Although Charlotte Mew (1869–1928) was born just over fifty years after Emily Brontë (1818–1848), there are many similarities between them. They both experienced multiple bereavements. Their closest bonds were with their siblings. Mew idolized Emily Brontë both as a woman and a poet. Mew published an essay on Emily Brontë and wished to edit a complete edition of her poems. Mew's poems are clearly modelled on those of Emily Brontë. Both poets wrote objective and impersonal poems; they each adopted a variety of voices and personalities to explore such themes as death, both without and with religion. These poems are polyphonic. Both poets experimented with poetic forms. Mew adopted some of the characteristics found in Emily Brontë's poems, including the frequent repetition of words and phrases to intensify emotions or states of minds or situations. Particularly prominent is shared bird imagery. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
