Overview

Join Dr Claire O’Callaghan & Dr Michael Stewart as they dismantle the myths that have long obscured Emily Brontë’s life and art.

Join Dr Claire O’Callaghan & Dr Michael Stewart as they dismantle the myths that have long obscured Emily Brontë’s life and art, revealing a bold, passionate, and politically attuned writer whose work still resonates today. Rediscover Emily Brontë for our times.

Emily Bront is one of our best-known writers, but also one of the most enigmatic. Her only novel, Wuthering Heights, has been adapted across all media forms. The latest film adaptation, directed by Emerald Fennell, and starring Jacob Elordi and Margot Robbie, is yet another interpretation.


Dr Claire O’Callaghan’s Emily Brontë Reappraised brings new insight into how we read and remember one of literature’s most enigmatic writers. It has just been re-published in a new expanded form. Dr Michael Stewart is the multi-award-winning author of nine books, including, Walking the Invisible: Following in the Footsteps of the Brontës, and Ill Will: The Untold Story of Heathcliff. He is also the curator of the Brontë Stones and the director of the Brontë Writing Centre.


This is a Haworth: Home of Gothic Literature event for the Haworth Festival.
