<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Sixty-five
turbines, each one of them forty metres taller than Blackpool Tower! All of
them close by Top Withens. This is what is planned by Saudi-backed developers
after the government’s dropping of its moratorium on large onshore windfarms. Read
this report if you have not done so already – and get in touch with your

She was one of the servants who were in the company of the Brontë children, and was at the Thornton Parsonage soon after the birth of Charlotte which has led to her description as 'Charlotte's nurse'. She was twelve, possibly thirteen when she began her service in July 1816. A couple of years later, Patrick Branwell and Emily Jane arrived, and Nancy's younger sister Sarah joined her in service. They stayed until 1824. <p></p><p>Her grandfather was French, and she was the daughter of a local cordwainer, Richard Degarrs, who was known as Dicky Garrs. Perhaps the 'de' was dropped because at the time Napoleon was the bogeyman in the British Isles. She married Pat Wainwright, who died, then John Malone, who worked in a Bradford wool warehouse. When he died, she ended up in the Bradford Workhouse, but it was not an unpleasant experience for her because she received preferential treatment, with her own room and relatively good food, because by this time the Brontës were famous, and the mythmaking had begun, not only because of the novels but because <i>The Life of Charlotte Brontë </i>by Elizabeth Gaskell, had been published in 1857. Visitors to Haworth and its environs sought out people like Nancy, who appears in Gaskell's part-fact, part-fiction biography as 'wasteful'. Nancy was so upset that she asked Patrick Brontë to put the record straight in a kind of testimonial letter which she had framed to hang on the wall. It reads:</p><p><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: "Noto Serif", serif; text-size-adjust: auto;"><span style="color: #2b00fe;">Haworth, August, 1857. I leave to state to all whom it may concern that Nancy and Sarah Garrs, during the time they were in service, were kind to my children, honest, and not wasteful, but sufficiently careful in regard to food and all other things entrusted to their care. P. Brontë, A.B., Incumbent of Haworth</span></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: "Noto Serif", serif; text-size-adjust: auto;">Until now, her grave has been unmarked. Now it is suitably marked in stone, and can be visited.</span></p><p><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Noto Serif, serif;"><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-size: 19px;">Watch this on YouTube, filmed in January - </span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Noto Serif, serif;"><span style="caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-size: 19px;"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgblIZAoZNE">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgblIZAoZNE</a></span></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: "Noto Serif", serif; text-size-adjust: auto;"><span style="color: #2b00fe;"><br /></span></span></p><div class="blogger-post-footer">Postings on the Brontë Parsonage Blog reflect the views of the individual writers.

The June weekend was usually described as 'AGM weekend', but this year the AGM will be held in the autumn, as it was in 2021. There are no official events planned, but according to information in recent emails to this blog, some members will be meeting unofficially. It appears that Zoom contact, useful during the pandemic, can not substitute for in-the-flesh contact. Please get in touch if you have definite plans. </p><div class="blogger-post-footer">Postings on the Brontë Parsonage Blog reflect the views of the individual writers.

year, Angela was in Milan to meet Italian friends and to launch her book.

2008 June weekend, Angela organised a day of events in Thornton (where she
lived) which included readings from Charlotte Brontë’s letters by herself and
Professor Robert Barnard:</span></div>

Brontë Society organised an excursion to Lothersdale, primarily to take a look at
the outside of Stonegappe, the mansion which once belonged to the Sidgwick
family, where Charlotte Brontë was an unhappy governess in the summer of 1839.
The main part of the excursion was in the church at Kildwick, where I joined
Angela in a dramatic ‘recollection’ of the events of that year. Chris Went contributed

Angela was responsible for another event in Thornton, this time centred on
Emily’s Café, which is in the Brontë birthplace. Poet Simon Zonenblick showed a

He was 85, and had retired to the Charterhouse in London after leaving his home in Clitheroe, Lancashire. His funeral takes place at the chapel there (nearest tube Barbican) at 3pm next Tuesday, 25 January 2022. There may be (tbc) a thanksgiving service at St Martin in the Fields nearer Easter.</span></span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;">Dudley was a member of the Brontë Society Council (now replaced by Trustees), elected by members many times between 1991 and 2003. From 1992 to 1995 he chaired it. This was mainly before my time on Council - I was first elected in 1998 - but I soon saw him as a respected elder statesman who was full of welcome advice and information on how things ran and how things should be done. This was not always Brontë-related.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;">For some remote reason, my first conversation with him must have turned to the Romans (he was a retired Classics teacher), and I clearly remember that he informed me that the Roman army's javelin, the pilum, was thrown at the beginning of a battle before swords were drawn, and that it was designed to break. This was to prevent it from being thrown back. He was extremely knowledgeable about cricket, and was rather disappointed that I was not, despite living near the famous stadium in Headingley, and was fascinated by mountain climbing. After I had told him that I had just returned from climbing in the Lake District, he informed me about a book he had written about George Mallory, who may or may not have reached the summit of Everest in 1924. The book is <i>Because It's There: The Life of George Mallory. </i></span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;">He was particularly interested in Patrick Brontë's life, and sometimes remarked on the inaccurate way he is portrayed in Elizabeth Gaskell's 1857 biography <i>The Life of Charlotte Brontë</i>, which is still taken as gospel in some quarters rather than Juliet Barker's encyclopaedic <i>The Brontës </i>(1994). In 2005, his <i>The Letters of Rev. Patrick Brontë </i>became the most complete </span><span style="font-family: trebuchet;">published </span></span><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: medium;"><span>collection<i>. </i>It </span><i><span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; color: black; display: inline; float: none; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: start; text-decoration-color: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span>helps rehabilitate Patrick's reputation, showing him to be a tolerant and attentive father.</span><span> </span></span></i></span><span style="font-size: medium;">Further rehabilitation came with the book by which he will be remembered in future, published in 2010: <i>Patrick Brontë: Father of Genius</i>. This contains a foreword by the Archbishop of Canterbury, which must have greatly pleased the author, a life-long practising Anglican. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Dudley Green's memorial service (Choral Eucharist) was live streamed from St Martin-in-the-Fields at 1pm on Wednesday 16 March 2022. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">It is on YouTube at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DrLJmVJWnq8&t=4551s">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DrLJmVJWnq8&t=4551s</a></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Also on YouTube is the Choral Evensong at Blackburn Cathedral on Sunday 15 May 2022 which was a memorial to him. The address from his brother Stephen can be heard about four minutes in -</span></p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5bQH481QsM&t=1516s"><span style="font-size: medium;">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5bQH481QsM&t=1516s</span></a></p><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: medium;"><b>Isabel Stirk writes: </b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: medium;"><span><span style="background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll white; color: black;">I was so glad that I was able to see the memorial
service in memory of Dudley Green.</span><span style="color: black;"><span style="background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll white;"> What a great tribute it was with the wonderful
singing, the moving readings and hymns and the heart-felt eulogy. It was clear
that he had been an established past of St Martin-in- the- Fields and had
become close to the heart of the community there.</span><span style="background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll white;"> It was obvious from the Reverend Dr Wells'
address that Dudley had lived a full life with many interests and his close
attention to detail was how he had lived that life.</span></span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: medium;"><span><span style="color: black;"><span style="background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll white;"> </span><br />
<span style="background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll white;">We at the Brontë Society had benefited from
this trait as anything Dudley did for the Society, whether it was giving a
lecture, leading a walk, or chairing a meeting, was done with great care and
attention.</span><span style="background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll white;"> The Reverend Evens said he remembered Dudley at
services sitting near the back at the right hand side. I will remember him in
St Michael and All Angels Church in Haworth at the annual thanksgiving services
for the Brontë family. Here he would be greeting fellow members in his
cheerful, friendly way, reading a lesson in his clear voice and singing the
hymns with great gusto.</span></span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: medium;"><span><span style="color: black;"><span style="background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll white;"> </span><br />
<span style="background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll white;">Dudley was held in high regard in the Brontë
Society. He was always friendly, welcoming and always willing to share his
great knowledge of the Brontë family.</span><span style="background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll white;"> At the service his brother showed the great love
they had shared and I feel that he will miss Dudley very much. I am sure, however,
that he will take comfort from the words in one of the hymns sung this
afternoon:</span><span style="background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll white;"> 'He knows he at the end shall life inherit.'</span></span></span></span></p><p><b><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: medium;"><span><span style="color: black;"><span style="background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll white;"> Margaret McCarthy writes:</span></span></span></span></b></p><p><b><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: medium;"><span><span style="color: black;"><span style="background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll white;"></span></span></span></span></b></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: medium;"><span><span style="color: black;"><span style="background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll white;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvf97WRNhHlm7kBbeisxgrqaERytBHKqOK-R48nEEmL3WirqpHAxWb34TAaEi17RPmzmBW1TenTnw31Bzlu3CRFB_X_na6whmU4aJPg7Jqr1j7Aga1nkuB6K9oy5JNgfYjT_zo7ZV082E3cQYcfA-mbOoJT8Q0wslV0mh5JqcH2wb5S9hWbg/s4032/Dudley%20Eucharist.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvf97WRNhHlm7kBbeisxgrqaERytBHKqOK-R48nEEmL3WirqpHAxWb34TAaEi17RPmzmBW1TenTnw31Bzlu3CRFB_X_na6whmU4aJPg7Jqr1j7Aga1nkuB6K9oy5JNgfYjT_zo7ZV082E3cQYcfA-mbOoJT8Q0wslV0mh5JqcH2wb5S9hWbg/s320/Dudley%20Eucharist.jpg" width="240" /></a></span></span></span></span></b></div><p><span style="font-size: medium;">It was a lovely memorial service for Dudley at St-Martin-in-the-Fields, London where Dudley was a regular worshiper and had joined other parishioners in reading and discussion groups. </span><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;">The Revd Richard Carter and Revd Sam Wells both spoke of Dudley who they knew well; Revd Sam Wells using the word ‘doughty’ to describe him. </span></span></p><p></p><div dir="auto" style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; color: #222222; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-decoration-color: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;">His brother Stephen spoke lovingly of Dudley and when I mentioned that I had been on the Brontë Society Council with his brother Stephen said that Dudley, while living at Carterhouse, had been banned from saying the name Brontë in the common room and would be fined if he did so. </span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; color: #222222; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-decoration-color: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><br /></span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; color: #222222; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-decoration-color: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;">Stephen has arranged a memorial for Dudley at <b>Blackburn Cathedral on May 15 at 4pm </b>which he hopes will be attended by many Bronte members</span></span></div><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: medium;"><span><span style="color: black;"><span style="background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll white;"> </span></span></span></span>

