Breaking Boundaries: Anne Brontë’s Feminist Legacy

7 Jul 2024

14:30 - 15:30

Midland Hotel

Join us for a thought-provoking discussion as we celebrate the enduring feminist legacy of Anne Brontë, a pioneering voice in Victorian literature, with Brontë scholar, Rose Gant, and Anne Brontë biographer, Samantha Ellis. 

Anne, often overshadowed by her sisters, Charlotte and Emily, challenged societal norms and championed women's rights through her groundbreaking novels and poetry. 

From her portrayal of strong, independent female characters to her unflinching exploration of themes, such as domestic abuse, addiction, and female agency, Anne's writings continue to resonate with modern audiences and inspire generations of feminists. 

Please note, this venue has changed from the printed programme.
