Poet's Archetypes

Far Out Magazine takes a look at the songs that made a 'great impression' on Kate Bush:

Whether you were first struck by the bouncy soundscape of ‘Running Up That Hill’ or the Emily Brontë-inspired lyrics to ‘Wuthering Heights’, or perhaps the accompanying video, which is just as striking as the song it accompanies, it’s likely that at least one song by the art pop icon has made a profound impression on you. (Elle Palmer)

The Hindu explores the life and work of Lord Byron:

Byron’s ascent to literary stardom was swift and sensational. The first two parts of his four-part poem Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage, published after a transformative tour of Europe and the Middle East, catapulted him to fame. The poem introduced the archetype of the ‘Byronic hero’—a dark, brooding figure with a mysterious past, traits that many believed mirrored Byron himself. This persona fascinated readers and contributed to his immense popularity. The poet’s archetype of the Byronic hero has inspired many iconic characters including Heathcliff from Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights and Mr. Rochester from Charlotte Brontë’s Jane Eyre.

Then it would be Wide Sargasso Sea by Jean Rhys, a classic feminist book that I read when I was studying at UCC. It had a major impact on me as I was really interested in post-colonialism and feminism and that tied it all together. (Marjorie Brennan)

SoloLibri (Italy) and the most famous sisters in literature:

Le sorelle Brontë: Charlotte, Emily e Anne

Il primato va al mitico trio, unico nella storia letteraria: tre sorelle scrittrici, tutte e tre autrici di capolavori della letteratura inglese: Jane Eyre, Cime tempestose e Agnes Grey. Stiamo parlando delle sorelle Brontë: Charlotte, Emily ed Anne che esordirono nel febbraio del 1846 sotto gli pseudonimi di Currer, Ellis e Acton Bell pubblicando la raccolta delle loro poesie sotto il titolo di Poems.

Il rapporto tra le tre, cresciute nella brughiera inglese con il fratello Branwell insieme al padre reverendo Patrick Brontë, non fu sempre idilliaco: tra tutte in particolare Charlotte, la primogenita, aveva fama di despota, era lei a dettare gli ordini sottomettendo le altre due. Per volontà di Charlotte le sorelle furono spronate a cercare un editore, forse non avrebbero mai ottenuto visibilità nel mondo letterario senza l’impegno tenace della maggiore. Emily, dal canto suo, era il vero genio della famiglia, autrice dell’immortale Cime tempestose. La terzogenita Anne, dotata di talento, fu ingiustamente schiacciata dalla fama delle prime due, ma ultimamente è oggetto di una nuova riscoperta letteraria. (Alice Figini) (Translation)
