The novel Wuthering Heights is written by Emily Bronte. The narrative is non-linear, involving several flashbacks, and involves two major narrators: Mr. Lockwood and Ellen "Nelly" Dean. The novel opens in 1801, with Lockwood's arrival at Thrushcross Grange, a house on the Yorkshire moors which he rents from the rude Heathcliff, who lives near Wuthering Heights. Lockwood spends the night at Wuthering Heights and has a terrifying dream: the ghost of Catherine Earnshaw, begging to be let into the house from outside. Intrigued, Lockwood asks housekeeper Nelly Dean to tell the story of Heathcliff and Wuthering Heights while he stays at the Grange to recover from a cold. Some of the important themes of Wuthering Heights are revenge, reciprocated and unrequited love, obsession, selfishness, and responsibility. Bronte mainly focuses on the love between Catherine and Healthcliff. The difference between the feeling that Catherine feels for Heathcliff and the one she feels for Edgar is that Heathcliff is part of her nature, he is like her soul mate. On the other hand, she marries Edgar only to improve her status rather than out of true love. Revenge is the most dominant theme of the book, although in the end Heathcliff abandons his plan for revenge. For Heathcliff, revenge began when Hindley mistreated him when they were younger. He started to hate him and wanted revenge. After returning from his trip, he made Hindley's life miserable. Heathcliff also wanted revenge on Edgar for marrying the woman he loves. In the final chapter, Heathcliff initially believes that if he can avenge Catherine's death, he will somehow become closer to her. Even if the exact opposite happens. When Hea...... middle of paper...... there are certain tensions, contradictions and ambiguities present in chapter 34 that establish the true intensity of Heathcliff's feelings towards Catherine, feelings so intense that they border on a jealous obsession. .On the other hand, Edgar Linton Edgar represents gentlemanliness. He is considered a resident of Thrushcross Grange and he does not move throughout his life but is raised and dies here. As his wife, Catherine must move to the Grange, of which Edgar is the master and patriarch. His heritage, unlike Heathcliff's, is legitimate and he is an educated man. In many ways Edgar is ruled by materialism, one need only examine the description of Thrushcross Grange to appreciate the environment that characterizes him. He is defined as "a doll" and a "spoiled brat". His character is consistent and his love for Catherine devoted and traditional.