such ‘insane-sounding interjections’ yourself, you might easily breeze past these
lines without pause for thought. But if you’re
prone to this kind of private verbal seizure, your inner ears perk up. Your pulse quickens with self-recognition. You stop reading mid-page and assume a rapt
gaze as the colossal, self-mollifying thought wallops you: <b><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Charlotte Brontë was a blurter
too.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>How else could she have described
so precisely what this bizarre behaviour is like?</i></b><i><o:p></o:p></i></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="line-height: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-size: medium;">For most of my adult
life, I’ve been a secret blurter. It
happens when I’m engaged in some solitary mindless activity: filling the bath,
blow-drying my hair, washing the dishes, folding the laundry. Absurd words or phrases pop out of my mouth, many
of them unprintable, others just dumb:<o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal; text-indent: 36.0pt;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-size: medium;">‘I want

shut up! shut up!’<o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-size: medium;">Mornings, in the
kitchen, while ironing a shirt for my husband (who’s safely out of ear-shot in
the shower), I glance at the clock on the cooker and announce ‘It’s eight-o-five.’<o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-size: medium;">Sometimes it’s just a silly
sound, like a low-frequency vital sign: ‘Boopity-boo’.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-size: medium;">I figured out long ago
that the vocalization, whatever comes out, is meant to shout down a rising recollection
of something that makes me uncomfortable.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>But most of the time these automatic iterations arrive ahead of any conscious
thought; they swat the air before any memory has a chance to get there.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They are a symptom of anxiety and are
exacerbated by social interaction.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Any social
life I engage in – a transaction in a shop, a coffee hour after Sunday worship,
even a meeting of the venerable and benevolent Brontë Society, London and South
East Group – can trigger a spasm of nonsensical blathering as aftermath.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-size: medium;">For the most part, I’ve
rarely given my little secret much thought.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Then, a few years ago, I noticed a decided spike in the frequency of my blurts
and one or two sudden innovations in my blurt repertoire.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So I went online and tried to find out what
this curious verbal tic is.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Does it have
a name?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Does it progress to weirder
things?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>How goofy am I?</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-size: medium;">To my surprise, I found
no clear references to this phenomenon in any of the many mental health
webpages through which I sifted.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There’s
something called Tourettic Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That’s when obsessive intrusive thoughts give
rise to involuntary movements, noises, or utterances, as with Tourette
Syndrome.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But, like Caroline, I blurt only
when I know I’m alone or at least fairly secluded.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The words and phrases that escape me aren’t premeditated,
but they’re not exactly involuntary either.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I seem to be able to control the impulse without thinking about it and know
unconsciously when it’s safe to vociferate.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-size: medium;">And there’s something
called a ‘cringe attack’.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That seems
close, as it’s a wave of mortification brought on by reliving an embarrassing
moment.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But absurd verbal irruptions don’t
appear to be diagnostic of such paroxysms.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-size: medium;">I also learned about
studies of so-called ‘involuntary autobiographical memories’ (or IAMs), but
none of the researchers who write about these ‘mind pops’ seems interested in
the wacky words they sometimes prompt.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";">The most helpful
accounts I found came, not from medical authorities or clinical descriptions,
but from ordinary users of online Q&A sites and social anxiety support
groups.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The best thread began with a question

word/syllable or two. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If I remember an
embarrassing conversation, I tend to blurt out a random word of the
conversation (as in, I’m replaying the dialogue in my head but then, all of a
sudden, one of the words pops out of my mouth). <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If it happens while I’m reading, I tend to
blurt out one or two of the words that happen to be under my eyes at the

embarrassing or humiliating from my life – not for mild everyday kind of stuff.

embarrassing memories are any worse than the average Joe’s.)<o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 36.0pt; margin-right: 2.0cm; margin-top: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto;"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-ansi-language: EN; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;"><o:p><span style="font-size: medium;"> </span></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 36.0pt; margin-right: 2.0cm; margin-top: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto;"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-ansi-language: EN; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;"><span style="font-size: medium;">So what is this, do I have some kind of low-grade Tourette’s syndrome? <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Is there a name for this phenomenon? <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Does it happen to others, or is it unique to
me?</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";">It is in honour of

