Emily Bronte FROM THE PUBLISHER
The power and reputation of Wuthering Heights has tended to eclipse Bronte's remarkable poetic output as well as her stunning French essays penned during six months in 1842. Steve Vine's original study Emily Bronte brings these neglected aspects of her work back into view, relating them to the turbulent energies of Wuthering Heights while also paying close attention to Bronte's autobiographical "diary papers," paintings, and drawings.

Examines in turn Brontë's life, her strategies for self-invention through the imaginary world of Gondal, her struggle with patriarchal literary tradition in her poetry and drawings, her critique of Victorian mores in her French essays, Wuthering Heights as a radical text, and the critical reception of her work.
