Walking with Anne Brontë (black & white edition)

Christina Rauh Fishburne, Catherine Rayner

Description

Whether on the seashore or on the trails between clumps of Haworth heather, let us walk with Anne Brontë and listen to her discussing the kind of truth “that always conveys its own moral to those who are able to receive it.”
Join us in our academic and personal celebratory reflections on “gentle” Anne’s “core of steel,” sense of family duty, and enduring courage. Anne was the most underrated and least known of the three Brontë sisters for the better part of a century after she died in May 1849. Walking with Anne Brontë adds gravitas and personality to the growing chorus of academic and other voices honoring the youngest Brontë sibling’s inspirational life and literary legacy.

DEAR GENTLE ANNE
When will they let Anne’s true stature be known,
Or let her talents and greatness stand revealed?
For none of the sisters should stand alone.
Yet, gentle Anne lingers in the darkness, her beauty concealed.
Across the wild stormy moors, nodding bluebells whisper her name—
And those lost winds softly weep in soulful reply.
I also hear those Scarborough breezes tremble as they recall the pain
Of where once she walked, often stayed, and chose to die.
When will gentle Anne’s true voice be heard
On winged echo beyond the dusty sunlight and with the aid of gentle night?
Whether it be through th
