Anne
Brontë - The Scarborough Connection
- A Magical History Tour -
This work is both a literary, and a pictorial account of the life of
Anne Brontë, with a particular focus on her connections with the seaside
resort of Scarborough; a place she loved; a place she portrayed in both
her novels - Agnes Grey and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall;
a place where she wished to open her own school, and the place where she
ultimately died and was buried. In 1897, a journalist declared 'It
is impossible to stand by the tomb of the authoress of "Agnes Grey"
and "The Tenant" without becoming possessed of a great yearning
to know more about her'; and it was this sentiment, coupled with
the knowledge of the hundreds of people who visit Anne's grave at Scarborough
each year, that inspired me to create this web-site. The links below will
take you to a range of pages - covering various aspects of Anne, her life,
and her achievements.
