There are many themes to Emily Bronte's Wuthering
Heights. However, the most dominant theme is that
of revenge. This is especially true in the second
half of the book when Heathcliff's malicious plan
of revenge comes to life. Many believe Heathcliff
to be inhuman, some even describe him as sadistic
and demonic. "Heathcliff's revenge may involve a
pathological condition of hatred, but it is not at
bottom merely neurotic. It has a moral force. "

Mr And Mrs Thrushcross Grange
964 words
Bronte wrote a horrifying story of deceit,
unrequited love, and ghosts, but at the same time,
she wrote a bittersweet narration of the tangled
web of two families. These families, the Linton's
and the Earnshaw's, were intertwined through a
series of marriages and love affairs, and had a

Heights, the first generation was the parents, Mr.

Devises A Plan Edgar Linton
1,470 words
Love is an affection of warm attachment,
adoration, and devotion based on strong
admiration, benevolence, and common interests. It
would be anomalous to associate this pleasurable
emotion with the ever so spiteful thought of
revenge. However, considering the major themes
proposed in Wuthering Heights, revenge is the most
imminent of them all. It is the predominant factor
that leads the protagonists to their dismal fate.
Emily Bronte proves that there is no peace in
eternal vengeance, and in the ...

Belle Dame Sans Merci Wuthering Heights
1,033 words
The conflicting theme demonstrated throughout
Wuthering Heights is remarkably similar to the
theme implicit in La Belle Dame sans Merci. This
conflict is in the form of appearances, Illusion
vs. Reality and man vs. nature and is personified
through the characters, as well as the similarity
of Gothic surroundings in both texts. In Wuthering
Heights this parallel is shown through Heathcliff,
who is vulnerable after falling head over heel for
Catherine. Similarly in La Belle Dame sans Merci

Wuthering Heights Nature Vs Nurture

Wuthering Heights and Thruscross Grange represents
both the contrast between wilderness and civility
which dominates the lives of its inhabitants.

which is overcome in the final chapters by Cathy.

the three novels that we have read so far, Great

the main characters are faced with negative
challenges and influences. Positive guides and
influences also affect the characters in these
books; the positive guides usually end up winning
in the end. In Great Expectations, the main
character of the story was Pip. Some of the

Love and Lovability There is no character in
Wuthering Heights who is completely lovable, who

peoples adoration for one another is the reason
why no character is completely lovable. Receiving
too much attention spoiled Catherine Earnshaw.

without a real family to love him. Finally,

the status of Preparedness theory today? When
confronted with a phobic object or situation an
individual appears to have little control and no
alternative but to avoid the feared object or
situation (Ohman 038; Soares, 1993).
Consequently, individuals with a phobia can be
