Emily Bront??s ?Wuthering Heights?, 2004. This paper discusses Emily Bront??s ?Wuthering Heights?, a novel demonstrating fragmentation through separation. 1,430 words (approx. 5.7 pages), 1 source, MLA, $ 47.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper explains that Emily Bront??s novel, ?Wuthering Heights?, is a work of contrasts, such as masculine versus feminine, the introvert versus the extrovert, and power over passivity. The author points out that the female desiring power in a patriarchal environment contrasts sharply with a male?s desire for the civilizing effect of culture. The paper relates, in detail, the portrayal of Catherine and Heathcliff as two sides of one being, which assists the reader in the discovery that "Wuthering Heights" is not a love story in the usual style.
From the Paper "Heathcliff?s side is introversion. From the point of his introduction into the Height?s household, the boy is described as gibbering and unable to communicate. From this can be seen that the boy, however objectionable, is isolated. His initial treatment at the hands of Mrs. Earnshaw and the children heightens this isolation, and he becomes ostracized. Even Nelly Dean, the servant, refers to the child as ?it? and describes him as a ?sullen, patient child? (22). Heathcliff doesn?t seem to react to either emotional or physical bullying. Hindley repeatedly attacks him, but Heathcliff does not react. Rather he internalizes his reactions. He is pushed under the hooves of a horse and bears this with silence and coolness. Nelly mistakenly reads this reaction as being proof that the child is not vindictive, but later finds this not to be the case (23). The child has internalized and introverted his anger, not in order to diffuse it, but to store and hone it for later use."

"Wuthering Heights" - The End, 2005. A commentary on the final pages of Emily Bronte's "Wuthering Heights". 4,452 words (approx. 17.8 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 116.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper contends that the ending of the novel "Wuthering Heights" poses many a problem for the reader and that an unequivocal interpretation of it, and of the whole text for that matter, is not possible. The paper discusses how the ending has to be put in relation to what lies behind the events it narrates and not to what is apparent. It also argues that a decision has to be taken as to how we are to regard the fact that both narrators, Lockwood and Nelly, whom the author has given us plenty of reasons to mistrust, are perfectly in accord with the way that the novel concludes.
From the Paper "The nature and direction of our interpretation depends much on what we take Emily Bronte's attitude to be towards the second generation. Wuthering Heights could very well end with the words "Together they would brave Satan and all his legions." However, the author chooses to add almost a page of impressions which apparently have nothing to do with the young couple. After all, the final close-up left to the reader is not the image of the two young lovers under the moonlight but the unsettling gloomy vision of an isolated graveyard. The choice of such setting is entirely of the writer's making. Emily Bronte, intentionally or not, creates an ambiguity on all levels of the narrative. In this connection, when trying to determine to what extent the machinery of the Gothic and the delicately calculated presence of the Fantastic are at work in the ending of Wuthering Heights, we realise that it cannot be affirmed with surety that one single type of imagery pervades the final pages.

The Madness of "Wuthering Heights", 2002. A look at madness in Emily Bronte's "Wuthering Heights, focusing on Catherine Linton and Heathcliff and the effects of madness on themselves and the people around them. 1,389 words (approx. 5.6 pages), 3 sources, MLA, $ 46.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract By analyzing the novel, "Wuthering Heights" by Emily Bronte, this paper examines the effects of madness on the character Catherine Linton's health and concludes that her health problems were brought on by her temper and fits of rage. It also examines Heathcliff's sanity and how it effected his health. The paper takes into account Heathcliff's calculated revenge and draws similarities to William Shakespeare's character, Hamlet. It also shows how Heathcliff uses madness to control the character Isabella.
From the Paper "Madness can assume many different forms: a concept demonstrated throughout Emily Bront??s Wuthering Heights. Through both character development and their actions, Wuthering Heights presents various forms of madness in the characters and shows how this insanity affects not only the characters themselves but also those close to them. Many characters exhibit behaviors that appear to be ?mad?. Some, such as Catherine, may be truly insane while others may, at times, be feigning madness as a means to control the actions of others. Heathcliff also has tendencies that make him seem insane, but is he really? At times, his actions seem to contradict themselves, leading the reader to ponder the true meaning of insanity itself."

"Wuthering Heights", 2007. This paper discusses how to teach Emily Bronte's novel "Wuthering Heights" as romantic literature. 873 words (approx. 3.5 pages), 3 sources, MLA, $ 31.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The paper suggests that a teacher define a romance novel in order to allow the students to formulate their own opinions of how well "Wuthering Heights" conforms to this definition. The paper advises the teaching of the main elements of the Romantic period of writing. The paper also notes the importance of students understanding the emotions driving the main characters.
From the Paper "Finding a context into which most modern seventh-grade students can place this story can be difficult. Boys of this age tend to dismiss "romances" or "romantic" stories. Girls of this age are attracted to books such as The Babysitter's Club series and Young Adult genre novels that occasionally have romantic elements; therefore, they are not as quick, in general, to dismiss such stories. However, they frequently perceive the romance novel as being restricted to the format used by the genre romance novel publishers, such as Silhouette or Harlequin."