Alabaster, all elated to find that they were not alone and eager to relate
their experiences and share their ‘wince words’, as one contributor (yclept ‘yclipse’)
happily put it. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>People’s repertoires
were astonishingly similar to one another’s and to mine: predictably, there
were the expletives, but also the strange declarations of undying love and/or
hate, often directed at long forgotten ex-partners, but just as often offered
up to no one in particular.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Here is a florilegium

contribution was especially relevant to the question here investigated – viz. was
Charlotte Brontë a blurter?</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; text-indent: 36pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; text-indent: 36pt;">A literary-minded
poster known by the sobriquet ‘arcanecrowbar’ wrote:</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 36.0pt; margin-right: 2.0cm; margin-top: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 36.0pt; margin-right: 2.0cm; margin-top: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto;"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-size: medium;">An aside about this – a few years ago I was reading Dickens’ <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Bleak House</i> for the first time. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Somewhere in that novel (sorry I have no way
of finding the passage!) Dickens follows a minor character around for a while
and gives an <span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">exact</span> description
of this phenomenon – the guy has a memory of an acutely embarrassing event and
gets out of it by mumbling some nonsense phrase to himself.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-size: medium;">I have to say I’ve ransacked
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Bleak House</i> without finding any
character I’d spot for a proper blurter.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Mr Guppy is certainly a painfully awkward soul, and Mr Jarndyce has his ‘growlery’
where he goes when he’s in a foul mood, and Dickens depicts the latter lapsing
into <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">sotto voce</i> commentaries intelligible
only to himself, but neither character is ever observed, in an unguarded moment
alone, in the grip of a really good blurt fit. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Be that as it may (and I may have overlooked what
arcanecrowbar had in mind), the important point is this: whereas it’s easy to
imagine that Dickens, a noted social animal, wrote about human eccentricities
based on close observation of others, it’s almost impossible to resist the inference
that Charlotte Brontë gave Caroline Helstone this idiosyncrasy based on her own
personal experience.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As with everything
she knew about intimately, she worked it into her fiction.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-size: medium;">This is my bold thesis,
then: Caroline’s discourse in Chapter 12 of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Shirley</i>
constitutes compelling warrant for concluding that Charlotte Brontë was a
blurter.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-size: medium;">But why end the wild speculation
there?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This passage plants other fancies
in my brain.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Dare we take the next step
and conjecture that Charlotte Brontë once asked Constantine Heger for a lock of
his hair and that, forever after, the recollection of this show of hopeless devotion
sent her into throes of explosive blurts?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I think so.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-size: medium;">We know that Charlotte,
even though she found the courage to brave the wider world, was never
comfortable outside her closest circle of family and friends.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Like most people with social anxiety, she
probably imagined that she had behaved foolishly or said something stupid after
nearly every human contact, and she probably blurted over the least
encounter.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But her comportment over
Heger must have afforded her a generous store of blurt-worthy memories.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Never mind what she may have said to him
directly; if I had written some of those abject letters she sent him, I for one
would blurt for all I’m worth every time the post hit the floor.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-size: medium;">If it is extracting too
much from this passage to suppose that the specific detail of having asked an
object of romantic feeling for a lock of hair was drawn from life, then I
submit that this detail is the fictionalization of some similar Heger-related
indiscretion.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Such indiscretions, this
passage tells us, tormented Charlotte Brontë and goaded her to outbursts that
appalled her but probably also gave her fits of private giggles she shared with
no one – no one, that is, except for readers likewise afflicted who find in
Caroline’s words the confessions of a fellow-blurter.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal; text-indent: 36.0pt;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-size: medium;">So, what, I

</p><p class="MsoNormal"><i><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">A
new book shines the spotlight on the couple who recommended the Pensionnat
Heger to the Brontës and found Charlotte and Emily difficult guests at Sunday
lunches in their home in Brussels.</span></i></p><p>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">Until
their great-great-granddaughter Monica Kendall determined to throw light on
them, Evan and Eliza Jenkins were fairly shadowy figures in the Brontës’ story.
The few references to them in Brontë biographies leave a vague impression of a
couple who were pillars of the British community in Brussels, no doubt, and well-meaning
in their standing invitation to Charlotte and Emily to Sunday lunch at their
home, but … didn’t the sisters find them rather dull? Biographers seem to hint
at this, even though the information hitherto given on Mr and Mrs Jenkins is
too sparse for any clear picture of them to emerge. </span></p><p><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";"> </span>

yet their importance in the Brontës’ Brussels adventure is clear from the
letter in which Charlotte first broached the project to her Aunt Branwell.
Referring to her Yorkshire friend Martha Taylor, who was studying at the
Château de Koekelberg school in Brussels, Charlotte writes: </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">‘If I wrote to her [i.e. Martha], she,
with the assistance of Mrs. Jenkins, the wife of the British Consul, would be
able to secure me a cheap, decent residence and respectable protection.’</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">Evan
Jenkins was in fact the chaplain to the British embassy, not the consul.
Curiously, this initial confusion on Charlotte’s part, relatively minor in
itself, was just the first of the inaccuracies in the accounts handed down on
the Jenkins family – the ‘lies’ of Monica Kendall’s book title.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">One circumstance
about which there seems to be no doubt is that it was Eliza Jenkins who
recommended the Pensionnat Heger to the Brontës. Mrs Gaskell, who met her on a
visit to Brussels to research her <i>Life of Charlotte Brontë</i>, tells us
that the Pensionnat was recommended to Eliza by an Englishwoman at the Belgian
royal court, whose granddaughter was a pupil at the school. Eliza, tasked to
find a suitable school for Charlotte and Emily by Evan’s clergyman brother in
Yorkshire, an ex-colleague of Patrick Brontë’s, had enquired in vain until this
recommendation clinched the choice of Brussels just as the Brontës were considering
a school in Lille instead. Thus, Monica Kendall claims, ‘If it had not been for
Mrs Jenkins, Charlotte would never have gone to Brussels, never met M. Heger.
There would be no <i>Villette</i>, no <i>Jane Eyre</i>’.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">However
vague our previous information on the Jenkinses, the few anecdotes we have of their
contacts with Charlotte and Emily throw a vivid light on the sisters
themselves. We have Eliza Jenkins’ account of the Brontës as the visitors from
hell at Sunday lunches in the Jenkins household, as reported in Gaskell’s <i>Life</i>:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">Mrs. Jenkins told me that she used to ask
them to spend Sundays and holidays with her, until she found that they felt
more pain than pleasure from such visits. Emily hardly ever uttered more than a
monosyllable. Charlotte was sometimes excited sufficiently to speak eloquently
and well – on certain subjects; but before her tongue was thus loosened, she
had a habit of gradually wheeling round on her chair, so as almost to conceal
her face from the person to whom she was speaking.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">A
subsequent biographer, Mrs Chadwick, author of <i>In the Footsteps of the
Brontës</i>, also tells a story about the sisters’ taciturnity:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">‘The two sons of Mrs. Jenkins John and
Edward who were sent to the pensionnat to escort the Brontës when they were
invited to their home, declare that they were most shy and awkward, and
scarcely exchanged a word with them during the journey’. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">This and
subsequent versions of the ‘escorting’ story, which isn’t in Gaskell’s <i>Life</i>,
appear to have evolved through a process of Chinese whispers. An example is the
inclusion of Kendall’s great-grandfather John Jenkins, only seven years old at
the time, too young surely for escorting duties. Chadwick’s account, published
in 1914, suggests that she had it straight from the mouths of Edward and John,
and indeed that they were still living at the time of writing. Winifred Gérin, relaying
the story, seems to indicate that Chadwick got it directly from Mrs Jenkins. A
few dates provided by Kendall show this to be impossible. Mrs Chadwick was born
in 1861; she could not possibly have spoken to Eliza Jenkins (died 1864) or
Edward (died 1873) and is unlikely to have visited Brussels in time to speak to
John, who died in 1894. The true source of the tale was in fact a Brussels
resident who had it from Edward Jenkins.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">It’s
one of several hand-me-down stories repeated by biographers which Kendall, a book
editor used to querying and checking every detail, scrutinises and subjects to
‘the trial of common sense’, facts and logical deduction. But her quest for
Evan and Eliza Jenkins grew out of more that a scholarly wish to correct ‘fabrications’
and ‘sloppy copying’. <i>Lies and the Brontës</i> is also driven by her sense
that the Jenkinses have been ‘largely ignored’ and even disparaged by Brontë
biographers.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">Have
they simply been assumed to be too boring to be investigated? Gaskell hints at
this in her <i>Life</i> when she suggests that Charlotte found the
Wheelwrights, a family she made friends with in Brussels, more congenial than
the Jenkinses:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">There was another English family where
Charlotte soon became a welcome guest, and where, I suspect, she felt herself
more at her ease than … at Mrs. Jenkins’.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">The Sunday
lunch story doesn’t just show up the Brontës in a bad light; it gives the
impression that they didn’t find the Jenkinses worth talking to.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">At the
start of her research, Kendall, too, was afraid lest she should find her
forebears dull and hardly worth investigating. Had they been cultured and
interesting, their link with the Brontës would surely have been cherished – yet
Kendall stumbled on it by chance. She knew that generations of the family had
lived in Brussels, as testified by great-aunts’ albums. She also knew that the
Brontës had been in Brussels. But nobody in the family had told her about the
connection between the two, and she hadn’t read Gaskell’s <i>Life</i> or <i>Villette</i>.
It wasn’t until 2013 – curiously, just as she happened to be copy-editing a
monograph that included a chapter on <i>Villette</i> – that a cousin alerted
her to an article about the site of the Jenkinses’ house in the Brussels
municipality of Ixelles, posted by the Brussels Brontë Group.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">The
Brontë sisters had known her ancestors! The realisation was the starting point
of the quest which resulted seven years later in this amazing book. A quest
that took her to Brussels to visit the graves of Evan and Eliza and their sons
Edward and John of the escorting story, who eventually succeeded Evan as chaplain;
to Wales where Evan Jenkins was born the son of a poor tenant farmer, like
Patrick Brontë; to Scotland and the Netherlands on the tracks of Eliza Jenkins
née Jay, born in Rotterdam into a family of Scottish merchant traders; to Yorkshire
on the trail of Evan’s brother David, Patrick’s colleague at Dewsbury and
Hartshead in pre-Haworth days. It was David Jenkins who linked up the Brontës
with Evan and Eliza.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">The research
trail is fascinating in itself. For anyone interested in family history, the
notes alone tell an eloquent tale of riches unearthed in archives from Lambeth
Palace to Leuven. But Kendall’s pursuit of the Jenkinses was emotional as much
as scholarly. By the Jenkins graves, she felt ‘the impossible yearning to be
part of a family that might be happier than my own’ akin to the longing of Richard
Holmes, when writing his life of Shelley, to be part of the magic circle of
Shelley’s family. In <i>Footsteps</i> Holmes describes feeling like a tramp
knocking at the kitchen window, hoping to be invited in for supper. In Kendall’s
case the family she was researching was, of course, her own. By their graves at
the beginning of her adventure she wondered not just whether she would like
them, but whether <i>they</i> would approve of <i>her</i>. Would Evan and Eliza
prove to be the kind of people she’d want to join for Sunday lunch?</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">She
leaves no stone unturned in finding out, and the book certainly redresses the
lack of information hitherto available on the family. We are told so much, not
just about the Jenkinses but those whose lives touched theirs, that at times I had
a feeling of information overload, particularly in the first part of the book
before Evan’s and Eliza’s paths converge in Brussels. (Eliza’s father started a
school there where Evan, as well as officiating as chaplain at the Chapelle Royale,
taught before starting one of his own, which was carried on by subsequent
generations.)</span></p>

