The Brontës' early writings: Combining fantasy and fact

[@markfurnell6748]

Jane Eyre was written by a novelist who was also a poet! It is the most beautiful novel I have ever read. I greatly look forward to meeting her....in Heaven!

I would love to purchase facsimiles of this juvenilia if it was available.

Some are published in original text form, + at least 1 graphic novel of 1 or both fictional countries.

That's so cute, the early writing was written small enough for the toy soldiers to read x33 Have the diaries and journals of Emily and Charlotte been digitized or published for online reading?

Great video but spoilt because you cannot make out what Ann Dinsdale is saying apart from her pronunciation of the letter 'S'!

[@DrUniversePerson]

Great, but sound mixing is a problem! Lift the voices and lower the weird music!

I don't think Tipp-Ex was a thing back then but at 1:00 it looks like maybe the author went for 'Histories' originally, as there's quite a gap between the words 'History' and 'of.' It really does look like Tipp-Ex was used. 🤔

[@DrUniversePerson]

No Tipp-Ex, but there was gouache.
