Emily Bronte (1818-1848) was born in Thornton, Yorkshire, in the north of England. Her father, the Rev. Patrick Bronte, had moved from Ireland to Weatherfield, in Essex, where he taught in Sunday school. Eventually he settled in Yorkshire, the centre of his life's work. In 1812 he married Maria Branwell of Penzance. Patrick Bronte loved poetry, he published several books of prose and verse and wrote to local newspapers. In 1820 he moved to Hawort, a poverty-stricken little town at the edge of a large tract of moorland, where he served as a rector and chairman of the parish committee. The lonely purple moors became one of the most important shaping forces in the life of the Bronte sisters. Their parsonage home, a small house, was of grey stone, two stories high. The front door opened almost directly on to the churchyard. In the upstairs was two bedrooms and a third room, scarcely bigger than a closet, in which the sisters played their games. After their mother died in 1821, the children spent most of their time in reading and composition. To escape their unhappy childhood, Anne, Emily, Charlotte, and their brother Branwell (1817-1848) created imaginary worlds - perhaps inspired by Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels (1726). Emily and Anne created their own Gondal saga, and Bramwell and Charlotte recorded their stories about the kingdom of Angria in minute notebooks. After failing as a paiter and writer, Branwell took to drink and opium, worked then as a tutor and assistant clerk to a railway company. In 1842 he was dismissed and joined his sister Anne at Thorp Green Hall as a tutor. His affair with his employer's wife ended disastrously. He returned to Haworth in 1845, where he rapidly declined and died three years later.

The conditions were harsh and an epidemic soon broke out, taking the lives of Maria and Elizabeth. Charlotte becames very ill as well, and she and Emily were sent home to Haworth. About this time, Branwell, the only boy in the family, received a box of twelve wooden soldiers. The children began to write stories about them called the "Young Men" plays. In 1835, Charlotte became a teacher at Roe Head school and Emily joined her as a student. Emily, however, could not stand being away from her beloved moors, and became violently homesick. She returned home and her younger sister, Anne, took her place. Back to top.

Emily Bronte was a writer who lived during the nineteenth century. She came from a family of writers, and her two sisters are also famous for their work, but it is both Emily's life and work which stand out as being visionary and inspiring. Emily lived almost all her life at her family's home, Haworth Parsonage, near the Yorkshire Moors in northern England. She loved this bleak and stormy landscape and much of her writing was inspired by her home. When Emily was very young, her mother and two eldest sisters died of terrible illnesses. She was deeply affected by their deaths and would always feel the pain of their loss in her life. However, Emily had two other sisters and a brother, and the four of them were very close during their childhood.As children they created a very detailed imaginary world for themselves, inspired by a gift of toy soldiers from their father, who always encouraged his children in their creativity and artistic goals.

Emily Bronte Emily Bronte Wuthering Heights and Selected Poetry When Wuthering Heights was first published, it was rejected. Not in the slang meaning, but in the truest sense of the word: Publishers didn’t understand the book, or the author. They didn’t understand the complexities and messages in the story or the true strength of character its author possessed. Emily Bronte was not a typical Victorian woman. She was very reclusive and didn’t have much interest in the outside world. She had pastimes that weren’t proper for women during those times and her views on religion were not what you would expect from a clergyman’s daughter. And, she was in possession of a wonderful imagination that wouldn’t quit. It is evident that the last four of the Bronte’s all had good imaginations when they were very little. Charlotte, Branwell, Emily and Anne frequently played games of imagination, usually having to do with their kingdoms. Branwell and Charlotte had the kingdom of Angria and Emily and Anne had the kingdom of Gondal. They would play at these games for hours at a time, writing poems and prose to propel their magical worlds. As they grew up, the three sisters and one brother went their separate ways. Charlotte was very anxious to get into the outside world. Emily was much more reclusive. She made three sojourns into the outside world. One was at the Clergy Daughter’s school where she stayed for seven months, one was to school in Roe Head where she left after three months because she was homesick, and one was to teach at Law Hill, a school near Halifax. She left there after two years and returned home to be a housekeeper.

You said I killed you—haunt me, then! The murdered do haunt their murderers. I believe—I know that ghosts have wandered on earth. Be with me always—take any form—drive me mad! only do not leave me in this abyss, where I cannot find you! Oh God! it is unutterable! I cannot live without my life! I cannot live without my soul! First published under Emily’s pseudonym Ellis Bell, the combination of its structure and elements of passion, mystery and doomed love as well as social commentary have made Wuthering Heights an enduring masterpiece. Set in 18th Century England when social and economic values were changing and land ownership did not always the man make, it is a world of patriarchal values juxtaposed with the natural elements. Bronte explores themes of revenge, religion, class and prejudice while plumbing the depths of the metaphysical and human psyche. Bronte’s own home in the bleak Yorkshire moors provides the setting for the at-times other-worldly passions of the Byronic Heathcliff and Catherine. Also having written much poetry, Emily Bronte’s works did not receive wide acclaim until after her death at the age of thirty.

Help Search: Biography of Emily Bronte (1818-1848) Jane Eyre Wuthering Heights , in which her familiar Yorkshire surroundings become the setting for a tragedy whose passion and beauty is equal to anything that could be imagined elsewhere. Passion is in no way inconsistent with empty moors, cold winters, and brown hills. As might be imagined from her intense emotional and artistic attachment to the country of her childhood, Emily Bront? very rarely spent any time away from home: indeed she could hardly do so at all. In 1835, at the age of seventeen she went to school at Roe Head where Charlotte was teaching, but became so pale and thin that her sister was convinced she would die unless she returned home. She left home again to be a governess in 1837 (a failure) and to study in Belgium in 1842, but both times she found she was unable to bear being away from home and her beloved, wild countryside. She could not adapt to playing the role of a genteel Victorian lady, or deal with the intrusion of strangers into her life ? she could never fit in. Emily never made any close friends outside of her family circle. In 1845 Charlotte came across Emily's Gondal poems and read them, which made Emily furious when she found out. However, the discovery led to the publication of a volume of Charlotte, Emily, and Anne's poetry under the names of Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell. They sold only two copies, but did not give up writing:

As children, Charlotte, Branwell, Emily, and Anne had one another and books as companions; in their isolation, they created an imaginary kingdom called Angria and filled notebooks describing its turbulent history and character. Around 1831, thirteen-year old Emily and eleven-year old Anne broke from the Angrian fantasies which Branwell and Charlotte had dominated to create the alternate history of Gondal. Emily maintained her interest in Gondal and continued to spin out the fantasy with pleasure till the end of her life. Nothing of the Gondal history remains except Emily's poems, the references in the journal fragments by Anne and Emily, the birthday papers of 1841 and 1845, and Anne's list of the names of characters and locations. letters , two diary papers written when she was thirteen and sixteen, and two birthday papers , written when she was twenty-three and twenty-seven.
