CrimeReads has an article by writer Isabella Valeri.
In trying to explore the nuances of narrative theory I naturally gravitated to Joseph Campbell’s 1949 work The Hero with a Thousand Faces, and the concept of the “monomyth”, a template for the “Hero’s Journey” in dramatic writing, a critical structure that has been applied to works as varied as the Epic of Gilgamesh, potentially the oldest surviving written epic, to Charlotte Brontë’s Jane Eyre, to Star Wars.
Great British Life recommends some weekend stays in Yorkshire for summer breaks including this one:
Brontë Wilds is perfectly positioned close to Haworth, where the Brontë sisters lived and wrote their famous books. The stylish lakefront lodges – one with three bedrooms and the other with two – offer a serene haven with stunning views. Step out onto the private deck, away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, and soak in the tranquillity of the surrounding countryside. You can also watch steam trains pass by from the nearby Keighley and Worth Valley Railway – made famous by The Railway Children film. Haworth, with its charming cobbles and Brontë history, is nearby. A 20-minute drive away in Thornton is the fascinating Brontë Birthplace, where the sisters and their brother Branwell were born.
Brontë Wilds, near Haworth.
