Miss Eyre (thornfield)
Welcome, fellow Bronte Fans!
I`m your new web hostess :-)... now, as my webproject
is nearly complete, I´ve got enough time & patience
to do the job properly...
First things first: As this list is pretty silent, I
thought it was a good idea to inform you, the members,
of my web project. My intention was to generally revive
interest in the topic, and subsequently, stimulate
discussions again... There´s a lot of interest going
on in this field of study, for example: it´s very likely
that a DNA analysis of the Brontes´ hair (taken from
the archives of the Parsonage Museum) will be
undertaken! how thrilling!!
Well, my mistake in the process was that I sent mails
thinking that I´d address only those who are subscribed
to the *Bronte Conference* (not knowing that the
members-list is a general one). I´ve already stated my
case to Mr. Walhus, the manager of Spring Virtual
Community, and apologized for the mishap. And I will,
of course, apologize to everyone who replies to my
mail in a negative manner. mea culpa.... Well, I hope
that by telling it as it is, I can put things right
again... :-)
your sometimes overzealous webhostess ;-),
Miss Eyre

What's the address of your web project? What are some good starter websites for learning about the Brontes?

You might want to add this site to
http://members.tripod.com/~AthenaIris/ring.html
The Jane Eyre web ring.

Good idea. I'll bet a lot of the Bronte sites have links pages and it's easy to get them to include your site by asking them to in an email. And it's always nice to reciprocate.
The Bronte Conference address to give out is:

Oh, I thought you´d know anyway, etorb!
Here it is:
Bronte Sisters Links
( It´s a collection of links about the Bronte Sisters, everything
you ever wanted to know about them ;-) .... located at the
Yahoo Groups system without being a discussion group....
1770 links on the Brontes so far! Freely accessible (as if it
was a normal website) and non-commercial, of course!
Just a labour of love.... )
Tell me what you think of it.... and hey, if you know
any webpages which are not yet included, please let
me know - I´m on a never-ending search!! :-)
PS: The Jane Eyre webring is now called Brontes in
performance webring, isn´t it?! I´m already a member
of this ring! :-)))

Yes, Terry, most of the Bronte related pages have
link-sections! I checked them all and added the
links to my page! :-))

Have you thought of setting up your great set of links at
http://delicious.com
Delicious is the hot, trendy new way to display links and they get out to quite an audience.
