A super juicy look at how Charlotte Brontë negatively influenced the popularity of her sister’s works and how we remember them today. Did Charlotte believe she was acting with her sister’s best interest when it came to their legacies? Or did she have ambitions of being the Brontë sibling we remember the most?

[8:24] “After the death of both Emily and Anne, Charlotte took the step to reach out to her publisher proposing she edit a new edition of her sisters’ works.”
[17:25] “In her Biographical Notes on the Pseudonymous Bells, she went even further, hinting that it was the toxic and difficult novel that brought about Anne’s demise.”
[23:24] “It has also led many scholars, and Emily and Anne fans, curious (and maybe even furious) to wonder if Charlotte went so far as to destroy other sources or even draft manuscripts.”
