Also coming up in July

 

We endeavour to send these newsletters every 4-6 weeks, but there is so much going on at present, we thought you'd like to know you can also get the latest news by following us on twitter @BronteParsonage and @BronteShop, Instagram @bronteparsonagemuseum and facebook at BronteParsonageMuseum.

Our free Tuesday talk in July will focus on Villette, Charlotte Brontë's final (and some say greatest) novel. Head along to the Museum for 2pm on Tuesday 5 July to delve into the secrets of this haunting and deeply autobiographical novel.

Our friends at the National Media Museum in Bradford are hosting Jane Eyre: Afterlives on Saturday 9 July at 7.30pm. Samira Ahmed, of BBC Radio 4's Front Row, will lead a panel discussion on the Brontë phenomenon before a screening of the 1943 film version of Jane Eyre, starring Orson Welles and Joan Fontaine.
