1. The Brontes at war -- 2. Angria and war in context -- 3. Wellington and Napoleon: the fantastical crafting of military celebrity -- 4. The Napoleonic Wars: 'emotion and the everyday soldier' -- 5. Colonial warfare: 'violence and blackness' -- 6. Civil war and conflict: 'rebellion and revolt' -- 7. Conclusion: The Brontes violent legacies.

The Brontes and War explores the representations of militarisim and masculinity in Charlotte and Branwell Bronte's youthful writings. It offers insight into how the siblings understood and reimagined conflict (both local and overseas) and its emotional legacies whilst growing up in early-nineteenth-century Britain. Their writings shed new light on a period little discussed by social and military historians, providing not only a new approach to Bronte Studies, but also acting as a familial case study for how the media captivated and enticed the public imagination. Emma Butcher is a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow in English Literature at the University of Leicester, UK. Her research focuses on childhood, literature and war in the nineteenth century. In 2017, Emma was named as one of the BBC/AHRC's New Generation Thinkers and she is a regular contributor to BBC radio, as well as various public history platforms. She has worked closely with the Bronte Parsonage for a number of years, co-curating their 2015 exhibition, 'The Brontes and War'. This is her first book.
