Description
The maternal legacy of the Brontë family is often overlooked in favour of their literary achievements. This new study explores the important role that Cornwall played in shaping their lives and work. Born into a Cornish family, Maria and Elizabeth Brontë drew inspiration from the region's rich cultural heritage. Their mother's family, with its connections to journalists, travellers, poets, and published academics, had a profound impact on their daily routines and creative pursuits. This book delves into the everyday life of the Brontës in Cornwall, revealing the ways in which their Cornish kin helped shape their capabilities, temperament, and literary concerns. Through an illustrated study, this book brings to light the often-overlooked maternal legacy of the Brontë family, providing a fresh perspective on the creative evolution of these iconic writers.
