I remember Miss Brontë's shiver at recalling the pang she felt when, after having searched in the little hollows and sheltered crevices of the moors for a lingering spray of heather - just one spray, however withered - to take in to Emily, she saw that the flower was not recognised by the dim and indifferent eyes. (Elizabeth Gaskell, The Life of Charlotte Brontë, ch. XVI)This anecdote lends its name to the so-called Purple Heather School which is given to firm believers in the Brontë myth. While it is true that it seems somewhat unlikely, it is still poetic and symbolic.
So sad. Thank you for sharing this. I'm a very new fan of E. Bronte. I guess se'd have liked that, if not all the chatter. :-)
