He did better than the man who bids fair to be the most famous English railway clerk – Branwell Brontë, brother of the literary sisters who lived at Haworth.In October 1840 Branwell was taken on by the Manchester and Leeds Railway as an assistant clerk in charge at Sowerby Bridge station, near Halifax, on £75 a yar.Within a year he was promoted to clerk in charge at Luddendenfoot station, on £130. But in 1842 he was sacked due to a deficit in the counts of £11-1s-7d (£11.19). The money was probably stolen by the porter, Watson, who was left in charge while boozy Branwell went drinking. The deficit was attributed to incompetence and the missing sum deducted from his salary. But that didn’t save his job, and he had no union to help him. (Paul Routledge)
Wuthering HeightsBy Emily Brontë (1847) + Kate Bush (1978)By rights of course, the lyrics for Kate Bush’s 1978 chart-topper Wuthering Heights should go: “Heathcliff, it's me, I'm Cathy/ You remember: that stuck up cow who said she loved you but you weren’t rich enough to marry?/ And then to rub yer fucking nose in it, I married yer arch enemy Edgar?/ Yeah, that Cathy/ Anyway, I’m dead now but I thought I’d come back and ruin your life some more/ Fancy it?” Etc.But no. Instead it’s all ballet shoes and bullshit warbling and, somehow, the moors are described as “wily”. Wily, FFS!*shakes fist* “Why you wily moors!”A loada sixth form am-dram nonsense.The book’s pretty good though, from what I remember. (Scott Rowley)
However, she gives us the glorious piercing quality of Edith Piaf, in excellent French, with ‘Non, je ne regrette rien’ and also nails Kate Bush’s distinctive vocals in both ‘Wuthering Heights’ and ‘Running Up That Hill’. (Suzannah Conway)
So here’s the remarkable things about Swift. She appropriates way more than Shakespeare in her syntax, sampling the literary scales of F Scott Fitzgerald, Emily Dickinson, Daphne du Maurier, Emily Brontë, Jane Austen, William Wordsworth, Ernest Hemingway, Robert Browning and more. (Stephen Short)
Der Film handel von Emily Brontë, eine Rebellin und Außenseiterin, die ihre innere Stimme findet und den literarischen Klassiker Wuthering Heights schreibt. Der Film erforscht die Beziehungen, die sie inspirierte - die leidenschaftliche Schwesternschaft mit Charlotte und Anne, die verbotene Liebe zu Weightman und ihre Fürsorge für ihren Bruder.

Almudena Cruz: Entonces al lector medio le faltan herramientas.C.D.: Le falta leer (risas). El problema es que si no lees sino youtubers o Cincuenta sombras de Grey, por poner un ejemplo, piensas que la literatura es eso. Yo recuerdo siempre a Corín Tellado y a Marcial Lafuente Estefanía. Tienen el gran mérito de hacer que la gente lea pero sin quedarse solo en sus novelas. La gente de aquella época, poco a poco, también iba buscando otras cosas y llegaba a Cumbres Borrascosas, por citar una novela. Hacían lectores. (Translation)
Jane Eyre– Emily BronteUno dei capolavori indiscussi della letteratura vittoriana, questa è forse la storia più struggente d’amore mai scritta. Heathcliff e Catherine si amano intensamente. Eppure si odiano e si disprezzano allo stesso modo. Sono troppo orgogliosi per dirselo, al punto da sposare persone che non amano per farsi un dispetto. Si rincorrono continuamente senza perdersi mai e senza mai confessarsi e vivere a pieno il loro amore. L’ orgoglio è veleno, follia ma è esso stesso passione, ragion d’essere dello stesso amore. (Costantino Gisella) (Translation)
Far Out Magazine rescues one of those topics that has been published a (large) number of times: Brian Cox's favourite books, including Wuthering Heights. We first published it in 2011, and we are not even sure that it was the first time it was published. Thoughts about happiness, including one by Charlotte, on Astrosofa. British Theatre Guide mentions the project created by Obscura Theatre for the Brontë Parsonage Museum and Ilkley Literature Festival, Soundlandscape: The Wild Hauntings on the Moor.
