Monthly Tuesday Talk
Catherine Earnshaw is one of the most controversial women in literature, loved and hated in equal measure. But whatever you think about her, she breaks the mould of the traditional heroine and flies in the face of conventional female behaviour of her time. This talk looks at some of the different ways she and other female characters in Wuthering Heights have been interpreted, and explores possible sources for these characters in Emily’s reading, her earlier writing, and even her life.
The talk will be delivered twice, at 11:30am and 2.00pm.
Free with admission to the Museum.