'Wuthering Heights', 2006. A discussion regarding the theme of the windows, doors and gates as barriers in Emily Bronte's 'Wuthering Heights'. 2,207 words (approx. 8.8 pages), 1 source, MLA, $ 68.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper takes a look at the book 'Wuthering Heights' by Emily Bronte.
The paper focuses primarily on the theme of displacement that is prevalent throughout the book. According to the paper, Bronte uses windows, doors and gates to reinforce a sense of physical estrangement.
From the Paper "The problem of seeing something one cannot access, and acting as a voyeur into someone's privacy is how Catherine's troubles began, while Catherine was a girl, wandering with Heathcliff on the moors. Then, Catherine first saw the Lintons through a window with Heathcliff. Heathcliff explains this to Nelly Dean, in an extended monologue in Chapter 6, another example of narrative 'framing' through a narrative that is reported from one person to another: "[we] planted ourselves on a flower-plot under the drawing-room window [to watch the Lintons]," he says to Nelly, describing his adventures with Catherine. Catherine at Heathcliff, at the window, see the quarreling Linton children as unhappy: "Shouldn't they have been happy? We should have thought ourselves in heaven...[in] the middle of the table sat a little dog, shaking its paw and yelping; which, from their mutual accusations, we understood they had nearly pulled in two between them. ...I'd not exchange, for a thousand lives, my condition here, for Edgar Linton's at Thrushcross Grange." (Chapter 6) Later, of course, Heathcliff does just that--forcing himself into the Linton's sphere by longing for Linton's wife, by marrying Isabella and finally taking control over the Grange."

The Elegiac Struggle in "Wuthering Heights", 2006. A discussion on the way in which Emily Bronte utilizes her three main characters in "Wuthering Heights" to highlight the elegiac undertones of the novel. 2,123 words (approx. 8.5 pages), 0 sources, $ 66.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper uses textual evidence from Emily Bronte's "Wuthering Heights" to illustrate how Bronte uses Heathcliff, Catherine, and Edgar to represent the three major aspects of the elegy. It discusses how Heathcliff, with his animalistic nature, represents both nature and death; how Edgar, with his proper behavior, represents society and how Catherine, struggling between the two men and their love for her, represents the person who descends and ascends in elegiac works. It also analyzes how this applies to Bronte's theory of elegy as a whole.
From the Paper "Despite the fact that Wuthering Heights is considered a classic, Gothic romance, Heathcliff is far removed from the type of character we consider to be synonymous with the romantic hero. Heathcliff could easily be likened to the Byronic hero, with his extreme broodiness and melancholy. Yet, even this heroic model does not fully encapsulate his severe, animalistic personality. When Mr. Earnshaw first introduces his family to young Heathcliff, Earnshaw remarks, "...it's as dark almost as if it came from the devil" (pg 29). The key word in this statement may appear to be "devil," as it can be indicative of someone who is both wily and evil, but the word that is truly critical to this passage is "it's." "

Familial Tragedies in "Wuthering Heights", 2003. An exploration of the theme of tragedy in Emily Bronte's "Wuthering Heights", including narrative devices and linguistic contruction. 1,598 words (approx. 6.4 pages), 5 sources, MLA, $ 52.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper examines how Emily Bronte's "Wuthering Heights is a remarkable work of fiction in its painful exploration of familial damage. It looks at how in its unremitting darkness and in its insistence on the pain love brings, it is both a psychological treatise on the destruction of the soul and a story wrought by a novelist who writes with an assured, confident hand. It discusses the underlying themes of the novel as well as some of the narrative devices that Bront? employs. There are several of some significance. It also shows how Bront? employs a direct, first person narrative to great effect.
From the Paper "Word must also be made regarding the happy ending of Wuthering Heights. In short, it feels contrived, though it highly satisfying. Through the unremitting gloom of the tale, day suddenly breaks! Hareton (for whom we have been cheering through much of the story) and Catherine are suddenly together; Heathcliff has at last, it seems, found Catherine?s ghost, and is soon united with her. Mrs. Dean sits, ?sewing and singing a song,? (223) and all, it seems, is well. Even Joseph, whose presence throughout the narrative seems indicative of a certain dislike to overly-orthodox thought, seems as happy as he can be, with the rightful master restored to the house."

Abstract Emily Bronte's classic novel, "Wuthering Heights", is a fascinating portrayal of a family and associated people in constant turmoil. Though some of its events might be difficult to believe, similar situations occur today in families everywhere. Therefore, I have put this story into a modern-day setting, using the characters' same names, but changing the narrator to a person not found in the original book - a gardener who works at the estate. He is the narrator who reports on the happenings, the triumphs and the tragedies involving the family.