the rewards of the book far outweigh any feelings of <i>embarras de richesses</i>
and interest is maintained by the lively writing as well as the erudition. <i>Lies
and the Brontës</i> is packed with information, anecdotes and above all
personalities. A ‘spider’s web of connections’ between apparently disparate
lives constantly comes up with surprises, including many famous names.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">That there
are so many names of writers, apart from the Brontës, is one of the book’s
attractions. This despite the fact that the Jenkins family seems to have had
little interest in literature, one possible reason for their silence about the
Brontës – another may just have been a wish to avoid the attention of curiosity
hunters. (Whatever the reason, until Kendall came along no other member of the clan
had had anything to say about references to the family in Brontë biographies.)
As if in compensation, in <i>Lies and the Brontës</i> Kendall writes of her
sense of a ‘thrumming wire’ connecting some of the most celebrated writers of
the age through the family story. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">Byron
and Trollope, to take just two examples. The school started by Eliza’s father
was taken over by a clergyman called William Drury who’s a constant presence in
the book and was a larger-than-life presence in the British community in
Brussels. Drury had been at Harrow with Byron and wasn’t averse to basking in
reflected glory as ‘Byron’s playmate’. His school in Brussels was the very one
at which the 19-year-old Trollope did a stint as an assistant teacher when his
family fled to Belgium to escape their creditors. Rather like the Brontës, Trollope
took a job as a teacher to help pay for language classes:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">I must … learn German and French … and in
order that it might be accomplished without expense, I undertook the duties of
a classical usher to a school then kept by William Drury at Brussels. Mr. Drury
had been one of the masters at Harrow when I went there at seven years old, and
is now, after an interval of fifty-three years, even yet officiating as
clergyman at that place. To Brussels I went, and my heart still sinks within me
as I reflect that any one should have intrusted to me the tuition of thirty
boys … </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">Trollope
lasted just six weeks in the job before being rescued by the offer of a post
office clerkship.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">Another
literary link on that thrumming wire thrills us when a British resident called
E. Taylor, a member of the committee that offered Evan the chaplaincy of the
Chapelle Royale, turns out to be Edward Taylor of Bifrons in Kent, a man on
whom Jane Austen told her sister she had ‘doated’ as a teenager, praising his
‘beautiful dark eyes’. Like so many expats who ended up in Brussels, his
presence there seems to have had something to do with money difficulties; he
had given up his Kent country house. Apart from the Austen connection, it’s
exciting to learn he had a brother in England who was employed in high places …
but I don’t want to include too many spoilers.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";"></span></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPqR0oNeI4hXiVOCz4xRsBPCPbmAZ4lacYyIIkv3wROSOLrUIZ56WZKdbgaP7A6Yww28R4bcHxJaLm6A9zkoe2f-kw6hqiBTqw5NlNfHSuO2HHUOVcYWlxdet8s9j-G5MYbN34/s1110/Edward+Taylor.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1110" data-original-width="741" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPqR0oNeI4hXiVOCz4xRsBPCPbmAZ4lacYyIIkv3wROSOLrUIZ56WZKdbgaP7A6Yww28R4bcHxJaLm6A9zkoe2f-kw6hqiBTqw5NlNfHSuO2HHUOVcYWlxdet8s9j-G5MYbN34/w428-h640/Edward+Taylor.jpg" width="428" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Edward Taylor, the man whose 'beautiful brown eyes' were admired by Jane Austen and on whom she 'doated' as a teenager.</span><br /></td></tr></tbody></table><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";"> </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";"> </span><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">Literary
links apart, there are the connections with royal courts. A year or two before
Prince Albert’s marriage to Victoria, he and his brother Ernst turn up in
Brussels for a study stay; their English teacher is (who else!) Evan’s
colleague William Drury. Where Evan himself was concerned, Eliza sometimes
worried that her husband lacked ambition. ‘My spouse is very backwards in going
forwards’ she writes in a letter about the imminent arrival of Leopold of
Saxe-Coburg to take up the Belgian throne; she’s fretting about whether the
King will opt to attend Evan’s chapel or one of the other Protestant ones in
town. Her ambition must have been gratified when in 1835 Evan, a man born in
poverty who, like Patrick Brontë, was a sizar at Cambridge, was appointed
chaplain to Leopold I. It’s a thrill to find Evan, on a visit to London, carrying
letters from King Leopold to Victoria and Albert. How appropriate for a man
whose life is the connecting point for so many others in the book to be
employed as a messenger.</span>
</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">Like
Constantin Heger, for whom teaching Charlotte Brontë was just one episode in a
full life, Evan was a very busy man. He and his descendants were at the heart
of the British community in the Belgian capital. With schools and churches to
run and build (Kendall’s great-grandfather built an Anglican church in Ixelles)
the Jenkins dynasty’s failure to mention the Brontës in family annals no longer
seems so surprising.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">Kendall
has tirelessly tracked down sources for the Brussels background, digging in little-known
memoirs, including witness accounts of the 1830 Belgian revolution. The recollections
of Charles MacKay, for example. He was the future father of the novelist Marie
Corelli, attended Eliza’s father’s school in Brussels and was in the city when
the first stirrings of the revolution broke out. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">She is
equally tireless in digging out facts and sources in the part of the book that
deals with the Brontës’ time in Belgium in 1842-43. In this section she seems
to have been guided by Flaubert’s opinion that ‘When you write the biography of
a friend, you must do it as if you were taking <i>revenge</i> for him’, admitting
that ‘It’s partly true that other than curiosity there has been an element of
revenge in my research and writing’. Brontë biographers both dead and living are
savaged for inaccuracies (‘lies’) – not just those involving the Jenkinses.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">Did
the Brontës, like Lucy Snowe in <i>Villette</i>, really travel to Brussels in
1842 not by train but by coach, as claimed by Mrs Chadwick, Gérin and
subsequent biographers? Did Mr Jenkins, as also claimed by Chadwick, really accompany
Patrick Brontë and the two sisters to the Pensionnat Heger to effect the
introductions to Mme Heger? Did Mme Heger really accompany Charlotte to Ostend
when she left the Pensionnat for good in January 1844, as claimed by some?
Indeed, is it certain or even likely that Charlotte travelled back to England
from Ostend? Frequently-told stories about Charlotte and Emily’s Belgian stay are
examined and refuted.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">Much
of interest is added to our knowledge of the Brussels background. We share what
Kendall calls ‘the frisson of “only connect”’ when she identifies a
schoolfellow of the Taylor girls at the Château de Koekelberg, mentioned in a
letter that has often been cited, as a member of the Jenkins family. In
addition, she gives new information about the school’s headmistress, Catherine
Phelps. Intelligent speculations are offered on ways in which <i>Villette</i>
may have drawn on Charlotte’s observations of the Jenkins household, with
possible models suggested for the teenage Graham Bretton, the mature Dr John
Bretton, and the character of Mr Home.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><a name="_Hlk74494806"><i><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">Lies and the Brontës</span></i></a><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk74494806;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";"> casts the
net wide and encompasses much more than Evan and Eliza’s story, but they are at
its heart and the book is a testament that Kendall’s quest was </span></span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">worth the years of labour. The
Jenkinses may not have been literary-minded or interested in the Brontës’
novels, but they and their circle do deserve to be better known. By the time I
finished the book I, like Kendall, would have liked to be present at Sunday
lunch at the Jenkinses’ house in Ixelles, listening to the gossip about the expat
British community of which the Brontë sisters were briefly a part, as the <i>fiacres</i>
described in <i>Villette</i> rattled over the stony streets outside.</span></p>

