Emily Bronte Research Paper

The Lonely Life of Emily Brontë Who would have ever thought that from making up stories and creating fantasy worlds with siblings a person could come up with q literature masterpiece in the present. Even if people do not get to experience the fame of their writings while still alive. As I read about the life of Emily Brontë, that lived a quiet life along with her siblings, reminded me of how many people live a lonely life as well. Imagination is a big motive for young and old, as people tend to create stories of dreams they have or a wish they had, but sometimes people like to experience these dreams alone.

The afterward explains how other elements of the Brontës’ life figure into the story and setting” (Cooper). In other words what encourage Emily to write this novel were her thoughts and experiences on living a lonely life. She did not find another way to express her feelings then by writing in an imaginary novel. Also, in Donna C.
