In looking over my sister Anne's papers, I find mournful evidence that religious feeling had been to her but too much like what it was to Cowper; I mean, of course, in a far milder form. Without rendering her a prey to those horrors that defy concealment, it subdued her mood and bearing to a perpetual pensiveness; the pillar of a cloud glided constantly before her eyes; she ever waited at the foot of a. secret Sinai, listening in her heart to the voice of a trumpet sounding long and waxing louder. Some, perhaps, would rejoice over these tokens of sincere though sorrowing piety in a deceased relative: I own, to me they seem sad, as if her whole innocent life had been passed under the martyrdom of an unconfessed physical pain: their effect, indeed, would be too distressing, were it not combated by the certain knowledge that in her last moments this tyranny of a too tender conscience was overcome; this pomp of terrors broke up, and, passing away, left her dying hour unclouded. Her belief in God did not then bring to her dread, as of a stem Judge -- but hope, as in a Creator and Saviour: and no faltering hope was it, but a sure and steadfast conviction, on which, in the rude passage from Time to Eternity, she threw the weight of her human weakness, and by which she was enabled to bear what was to be borne, patiently -- serenely -- victoriously....

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beautifully readable modern prose translations of the classic 19th-century verses of Charlotte, Emily, and Anne Bronte The 19th-century British sisters produced much fine literature. They are most famous for their novels – Charlotte Bronte’s Jane Eyre, Emily Bronte’s Wuthering Heights, Anne Bronte’s The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, and so on. However, they also wrote profound and distinctive poems on many topics. They are most famous for their novels – Charlotte Bronte’s Jane Eyre, Emily Bronte’s Wuthering Heights, Anne Bronte’s The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, and so on. However, they also wrote profound and distinctive poems on many topics. Their poetry dealt with issues in faith, morality, and society. They reflected on love, personal loss, and introspection – and explored themes of passion, solitude, and spirituality. The poems contain remarkable descriptions of nature and the supernatural. We find in them expressions of intense emotion and awesomely vivid imagery. Charlotte Bronte penned her renowned poem “Gilbert” at age 13. She continued writing throughout her life with various magazines publishing her poems alongside her novels. Emily Bronte (1818 -1848) and Anne Bronte (1820 -1849) had most of their poetry published in the book Poems by Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell (1846). The sisters used masculine pen names for privacy and because the society of the time was often reluctant to take female writers seriously. However, norms have changed. Today, the Bronte novels and poems are available everywhere and receive the acclaim they deserve. The present anthology is a modernized version of the original 1846 collection. It is part of a series from the publisher translating classic poetic works into present-day prose to improve their readability and understandability.
Download or read book Poems of the Bronte Sisters written by Charlotte Bronte and published by Digireads.com Publishing. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charlotte, Emily and Anne Bronte were successful poets and novelists in their own right; however, their careers began with several collaborative works of stories and poetry. They first wrote under male pseudonyms as they feared retribution by the male-dominated literary world if they published works under their own names. They attracted attention immediately, and soon after found success with works like Charlotte's "Jane Eyre" and Emily's "Wuthering Heights." This collection of poetry reveals the highly imaginative minds of these siblings, who grew up in the moors of Yorkshire and were greatly influenced by the deaths of their mother and two older sisters. Each sister displays a unique poetic voice and style, varying between passionate, melancholic, terse, melodic and symbolic. This is an excellent introduction to the siblings' highly original and influential writing, as well as a wonderful addition to any Bronte enthusiast's collection.
Download or read book Bront Sisters written by Anne Brontë and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2002 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the Brontës have long fascinated readers of fiction and biography, their poetry was all too little known until this pioneering selection by Stevie Davies, the novelist and critic. Charlotte (1816-1855) is certainly a competent poet, and Anne (1820-1849) developed a distinctive voice, while Emily (1818-1848) is one of the great women poets in English. Read together with their novels, the poems movingly elucidate the ideas around which the narratives revolve. And they surprise us out of our conventional notions of the sisters' personalities: Emily's rebelliousness, for example, is counterbalanced here by great tenderness. This selection of over seventy poems gives an idea of the variety of thought and feeling within each author's work, and of the way in which the poems of these three remarkable writers parallel and reflect each other.