It is pictured here when it was still open to the public. The building and its grounds are forever connected with Charlotte Brontë, who named it 'Briarmains' in her 1849 novel Shirley. The museum was, until it was finally closed in 2016 by Kirklees Council to save money, full of artefacts and exhibitions connected with Gomersal's radical feminist and author Mary Taylor, Charlotte's friend. It will now be completely refurbished and turned into a five-star, high-end luxury holiday home for commercial letting, and a venue for weddings.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">The campaign group Red House Heritage Group 'welcomes the investment' but is also 'open-minded about the council's new approach'.You can read a full report at </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><a href="https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/news/west-yorkshire-news/heritage-campaigners-give-cautious-welcome-20331456">https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/news/west-yorkshire-news/heritage-campaigners-give-cautious-welcome-20331456</a></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Your comments are welcome. </span><br /></p><p><br /></p><div class="blogger-post-footer">Postings on the Brontë Parsonage Blog reflect the views of the individual writers.

Published with immediate and universal success in 2008, shortly before Shaffer's death, it deals with an interesting exchange of letters that took place after the mid-1940s between a writer and some people residing on the island of Guernsey and their progressive and sincere friendship but above all it is a faithful and touching account of the precarious conditions in which the inhabitants of that Channel Island had to live during and after the Second World War.</p><p class="p3" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /></p><p class="p3" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">The peculiarity of the novel, also present in the beautiful film that was made from it in 2018, is the recurring reference to the Brontë sisters and their works, with particular regard to Anne and her personality. Already from the first pages of the book we learn that Juliet Ashton, the protagonist, has edited and published a hypothetical biography of Anne because she is considered by her to be as clever as Charlotte and Emily for ability and imagination, despite the fact that when the action takes place the third Brontë was almost completely unknown. Even if this book is unsuccessful, the young writer continues to propose it in her round of presentations. One of Juliet's island correspondents afterwards lingers to talk about the 'oddities' of the Brontës’ father and their depraved brother, immensely appreciating the work of Emily and <i>Jane Eyre</i> that she knows almost by heart, while towards the end it is the same Juliet to speculate that Anne may have had a possibly irascible and grumpy temperament so much different from what is commonly thought.</p><p class="p3" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /></p><p class="p3" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">In the film, on the other hand, the reference to the Brontës and Anne is proposed in a different way: the protagonist (played by actress Lily James) finds herself talking about her biography on the same evening of her arrival in Guernsey, vehemently supporting the avant-garde ideas of Anne in the <i>Tenant of Wildfell Hall.</i> She quickly succeeds in enlightening the minds of the listeners who instead knew only what Jane Eyre claims when she declares to Rochester that she is free and equal to him.</p><p class="p3" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /></p><p class="p3" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">A very interesting clue, therefore, which makes both this book and the film of the same complicated title particularly welcome to all Brontë lovers.</p><p class="p4" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><br /></p><p class="p2" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: start;"><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p><p class="p6" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 14px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 16px; text-align: start;"><br /></p></div><p><br /></p><div class="blogger-post-footer">Postings on the Brontë Parsonage Blog reflect the views of the individual writers.

