Lesson outcome

I can explain how Brontë creates tone in ‘Mild the Mist Upon the Hill’.

Show transcript
Like other Romantic poets, Brontë uses natural imagery to present human emotions. Brontë lived a quiet and reclusive life in the Yorkshire countryside. Some may argue Brontë's poem is about the sense of security and belonging her nostalgic memories bring. Others may claim there is a melancholic tone to the poem.
