It was not until 1850, when Wuthering Heights received a second printing with an introduction by Emily's sister Charlotte, that it attracted a wide readership. And from that point the reputation of the book has never looked back. Today it is widely recognized as one of the great novels of English literature.I will introduce the author firstly. Emily Bronte, a British writer, Charlotte Bronte's sister, Anne Bronte's elder sister, was born in a poor family of the pastor. She was in poor living conditions, studying in a boarding school. And also once went to Belgium learning French, German and French literature with elder sister, preparing to establish a school in the future, but not succeed. Emily was introverted, elegant. She was fond of writing poetry from childhood. In 1846, they published a book of poems at their own expense. Wuthering Heights is her only novel, published in December 1847. The three sisters three novels, Charlotte's Jane Eyre, Emilys Wuthering Heights and little sister Annie's Edgar nice graham were published in the same year. In addition to Wuthering Heights, Emily also produced 193 poems. She was considered as a British genius writer.After reading the masterpiece, Wuthering Heights, gave me a kind of depression and made me unable to understand what love on earth is. I think all the people in this novel are pathetic. Somebody even is lamentable. Everyone who read this novel would be moved.Wuthering Heights is a story of love and revenge. It is the typical gothic novel. The story is narrated by Lockwood, a gentleman visiting the Yorkshire moors where the novel is set, and of Mrs. Dean, housekeeper to the Earnshaw family, who had been witness of the interlocked destinies of the original owners of the Heights. In a series of flashbacks and time shifts, Brontë draws a powerful picture of the enigmatic Heathcliff, who is brought to Heights from the streets of Liverpool by Mr. Earnshaw. Heathcliff is treated as Earnshaw's own children, Catherine and Hindley. After his death Heathcliff is bullied by Hindley, who loves Catherine, but she marries Edgar Linton. Heathcliffs destructive force is unleashed, and his first victim is Catherine, who dies giving birth to a girl, another Catherine. Isabella Linton, Edgar's sister, whom he had married, flees to the south. Their son Linton and Catherine are married, but always sickly Linton dies. Hareton, Hindley's son, and the young widow became close. Increasingly isolated and alienated from daily life, Heathcliff experiences visions, and he longs for the death that will reunite him with Catherine. In the novel, the author's put all her efforts on the characterizations of Heathcliff. In it she placed all her indignation, sympathy and ideal. This outcast who is deprived of mans warm in the actual life has been trained to have a strong love and hate. Hindleys whip makes him get a taste of the cruel life, and also teaches him how to weak-spiritedly yield the fate of unchangeable shame. He chooses to resist. Catherine was his faithful partner. They developed the true love in common resistance. However, Catherine finally betrays heathcliff, and married Edgar Linton she doesn't know and love. The reasons causing the love tragedy are her vanity, ignorance and stupid. Finally she looses her youth, love and life, and also destroys heathcliff who always madly loves her and almost hurts next generation.Catherines betrayal and the wretched fate after married are the most important turning point in this novel. It makes heathcliffs full of love become matchless hate. Catherines death makes heathcliffs hate burst out, and becomes the crazy revenge power. Heathcliffs purpose has been achieved. He not only makes Hindley and Edgar die miserably, dominate exclusively two manors, but also let their next innocent generation suffer the consequences. This crazy revenge is seemed to be against the convention, but incisively and vividly expresses his extraordinary spirit of rebelliousness. This kind of special revolt is determined by the special environment and special character. Heathcliffs tragedy of love is the tragedy of social, and also is the tragedy of the time.Wuthering Heights is not so easy to get into, because the description of the environment and the character, the portrait of this obsessive love are so dark and somewhat off-putting. But in this novel there is a remarkable way setting the stage for one of the most remarkable structures. And these structures circle upon itself in a series of repetitions as it plays out across two generations. Besides, the description of wasteland in the novel gave more impression for readers. Wasteland gives Wuthering Heights rare vigor, charm, mysterious and full of passion. Wuthering Heights explores the philosophy of humanity. The characters in the novel are full of boldness, wildness and passion which are the human nature and instinct that free from restriction of social civilization. In this novel, passion is the key to bring the readers into the story, it does not matter of good and evil, beauty and ugliness, its a real existence for us to experience and think.The end of the novel was that Heathcliff committed suicide. His death is a die for their love, and expresses his undying love for Catherine. Before he died, he gave up the revenge of the next generation. This reflects that he actually has a good nature, but the cruel reality makes him lose his nature. The recovery of humanity is a spiritual sublimation and reflects the humanitarian ideals. This novel also reflects what kind of social background the author suffered. With the development of economy in capital society, it is important behaviors that have stood the test of the temptation. 英语10丙 包丹红-
