S4 Ep3: The Full Brontë
Join Tom & Jon on another rambly exploration.This time we're off back to the 1840s to take a good, hard look at the Brontë sisters. Who were Charlotte, Emily and Anne Brontë? What were they like? How is it possible that three sisters all wrote so brilliantly? Why are they still so revered by readers across the world? and what was the deal with Branwell?Pack a rain coat, a poetry book and a flask of tea and come with us o'er the moors, as we chat to experts: biographer - Lucasta Miller, English Lit Professor - Gregory Dart, and the lovely folk at the Brontë Museum in Haworth, to learn more about these fascinating and extraordinary writers.Lucasta's Website:https://www.lucastamiller.com/theauthorBuy The Brontë Myth:https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/355538/the-bronte-myth-by-lucasta-miller/9780099287148Visit The Brontë Parsonage Museum:https://www.bronte.org.ukAnd thank you to Professor Gregory Dart - a total legend.See him give Philomena Cunk a run for her money here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=beP0rZIITmI Hosted on Acast.
