A recent article and a dissertation:
She Walks in Haworth-A Study of Themes in Emily Brontë’s Poetry

International Journal of Higher Education Teaching Theory,  Vol.2 No.1 2021 153

As one of the most distinguished writers in the 19th century, Emily Bronte, the author of Wuthering Heights started to enjoy the reputation as one of the most  important British poetesses since the 20th century. The thesis attempts to study on the themes of Emily Brontë’s poems based on the latest development of the study of Emily Brontë and her works

This dissertation analyses the novel so as to find instances of rivalry between the author and her siblings, and samples of Emily Brontë's private life, as well as important landscape and historical moments which may have influenced her work. The formulated hypothesis was that as Emily Brontë's life was filled with tragic moments even since her childhood, the process of writing a novel may have helped her find a healing and escaping scene away from her gruesome world. This study illustrates this conflict through the characters, and, also, through one of the dearest aspects in Emily's life, the moors.