<span lang="NL" style="font-family: Verdana; line-height: 25.68px;"><b>A fascinating dive into the Brontë world!</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri; line-height: 15.6933px; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri; line-height: 15.6933px; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="NL" style="font-family: Verdana; line-height: 17.12px;">In these weird Corona times when travelling is not advisable/not recommended/not desired or not possible, I came across this book by Geoff and Christine Taylor.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri; line-height: 15.6933px; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana;">The book, which is lavishly illustrated with photographs, was a labour of love. Its authors have lived near Haworth for almost forty years and the book grew out of their trips to Brontë places in the U.K., Ireland and Belgium, with Chris, a keen amateur photographer and artist, taking the photographs. There are many photos of Brussels.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 15.6933px; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 15.6933px; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;"></span><span lang="NL" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri; line-height: 15.6933px; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="NL" style="font-family: Verdana; line-height: 17.12px;">The beautiful front cover brings you straight to Top Withins and the Haworth moors, and on the back cover it says: 'The Brontë children lived tragically short lives but they have left a wonderful legacy not only with their novels and poems but in the descriptions of the places they lived, loved and experienced.' The book invites you to discover these locations and perhaps, if Corona allows for it, visit these locations yourself.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri; line-height: 15.6933px; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="NL" style="font-family: Verdana; line-height: 17.12px;">It is not a book that you just READ, it is book that you fully EXPERIENCE. It allows you to travel from your own home to Belgium, to London, to Ireland, to Haworth, to Scotland, to Cornwall, to Wales and to so many more Brontë-related places all in one day, if you wish. In a year when there is no AGM in Haworth, no annual holidays to Ireland (our normal holiday destination), no Anne Brontë bicentenary conference in Scarborough, and even no events of our Brussels Brontë Group in Brussels, this book was for me a wonderful revelation and a splendid way to travel around Brontë-related places.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri; line-height: 15.6933px; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="NL" style="font-family: Verdana; line-height: 17.12px;">It is a journey in images and poetry with explanatory texts from the authors. It is a perfect way to travel in Corona times and be near the Brontës without setting a foot outside. The journey is made chronologically and starts in Cornwall (with Maria and Elizabeth Branwell) and in County Down, Northern Ireland (with Rev. Patrick Brontë) and travels through time to visit all other places that are associated in some way with the Brontë family. The beautiful photographs are accompanied by explanatory texts and Brontë poems. You do not have to follow the chronological route, if you do not want to. You can start anywhere in the book, go back and forth as much as you like and discover, or revisit, Brontë places.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri; line-height: 15.6933px; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="NL" style="font-family: Verdana; line-height: 17.12px;">I have gone through this book many times now in all sorts of directions, revisiting the places that I have seen already (and enjoyed seeing again) and discovering places that I have wanted to visit for ages, but had not succeeded in doing up to now.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri; line-height: 15.6933px; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="NL" style="font-family: Verdana; line-height: 17.12px;">It is the perfect substitute for travelling to Brontë places when you cannot travel yourself. I enjoyed it tremendously, and I will continue to enjoy it! It is a real treasure of a book. To be recommended…..</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">In order to help Brontë people everywhere while away the hours during the present Crisis, when we are frustratingly 'confined to barracks', I have written a set of twelve Bronte Quizzes, each of thirty marks, which are being posted fortnightly on <span style="font-weight: bold;">Bronte Blog. </span>He has called the series 'Keeping the Flame Alive', which is of course the title of Val Wiseman's classic Bronte-themed CD, and seems rather appropriate right now!</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Browsing through the pages of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Crystal Bucket</i> by Clive James, last read a long time ago
(published 1981), I came across his scathing newspaper review of the 1978 BBC
mini-series version of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Wuthering Heights</i>.
He described it as ‘the blithering pits’. Could it have been that bad? I found
that the series was in five fifty-minute episodes directed by Peter Hammond,
with a screenplay jointly written by David Snodin and Hugh Leonard and a
musical score by Carl Davis. I bought the DVD version.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #333333;">Ken Hutchison plays Heathcliff , Kay Adshead is Catherine
Earnshaw. A number of child actors perform, with two assigned to the young
Heathcliff. In a display of enthusiastic ‘fidelity’, there is an attempt to
cover every single chapter of the novel, but the result inspired a mixture of admiration and ridicule in spite of the relative accuracy of its character representations,
and some false accusations that the BBC had commissioned the series mainly because of
the great success of Kate Bush’s famous song earlier in the same year. It took more than a few months to put together, of course.</span><span style="color: #333333; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 150%;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The series is certainly not without merit. Clive James’s remarks possibly
refer to the hyperbolically histrionic Kay Adshead as Catherine, to clumsy
special effects, and a few inept attempts at melodrama, but Ken Hutchinson
plays Heathcliff as brutal, cruel and devilish 'as Emily Brontë conceived of
him', at least in the first few episodes. I was quite impressed. He is
an interesting contrast to the pin-up stars who in other versions have been
cast in the part, and there is hardly any obeisance to the myth of transcendental
romance created by the Wiliam Wyler version of the novel in 1939, unless a couple of scenes on Penistone Crag filmed at Ponden Kirk count as parallels to Laurence Olivier and Merle Oberon on a rock formation somewhere near Hollywood.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Carl Davis, who had won much praise for the music composed for <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The World at War</i> (ITV, 1973 – 74),
produced a superb score. True to the novel, and to C P Sanger's calculations, Edgar and Isabella first appear as
children of about ten years old through the windows of the Grange, where they
pull at a small dog, and Catherine and Heathcliff are shown riding ponies and
playing by a beck on the moors, but some of their actions are awkward, for
example when Heathcliff shrieks in a temper after Catherine, back from the
Grange, calls him dirty. It's easy to go over the top when adapting <i>Wuthering Heights</i>, which is already over the top.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">There is an interesting dramatic moment when Nelly discovers the
generally neglected Hareton playing with his father’s gun and takes it away
from him, and another soon afterwards when the drunken Hindley, as in the
novel, holds him over the edge of a balcony, to be caught by Heathcliff. How
many adaptations include that? When he is a little older, Hindley is seen beating Hareton viciously
with a stick. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The stress on one of the novel’s strong themes - <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>of child neglect and abuse - is significant,
because of the way most feature film adaptations gloss over or minimize it. The
presumed psychological effects of the abuse are also included: Heathcliff hangs
Isabella’s spaniel, to be rescued by Nelly, and Hareton is seen preparing to hang puppies
soon afterwards in the same episode, half-grown puppies. The domestic violence inflicted upon poor Isabella by Heathcliff is shown briefly but shockingly as he swings a heavy chain at her.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The final two episodes covering the second generation are straggly,
lacking dramatic impact, I guess partly because of the problem of constantly
visualizing scenes of violence, the actors seeming to tire, and partly because
the fixed desire for as much fidelity as can be crammed into four hours gives
the impression that the narrative is being covered in full out of a kind of
duty. Fidelity definitely has its limits.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It’s worth watching, though, if you have the
patience, if only because Ken Hutchison very nearly gets there with his Heathcliff.

