or even charismatic, for that matter?

Have you ever noticed that the greatest female writers that are grouped together such as charlotte and emily brontë and jane austen never married? I think they used Those emotions in their stories. I never really appreciated Emily because her story doesnt have a happy ending but i do appreciate her now, i wish she wouldve been able to live past the illness :(

@mckavitt i wonder what kind of accent the brontes had. probably more northern than southern i would think

@iorixs i read that she had it read at her funeral. emile bronte was a mystic, a prophetess.

[carolina591987]

@iorixs nope, i havent read that one. is it good?

[iorixs]

@carolina591987 have you read "no coward soul is mine"?

[carolina591987]

Wuthering Heights is the best book ive read but i dont like emily's poetry :/

[Forest355]

The BBC "Jane Eyre' is my favorite one...

[ThePianosarah]

honestly (although i'm quite interested in emily bronte's death) i watched this video to learn how "bronte" is spelled!

@LogInAnders So the death of her mother, being sent to a cruel boarding school, the death of her 2 older sisters and finally her only brother, then suffering and dying of tuberculosis....is not tragic? Perhaps some other people do have more tragedy in their lives, but I wouldn't exactly call her misery self-created.
