    What an informative, uplifting video. Your passion and admiration for Emily shines through.
    Thank you, so restorative after a hot, tough day at work.
    Also....your dress 💛

    Read the book by Stevie Davies about Wuthering Heights ...she takes the book to pieces, analyses it and praises it ...a truly wonderfully critical book.

    Nice video. I think Emily enjoyed her work in the house and then escaping to her writing and the moors. I could never imagine her working for anybody else. I feel she was suited to her time.

      Your experience is neither uncommon, or strange, because Wuthering Heights is really in a category of its own as a novel, and it is very hard to NOT be deeply affected by it. There is literally NOTHING else like it out there. Hauntingly beautiful, evocative, filled with a mystery and sadness that inevitably stirs up an abundance of thoughts and feelings in the reader. I also believe that Emily placed a huge amount of herself into Catherine, and the themes that she deals with in Wuthering Heights are utterly timeless. These range from childhood, friendship, and family dynamics, through love, loss, separation, betrayal, suffering and death. Then there is the question of one's true identity. The consequences of our actions and choices. What does peace and happiness ultimately mean to us as individuals. The existence of the soul, the afterlife, heaven and hell, and immortality. All wrapped up in Emily's remarkably beautiful poetic language, and a story that leaves so many questions unanswered.

      @@SnehaFairy1111 I just really love Wuthering Heights, it is such an extraordinary creation. When I first read it - many years ago - I couldn't stop thinking about, and though I have since re-read it multiple times, EVERY single time I still feel the same sense of wonder, and find new things that I didn't pick up on before. It is such a thought provoking book, and the world Emily created feels so real, as if she is recounting actual events. Her poetry is also really beautiful, and her deep love for nature and the moors shines through, as does her fiercely intelligent, uncompromising, and freedom loving spirit. She was one of a kind.

    This really brought the Brontes to life for me. Now I must go and find Gaskill's biography on them. Please do more of these videos. Would love, love, love to see ones of Jane Austen, George Sand, and Virginia Woolf.

    • @funjuror

      Read Gaskill's biography, but she was a somewhat prejudice but if like myself you love the Bronte's you have probably read the many books dedicated to them.

    The brontes, with their Irish family background, were, as we know, incredibly creative. There is surely something in the Celtic soul which accounts for this.

  • @LawrenceBottorff

    Take yourself as far out of the modernist-triumphalist mindset, forget our ridiculous self-congratulatory "Zeitgeist" and just read E.B. especially her poetry. Understand mainly that nature to her would have been not a place, not "outside," but more the process of life -- with death life's master, always ready with termination. E.B. was like Poe in that her poetry was refined sublime, but her prose more handle-crank gothic horror. Her _Stars_ is Barbauld's _A Summer Evening's Meditation_ condensed, while _Wuthering_ was more Graveyard School "skulls and coffins, epitaphs and worms." I don't know if having German she'd read Novalis' _Hymns to the Night_ but she really ran up that same hill with him and seen the same vista. These two and their brief sights across the land are the center of my life. The rest are like the crowds following Bernadette to the Lourdes grotto, having themselves not seen "the beautiful lady."

    Wuthering Heights passionate novel. Emily Bronte was a passionate woman. Her life must have had its ups and downs. Emily was a passionate and very sensetive lady. Was a passionate lady Emily Jane Bronte. Heathcliff probably his unconscious product.

  • @laurapeter3857
    @laurapeter3857 ปีที่แล้ว

    The Bronte’s were buried in a vault in Saint Michael and All Angels church (except for Anne who’s buried in Scarborough where she died) , not in a cemetery outside her window. I get what you were trying to convey with living right next to a graveyard but at least Emily would have had the consolation her family was indoors out of the elements.

    I'm going to visit the house in February with my sister (and our heart sister), and I'm sure I'll feel the same way as you did. My mind is gonna be blown to be in the same place as she was, and seeing what she saw. I don't think my brain will process it properly I'm afraid.

    Wonderful video, thank you so much! I think I have to disagree about the carriage though; there is no way I would have made it back, personally. Maybe she had blisters or cramps, perhaps she had stumbled and was in pain. I wouldn't ever judge her for this, that is a massive distance.
    I absolutely adore the little stool Emily took with her, how amazing to think of her sitting on the moors and writing like that...!
    Thank you again, this film was beautiful. Much love.

    Comforting, that is what the view is out her window. Comfort. And the room itself, to remain where she began when. she must have had other options: again , comfort , peace. Safety.
