The Brontës

Do you know about the authors behind the works Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, or Agnes Grey? In today's episode you'll learn all about the three Brontes: Charlotte, Emily and Anne as well as the rest of their family. In the similar style to Stephanie's past author episodes, get ready to learn about their personal lives and the legacy they leave behind today. Perfect for those who are preparing for the new Wuthering Heights film starring Margot Robie and Jacob Elordi or for the next episode of the podcast when Emily (2022) will be discussed! (Editing Stephanie here: Elizabeth Bronte was born in 1815 and Charlotte was 1816. Ignore my comments on them being 'Irish twins.')References:Charlotte BronteEmily BronteAnne BronteJane AustenHouse of Guinness (Netflix)Emerald Fennell's other film is Salt Burn (Prime Video)Queen VictoriaJane EyreThe ProfessorVilletteWide Sargasso Sea by Jean RhysMy Plain Jane by Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton, and Jodi MeadowsShirleyTo Walk Invisible (BBC/PBS)The Tenant of Wildfell HallMarried Women's Property Act of 1870~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Thank you for listening!
