Emily Jane Brontë (July 30,
 
       1818 – December 19, 1848)
       was a British novelist and
       poet, now best remembered
       for her only novel Wuthering
       Heights, a classic of English
       literature. Emily was the
       second eldest of the three
       surviving Brontë sisters,
       being younger than
       Charlotte and older than
       Anne. She published under
       the masculine pen name
       Ellis Bell. She was born in
       Thornton in Yorkshire.

Wuthering Heights is Emily Brontë's only novel. It was first published in
 
       1847 under the pseudonym Ellis Bell, and a posthumous second edition
       was edited by her sister Charlotte. The name of the novel comes from the
       Yorkshire manor on the moors on which the story centres (as an adjective,
       wuthering is a Yorkshire word referring to turbulent weather). The
       narrative tells the tale of the all-encompassing and passionate, yet
       thwarted, love between Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw, and how this
       unresolved passion eventually destroys them and many around them.
       (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wuthering_Heights)

       Setting (time) : The action of Nelly's story begins in the 1770s; Lockwood
 
       leaves Yorkshire in 1802.

       Setting (place) : All the action of Wuthering Heights takes place in or
 
       around two neighboring houses on the Yorkshire moors—Wuthering
       Heights and Thrushcross Grange. (www.sparknotes.com/lit/wuthering/facts.html)

The narrative is non-linear, involving several
 
       flashbacks, and two narrators - Mr. Lockwood
       and Ellen quot;Nellyquot; Dean. The novel opens in
       1801, with Lockwood arriving at Thrushcross
       Grange, a grand house on the Yorkshire moors
       he is renting from the surly Heathcliff, who
       lives at nearby Wuthering Heights. Nelly takes
       over the narration and begins her story thirty
       years earlier, when Heathcliff, a foundling
       living on the streets of Liverpool, is brought to
       Wuthering Heights by the then-owner, the
       kindly Mr. Earnshaw, and raised as his own.

Earnshaw's daughter Catherine becomes
 
       Heathcliff's inseparable friend. Her brother
       Hindley, however, resents Heathcliff, seeing him
       as an interloper and rival. Mr. Earnshaw dies three
       years later, and Hindley (who has married a
       woman named Frances) takes over the estate. He
       brutalises Heathcliff, forcing him to work as a
       hired hand. Catherine becomes friends with a
       neighbour family, the Lintons of Thrushcross
       Grange, who mellow her initially wild personality.
       She is especially attached to the refined and mild
       young Edgar Linton, whom Heathcliff instantly
       dislikes.

Some two years after that, Catherine agrees to marry
 
       Edgar. Nelly knows that this will crush Heathcliff, and
       Heathcliff overhears Catherine's explanation that it
       would be quot;degradingquot; to marry him. Heathcliff storms
       out and leaves Wuthering Heights, not hearing
       Catherine's continuing declarations that Heathcliff is as
       much a part of her as the rocks are to the earth beneath.
       Catherine marries Edgar, and is initially very happy.
       Some time later, Heathcliff returns, intent on
       destroying those who prevent him from being with
       Catherine.

'This is nothing,' cried she: 'I was only going to say that heaven
    did not seem to be my home; and I broke my heart with
    weeping to come back to earth; and the angels were so
    angry that they flung me out into the middle of the heath on
    the top of Wuthering Heights; where I woke sobbing for joy.
    That will do to explain my secret, as well as the other. I've
    no more business to marry Edgar Linton than I have to be in
    heaven; and if the wicked man in there had not brought
    Heathcliff so low, I shouldn't have thought of it. It would
    degrade me to marry Heathcliff now; so he shall never
    know how I love him: and that, not because he's handsome,
    Nelly, but because he's more myself than I am. Whatever
    our souls are made of, his and mine are the same; and
    Linton's is as different as a moonbeam from lightning, or
    frost from fire.'