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
Many of you already know the story of how Sarah and I met, but I shall
tell it again, because it showed me so clearly what an extraordinary person she
was.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>It was thirty years ago,
one morning in June.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We were in
Oxenhope, having walked a couple of miles from Haworth on a <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk534984755">Brontë</a> Society guided walk, both on our own, and both
a little bored.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Sarah asked me what I
planned to do later that day, and I said I wanted to walk to Ponden Kirk.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>‘So do I’, she replied, ‘Shall we go?’<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I didn’t like to say that what I’d had in
mind was to take my car as far as I could, just walking the last bit.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So, off we set towards Ponden.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
At Stanbury, after a couple more miles of rather hilly
walking, we stopped at the ‘Wuthering Heights’ pub for lunch and Sarah noticed
that I was wet with perspiration.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In her
rather penetrating American voice, she asked me, ‘Are you menopausal?’ Coming
from someone I’d only just met, this was rather startling, but, like most other
people, I quickly learned to value that straightforwardness.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With Sarah, you didn’t get many euphemisms,
but neither did you get anything devious or underhand. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
On that memorable day, we trudged steadily upwards but
on the heights of Ponden Kirk we met one of those sudden storms which, even in
June, in that landscape, bring searing wind and horizontal rain.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We sheltered for a while in a barn with about
a hundred sheep, then staggered down the hill to Ponden Hall, where Brenda
Taylor, bless her, rescued us with a warm fire, hot tea and a lift back to
Haworth.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
All this time, Sarah was talking.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She believed that Emily Bronte could not have
written <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Wuthering Heights</i> without equivalent
personal experience.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She had noticed
that Emily’s poetry was suddenly full of grief at a particular date, and she
had searched local records until she found what she thought was the cause – a boy
called Robert Clayton, born within weeks of Emily, who lived a stone’s throw
from where we had been walking that day, and who died when they were both
eighteen and just as the grieving poems began. I listened like the wedding
guest in ‘The Ancient Mariner’. Even though <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">I
</i>had never thought it important to trace the biographical sources of
fiction, the detail of Sarah’s research had me in thrall.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
During that day I got to know the Sarah I grew to
love.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She was impetuous, shrewd, entertaining,
resourceful and courageous.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She had a
lively imagination. Above all she was tenacious of her purpose.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She had the enthusiasm of a fanatic combined,
most unusually, with a scholar’s respect for logic and evidence.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Many people before had made a guess at a
lover for Emily, but none had made such an effort to substantiate their theory.
For the next fifteen years Sarah searched for the documentary evidence which
would prove a connection between Emily Bronte and Robert Clayton.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She never found it – if his family were
illiterate the evidence may never have existed.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>But she would not publish as ‘history’ what she could not prove with
evidence.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Instead she wrote up her
theory as a fiction which you probably know – <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Emily’s Journal</i>, published in 2006.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>It happens that <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk535140064">Brontë</a> ‘spin-offs’ are my
own area of expertise and I can confirm that Sarah’s fiction is unique in its
intricate and accurate negotiation of ‘known facts’.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Emily Bronte may or may not have known Robert
Clayton, but there are no impossible conjectures in Sarah’s story.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
Sarah’s dogged pursuit of evidence may not have
yielded the truth about Robert Clayton, but it did throw light in other areas. Since
that day, she has published no fewer than twelve scholarly papers in <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk534985405"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Brontë Studies</i></a>,
each offering new evidence on problems in Brontë biography, some of which had
puzzled researchers since the nineteenth century. In November of last year she
was still working on a final paper, entitled ‘What Do We Know About Emily Jane?’.
It will appear in <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk534984779"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Brontë
Studies</i> </a>in April.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
Sarah’s research involved travelling, searching in
dusty archives, land registers and church records, but she also loved to engage
with other people. Some of my best memories are those Brontë weekends when,
with a ‘gang’ of like-minded people, we would sit round Brenda’s big table at
Ponden and talk, and talk, and talk.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
Researching, moreover, was not Sarah’s only <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk534984865">Brontë</a> activity.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>As a member of the Brontë Society, she wanted to make things
happen.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>From 2008 until 2015 she was the
Society’s Honorary Publications and Conference Secretary, a position she used
to introduce many innovations.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She
oversaw the transfer of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Brontë Studies</i>
from one publisher to another, significantly improving the status of its
editors.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She set up the Society’s
Literary Competitions, attracting distinguished judges and insisting that the
prize-winning entries were published. Her pushing for a publication to mark
Charlotte Bronte’s bicentenary bore fruit as <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Celebrating Charlotte</i>, the splendid volume edited by Christine
Alexander and Sara Pearson.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Above all Sarah
transformed the Society’s three-yearly conferences from fairly modest gatherings,
mainly of members, into international events attracting new participants from
throughout the world.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With Sally
McDonald, she made a huge success of the 2011 conference on ‘The Brontës and
the King James Bible’, held here in Cambridge, and the 2014 Warwick conference
on ‘The <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk534985442">Brontë</a>s and the Condition of England’. She brimmed
over not only with ideas but with a vibrant energy which carried them through
to the smallest details. It was sad, therefore, that increasing ill health
forced her to relinquish final control over the 2016 bicentenary conference on
‘Charlotte Brontë and the Business of a Woman’s Life’, which was held, as she
wished, at the Midland Hotel in Manchester. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
Susan Aykroyd, the Vice-Chair of the Brontë Society’s
Council, is here today in a formal capacity to recognise Sarah’s contribution
to the Society. Sarah was pushy and obstinate, but she got things done, and very
many people here today have reason to know that behind that sometimes abrasive
manner lay immense generosity and personal kindness. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
For me, Sarah became a close companion, even though
mostly by way of telephone and email.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Very
few days went by without our consulting about plans, problems and discoveries.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She was almost the only person with whom I
exchanged work in progress. She was a good writer, unfailingly lucid and
sensible. I am only now beginning to realise how much I relied on her always
being there, ready to talk things through, rational and well-informed, but also
animated, and predisposed to be on my side, as a good friend should be.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For me, she was not just a good friend, but a
great friend, and I shall miss her more than I can say.<o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">In
September 2018 news was given in the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Brontë
Society Gazette</i> of the recent successful finding of a pencil drawing by Emily
Brontë in Dallas, reported by email. To announce the news Sarah Laycock, the
curator of the Brontë Parsonage Museum, who after the necessary checks to
ensure the authenticity of the object in question and with the opinion of
experts such as Ann Dinsdale and Jane Sellars, contributed with many
difficulties to the transport of the drawing from America to the UK and its
restoration. It was then displayed in the bicentennial year of the birth of
Emily in the museum to be admired by visitors from all over the world.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 0cm;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">The
design in question is entitled 'Ancona' and is signed 'E.J.Brontë 1835', as
usual for the author and the sisters on the sidelines of all their figurative
and literary works. It represents the Arch of Trajan, an important monument of
Roman origin located in the Italian city of Ancona near the port and close to
the hill where the Duomo of S.Ciriaco stands.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 0cm;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">One
wonders how and why Emily Brontë wanted to reproduce with her own pencil a
monument she had clearly never seen, located in a place that she could not even
imagine visiting. In fact, the four Brontës especially in their youth often
copied images from books and prints and delighted in building stories around
them with unparalleled imagination. Many of their artistic products, from the
hands of Charlotte, the sisters as well as Branwell, are very accurate copies
of illustrations taken from books they possessed or borrowed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Emily
copied her drawing entitled 'Ancona' from the print contained in the book <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Life and works of Lord Byron</i> by John
Murray, a grandiose work articulated in several volumes and published in 1833.
The print was by a certain Edward Francis Finden and reproduced a drawing of
Samuel Prout (1783-1852), at the time one of the main masters of watercolors
depicting architectural monuments. Since he had the opportunity to stay in
various European countries including Italy, he painted various sketches of the
most important monuments he had admired in his travels.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">The
Arch of Trajan in Ancona dates back to 114-115 AD, and it is named after the
Roman emperor who built it. It was an example of gratitude for the man who had given
the Doric city a port, thus allowing it an important commercial life on the
Adriatic and to the east. The English essayist Joseph Addison (1701) spoke of
the Triumphal Arch of Ancona, built in honor of Trajan, located near the sea in
white marble and exposed to winds and sea air.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Why
did Emily choose to reproduce the drawing from this print? Was she attracted by
the imposing arch or by the fact that it was a tangible proof of the greatness
of the ancient Romans? Would she have liked to see it in person?<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Analyzing
at the same time the drawing of Emily and the print of Finden taken from Prout
I can immediately notice the almost complete elimination of the crowd of people
walking near the Roman monument. Emily thus emphasizes the Arch which, by
itself stands out in the centre of the image appearing closer to the observer
than it is in the drawing reproduced in print. For this purpose, the details of
the hill with the cathedral beyond the Arch, well outlined in the press, are
almost absent in Emily’s drawing. I even hypothesize that Emily's interest in
Ancona finds an echo in the name 'Alcona', one of the four provinces of the
fantastic kingdom of Gondal she created, whose queen is A.G.A., otherwise known
as Rosina from Alcona, as Fannie Ratchford stated.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Since
I was born just in Ancona and although I have not lived there except for the
first six years of my life, I am still very attached to my hometown of which I
have a vivid memory. Often as a child I found myself walking with my father
right under the Arch of Trajan, without even imagining that a few years later I
would have been fascinated by the English literary family to whom I have dedicated
myself for a lifetime. Learning today that my Emily reproduced with such
alacrity a very important monument of Ancona from a print found in nineteenth
century England produces in me great enthusiasm. And it naturally leads me to
meditate on the curious coincidence that binds me further to this unpredictable
author so dear to me.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Beethoven’s <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Appassionata</i> when she had
the privilege of sitting at the cabinet piano. Hennessy deals with the
extraordinary restoration of this fragile, long-neglected instrument at the
beginning of the book, part of a section entitled ‘Musical and Cultural
Influences’. It is now one of the first items a visitor encounters upon
entering the Parsonage. Financed by a generous American Brontë Society member, Virginia
Esson, in 2008, Forrest spent a couple of years researching, removing accumulated
detritus and sorting out what could remain and what would have to be replaced before
it could be played again.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<h4 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><b><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "verdana";">It represents the sometimes neglected fact <span style="color: black;">that the Brontës lived in a musical household, and that
music significantly affected their lives and the subject matter of their literature.
A cabinet piano is present at Thornfield in Charlotte Brontë’s <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Jane Eyre</i>, for example, enabling </span></span><span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: "verdana";">Adèle to have lessons on it from Jane, who learned
how to play at Lowood, which can’t have been simply a place of burnt porridge,
stool-standing and hypocritical evangelicals. Branwell played the flute and was
rather good with church organs, inviting the thought that he should have taken
up music rather than oil painting. Anne Brontë wrote a poem entitled ‘Music on
Christmas Morning’ with an opening line which begins, ‘Music I love…’ </span></b></span></span></h4>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana";"><br /></span></span>
</span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana";">Patrick Brontë believed, with John
Wesley, that music should enhance Christian worship. Piano-playing was a lot
more than a ladylike accomplishment at the Parsonage, especially for Emily
Brontë, which is made clear by Hennessy, covering matters which have been
either downplayed by previous commentators or omitted because of lack of
available evidence.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: "verdana";"><span style="font-size: large;">He has found plenty of evidence,
much of it convincing, some of it to be found scattered around in commentaries
over the last century or so and some of it new. Circumstantial evidence is
given on many occasions, for example when he focuses on Emily’s nine months in
Brussels at the Pensionnat, often treated cursorily because the city, and
characters inspired by Constantin Heger, do not crop up in <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Wuthering Heights</i>. Of course, Emily was terribly homesick, but the
time she spent there was, he argues, ‘of considerable importance to her
creative development’. He draws attention to her study of French and German
there, particularly German, and her early encounters with German Romantic
literature through reading <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Blackwood’s
Magazine</i> back in Haworth. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: "verdana";"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: "verdana";"><span style="font-size: large;">She probably read macabre, gothic tales by E.T.A
Hoffman*, the author who inspired so many writers and musicians, like
Tchaikovsky (<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Nutcracker Suite</i>) and
Offenbach (<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Les Contes d’Hoffman</i>). In
Brussels in 1842 and shortly after her return to Haworth, Emily ‘probably came
to know something of Beethoven, at least some of) his music, and very possibly
be influenced by it’. Hennessy has documented the scores connected with her,
and speculates on the sonatas which she may have played at the Parsonage. Did
she contribute to the deterioration of a cabinet piano which could not hold up
against Romantic frenzy?<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: "verdana";"><span style="font-size: large;">It is certainly an enticing idea
that Beethoven, and his sonatas like the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Apassionata
</i>(No. 23 in F minor, Op. 57) was a significant influence on <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Wuthering Heights</i>. Hennessy spends
plenty of time on the history and character of the composer, and of course his
music, linking him to Emily and investigating possibilities. Interestingly, he
compares the initial reactions of critics to first performances with what
critics said about <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Wuthering Heights</i>
when it first appeared. One pundit in Leipzig, writing about the finale of the
second symphony, described it as ‘a gross enormity, an immense wounded snake,
unwilling to die, but writhing in its last agonies, and bleeding to death’. The
Scottish writer Peter Bayne described Wuthering Heights as ‘unquestionably and
irredeemably monstrous’, part of ‘the horror school of fiction’. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: "verdana";"><span style="font-size: large;">Both Ludwig and Emily knew how to
make people feel unnerved and uncomfortable, one of the reasons that they both
live on triumphantly. ‘Nature’ and the outdoors was the motive force for both,
as for other Romantics. Their treatments of it are similar, provoking a kind of
bracing discomfort in the listener, or a reader. Beethoven’s sixth symphony is
misleadingly entitled (by himself) as <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Pastoral</i>,
but it is not just about ‘prettified shepherds’ (as Berlioz commented) just as <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Wuthering Heights</i> is not just about a
romantic relationship set in beautiful heritage landscapes, as most film-makers
used to think. Hennessy sets out his analysis of the connection between the two
at length in the first part of the book, his discourse culminating in the
chapter ‘Emily Brontë’s Musicality’, in which he looks scores in general and
references to musical performance in the Brontës’ works. The bulk of the book,
‘Music Scores Owned by the Brontë Family’ is then made up of the
unprecedentedly detailed attention he gives to a large number of scores. </span></span></div>

