Haworthis a small village not far from Bradfordin West Yorkshire.
Situated above the WorthValleyamid the bleak Pennine moors, Haworthis
internationally famous for its connection with the Bronte sisters. Haworthis
one of the main attractions in Yorkshireand has been for some time. In
the past 20 years it has attracted about one million visitors from
Japan, the USA, Canadaand Europe. Many come to visit the world-famous
Bronte Parsonage museum, home of the remarkable Bronte sisters. Others
are attracted by the steam railway, the Keighley & Worth valley line,
which runs for five miles from Keighley to Oxenhope and is one of the
longest established railways in the country. Thousands come to walk
the Pennines at the same time soaking up the atmosphere that inspired
Emily Bronte to write her world famous book; Wuthering Heights. But
most come simply to browse in the buildings along the Main Street.
Hypothesis
· The majority of people visiting Haworthwill be doing so for The
Sights.
The reason is because other than Sights in Haworththere is not much
else to do there. However this hypothesis is not very accurate as many
people could be coming to Haworthto visit relatives or for business
reasons.
· The Majority of tourists visiting Haworthwill come to see Wuthering
heights and the BronteparsonageMuseum .
This is as the book: "Wuthering heights" who's setting which shares
the same name as the books title is around 2 miles from the main
street of Haworthand the Girl who wrote the book, Charlotte Bronte
lived in the house now known as the BronteparsonageMuseum . These
attractions attract tourists from all over the world to come to
Haworthand learn more about the life of the Brontes.
· The majority of tourists visiting Haworthwill live with a 200 mile
radius of Haworthitself (UK).
This is because not many people will travel further than 200 miles
I also have to take into account the transport routes to the town, and how these might affect the number of visitors from each region. Betws-y-Coed is one of the smaller towns in the Snowdonia National Park, North Wales, with a population of approximately 615 people. Located on the upper end of the Conway valley where the Afon Llugwy joins the Afon Conway, the village is cut in half by the important A5 road which is one of the transcontinental routes from Ireland to the European mainland. The development of the A5 means that Betws-y-Coed is simply accessed from the Midlands and Southern England, examples being Birmingham and Stoke-On-Trent. The town today attracts tourists to the area throughout the year with the greatest number of people visiting in the summer months.
In Stephen Dunn’s 2003 poem, “Charlotte Bronte in Leeds Point”, the famous author of Jane Eyre is placed into a modern setting of New Jersey. Although Charlotte Bronte lived in the early middle 1800’s, we find her alive and well in the present day in this poem. The poem connects itself to Bronte’s most popular novel, Jane Eyre in characters analysis and setting while speaking of common themes in the novel. Dunn also uses his poem to give Bronte’s writing purpose in modern day.

Impacts of Tourism in Swanage Tourism has the potential to create impacts on the environment and communities that it relies on to accommodate visitors. Its impacts are mitigated by the long history of tourism activity. Communities have become used to tourism activity, and management measures to limit some areas of environmental damage have been implemented. Nevertheless, some impacts are far ranging, and they are set out below: * Inappropriate Development An increase in visitors can lead to pressure for new developments to serve and capitilise on their needs, eg. Caravan parks, visitor centres, cafes, signs, car parks, and additional accommodation.

When Emily Bronte wrote Wuthering Heights England was going through a time of great change. It?s past agrarian society was changing and the common man was able to obtain wealth. Setting helps us to further understand the conflict between the natural world and cultured humanity, through the two main houses in text, and the social situation on the English Moors. Wuthering Heights uses this time of social unrest to develop the theme of the natural world in conflict with cultured humanity.
In Emil Brontë's novel "Wuthering Heights" the two main residences, Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange, are both grand, wealthy houses lying near the wild, Yorkshire moors, "completely removed from the stir of society" (pg1). Besides these similarities though, they are almost exact opposites. Wuthering Heights is associated with passion, nature and the elemental whereas Thrushcross Grange epitomises civilisation, peace and order. The characteristics of both abodes are also evident in their respective residents. I will examine the distinct differences in their interior and exterior appearance as well as their inhabitants.
This chapter deals with the literature on the socio-economic impacts of heritage tourism in order to give the reader a clear picture of the problem. According to Weaver and Lawton (2002), the main purposed of tourism management at a destination is to maximise the economic, social and environmental benefits while trying to minimising the associated costs. Regarding the impacts of tourism, most literature will describes economic and social impacts in both positive and negative (Lickorish & Jenkins, 1997; Narayan, 2004; Page, 2007; Timothy & Boyd, 2003; Tsartas, 1992).
Wuthering Heights, written by Emily Bronte, has 323 pages. The genre of Wuthering Heights is realistic fiction, and it is a romantic novel. The book is available in the school library, but it was bought at Barnes and Nobles. The author’s purpose of writing Wuthering Heights is to describe a twisted and dark romance story. Thus, the author conveys the theme of one of life’s absolute truths: love is pain. In addition, the mood of the book is melancholy and tumultuous. Lastly, the single most important incident of the book is when Heathcliff arrives to Edgar Linton’s residence in the Granges unannounced to see Catherine’s state of health. Heathcliff’s single visit overwhelmed Catherine to the point of death.
Bronte’s Wuthering Heights, narrative structure is intricate, subjective, with multiple layers, recounted mainly through two fallible eyewitnesses, Lockwood, an outsider who narrates the first three chapters of the first volume, and the three chapters at the end of volume two. Nelly Dean, the housekeeper, is the second narrator who shapes the bulk of the story and dramatises the narrative with energy and immediacy. There are also other eyewitness narratives interspersed throughout the novel such as Zillah, Cathy Isabella, and Heathcliff. The novel dramatises the struggles and conflicts between two intertwined houses, namely the dark, bleak, windy farmhouse Wuthering heights, belonging to the Earnshaw’s and the orphaned Heathcliff. This house represents storms, and signifies cruelty. I...
In the 1847 novel of Wuthering Heights, Emily Bronte brilliantly employs frame narrative in order to tell a story within a story. The character of Ellen Dean, known formally as Nelly, tells of the past and present from her first person perspective, to the visiting Mr. Lockwood. She depicts the events as she recalls them that transpired during her years at the respective houses, Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange. She talks of the past as she remembers it, and also from what she sees, hears or finds out through the other characters’ words and actions. Although Nelly is basing the characters solely on her own interpretation of them, she is a pretty reliable source, having grown up with the first generation of characters and cared for the second. She grew up on the moors and her life revolves around the Earnshaws and the Lintons, whom she serves in more ways than one. Nelly’s devotion as well as criticism allows her to be a faithful servant throughout the years, as well as a sounding board for the other character’s problems. This allows her to narrate with some credibility because she’s witnessed and been involved in private moments between these two intertwining families all her life. Without her account of the events that took place on the Yorkshire moors, it would all be a mystery. In Wuthering Heights, Bronte depicts Nelly as the servant, confidant and mother figure and without her narrative the story would not be as plausible.
The story of Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights has been one of the most influential and powerful piece of literature ever written. After being published, it garnered a lot of interest because of the theme that was deemed misleading and critically unfit for society. The main theme of the book revolves around the evolution of love, passion and cruelty.
Emily Bronte, who never had the benefit of former schooling, wrote Wuthering Heights. Bronte has been declared as a “romantic rebel” because she ignored the repressive conventions of her day and made passion part of the novelistic tradition. Unlike stereotypical novels, Wuthering Heights has no true heroes or villains.
