Readings of Emily Bronte's poems
With commentary by Ian Watt
Readers:
Julia Lang and Frank Duncan
Ian Watt , Professor in the Department of English at the University of California, Berkeley, introduces poems by Emily Bronte , some famous, some almost unknown; and he shows how a knowledge of her childhood fiction ' The Kingdom of Gondal ' throws light on many of her poems, removing them from the context of personal self-analysis to that of objective and universal human experience.