<span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: "verdana";"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: large;">Nothing seems to escape him, including small finger marks and ink spots. He is in
the top league of musical detectives. </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Ann Dinsdale, Principal Curator, and Jane Sellars, a former Director, talked us through highlights in the Museum’s history. Ann Dinsdale is the author of numerous books including <i>At Home with the Brontës: The History of Haworth Parsonage & Its Occupants</i> and <i>The Brontës at Haworth</i>.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Saturday, the day of the Society’s AGM, is always packed with events. The first of these was a lecture on <i>The Eccentricities of ‘Woman’s Fantasy’… and Heathcliff</i> by Carol Dyhouse, a social history professor from the University of Sussex. Among other questions she looked at why Heathcliff is so often seen as a romantic hero and how far, if at all, this can be attributed to the novel itself as opposed to reinventions in screen versions of the book.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-size: 15.4px; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">From the Gothic heroes of the Brontës’ novels and women’s fantasies to a sermon in the church where their father preached: the Brontë Society weekend certainly offers variety and a range of experiences. On Saturday morning – another tradition of the weekend – was a church service, led by the current Rector of Haworth, dedicated to the Brontës in the (rebuilt) church of St Michaels & All Angels. After lunch it was time for the Society’s AGM. The Society currently has around 1,800 members and employs over 40 staff at the Museum, which has just made a successful bid for significant Arts Council Funding as a National Portfolio Organisation. Possible future projects were discussed, for example the idea of turning a Victorian underground reservoir in Haworth into a centre for women’s writing. The perennial question of when the Museum is to build toilets for visitors also came up – when doesn’t it! At present visitors have to use the ones in the car park, threatened with closure.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Sunday was also a busy day. As usual, the museum opened at 9 a.m. for a private viewing by members. A highlight, continuing from last year which was Branwell Brontë’s bicentenary, is the recreation of Branwell’s bedroom, curated by creative partner Simon Armitage in collaboration with museum staff and the production team of the film <i>To Walk Invisible</i>. The installation, supposed to present the room as it might have been in the late 1830s when Branwell had ambitions to be an artist, features an unmade bed and artworks and other objects scattered in disorder.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-GB">The morning programme consisted of Brontë Treasures (a private viewing in the Parsonage library of treasures in the Museum collection) and a talk by me on Charlotte Brontë’s legacy in Belgium, the subject of my new book </span><i><span lang="EN-GB" style="line-height: 16.478px;">Through Belgian Eyes.</span></i><span lang="EN-GB"> Thus our group and its work were well represented at Haworth this year.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After lunch more energetic members joined a guided walk across the moors to Ponden Kirk, the rocky outcrop close to Top Withens supposedly the inspiration for Penistone Crag in <i>Wuthering Heights</i>. For those who didn’t feel up to this 9-mile walk there was a screening of the 1992 version of the novel with Ralph Fiennes and Juliet Binoche.

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-size: 15.4px; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The closing event was an excursion to Halifax on the Monday. After a tour of the Piece Hall, there was a visit to Halifax Minster and the former Holy Trinity Church to view sculptures by Branwell Brontë’s great friend Joseph Leyland. David Glover, President of Halifax Antiquarian Society, gave us a talk on Leyland’s life. Over a splendid tea at Holdsworth House Hotel, he gave another talk on Law Hill School near Halifax, the story of Jack Sharp, a member of a local family who may have inspired the character of Heathcliff, and High Sunderland Hall, a building often cited as a possible inspiration for Wuthering Heights.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
