A digital alert for today, August 23:
Yorkshire Festival of Story
Anne Brontë: Amid the Brave and Strong
Sunday 23rd August @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
This event will take place on Crowdcast
Where does the truth lie with Anne Brontë?
She has always had her devoted fans. But the facts are that she has never approached the iconic status of her older sisters, Charlotte and Emily. Critics have often dismissed her work for lacking the spark of genius of her sisters.
In this year of Anne’s bicentenary, the Brontë Parsonage Museum is taking a fresh look at Anne and her achievements, and the reasons for her brave and unconventional choice of subject matter.
Sue Newby from the Brontë Parsonage Museum will be live exploring these ideas with you, and exploring why now is perhaps the time for Anne’s legacy to be truly understood and appreciated.
Your questions are welcome! You will have the opportunity to ask questions of Sue Newby during this live event.
