Introduction Introduction of Emily Bronte and her Wuthering Heights Emily Jane Bronte (July 30, 1818 – December 19, 1848) was a great British novelist and pet in the 19th century and one of the extraordinary women writers in the literary history of England, and she is also best remembered for her only novel Wuthering Heights, which is now an acknledged classic of English literature. Emily was born at Thornton in Yorkshire. She was the younger sister of Charlotte Bronte, and the fifth of six children.