‗Every Linton on the face of the earth might melt into
    nothing before I could consent to forsake
    Heathcliff. Oh, that's not what I intend - that's not
    what I mean! I shouldn't be Mrs. Linton were such
    a price demanded! He'll be as much to me as he
    has been all his lifetime. Edgar must shake off his
    antipathy, and tolerate him, at least. He will, when
    he learns my true feelings towards him. Nelly, I
    see now you think me a selfish wretch; but did it
    never strike you that if Heathcliff and I married,
    we should be beggars? whereas, if I marry Linton I
    can aid Heathcliff to rise, and place him out of my
    brother's power.'

What were the use of my creation, if I were entirely
   contained here? My great miseries in this world have
   been Heathcliff's miseries, and I watched and felt each
   from the beginning: my great thought in living is
   himself. If all else perished, and HE remained, I should
   still continue to be; and if all else remained, and he
   were annihilated, the universe would turn to a mighty
   stranger: I should not seem a part of it. - My love for
   Linton is like the foliage in the woods: time will change
   it, I'm well aware, as winter changes the trees. My love
   for Heathcliff resembles the eternal rocks beneath: a
   source of little visible delight, but necessary. Nelly, I
   AM Heathcliff! He's always, always in my mind: not as
   a pleasure, any more than I am always a pleasure to
   myself, but as my own being.

Out on the winding, windy moors            Ooh, it gets dark! It gets lonely,
    We'd roll and fall in green.               On the other side from you.
    You had a temper like my                   I pine a lot. I find the lot
    jealousy                                   Falls through without you.
    Too hot, too greedy.                       I'm coming back, love,
    How could you leave me,                    Cruel Heathcliff, my one dream,
    When I needed to possess you?              My only master.
    I hated you, but I loved you,
    too.                                        Too long I roamed in the night.
                                                I'm coming back to his side, to
       Bad dreams in the night                  put it right.
       You told me I was going to lose          I'm coming home to wuthering,
       the fight,                               wuthering,

                                                Let me grab your soul away.
       Heathcliff, it's me, I‘m Cathy,          Ooh! Let me have it.
       I've come home and I´m so cold,          Let me grab your soul away.

Wuthering Heights, an FCE lesson

  • 1. By Emily Brontë A lesson with FCE Class MARKAKI SCHOOL OF FOREIGN LANGUAGES 5/12/2008 1
  • 2. Respect? Money? MARKAKI SCHOOL OF FOREIGN LANGUAGES 5/12/2008 2
  • 3. Emily Jane Brontë (July 30,  1818 – December 19, 1848) was a British novelist and poet, now best remembered for her only novel Wuthering Heights, a classic of English literature. Emily was the second eldest of the three surviving Brontë sisters, being younger than Charlotte and older than Anne. She published under the masculine pen name Ellis Bell. She was born in Thornton in Yorkshire. For more information visit  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emily_Bronte MARKAKI SCHOOL OF FOREIGN LANGUAGES 5/12/2008 3
  • 4. Wuthering Heights is Emily Brontë's only novel. It was first published in  1847 under the pseudonym Ellis Bell, and a posthumous second edition was edited by her sister Charlotte. The name of the novel comes from the Yorkshire manor on the moors on which the story centres (as an adjective, wuthering is a Yorkshire word referring to turbulent weather). The narrative tells the tale of the all-encompassing and passionate, yet thwarted, love between Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw, and how this unresolved passion eventually destroys them and many around them. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wuthering_Heights) Setting (time) : The action of Nelly's story begins in the 1770s; Lockwood  leaves Yorkshire in 1802. Setting (place) : All the action of Wuthering Heights takes place in or  around two neighboring houses on the Yorkshire moors—Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange. (www.sparknotes.com/lit/wuthering/facts.html) MARKAKI SCHOOL OF FOREIGN LANGUAGES 5/12/2008 4
  • 5. The narrative is non-linear, involving several  flashbacks, and two narrators - Mr. Lockwood and Ellen quot;Nellyquot; Dean. The novel opens in 1801, with Lockwood arriving at Thrushcross Grange, a grand house on the Yorkshire moors he is renting from the surly Heathcliff, who lives at nearby Wuthering Heights. Nelly takes over the narration and begins her story thirty years earlier, when Heathcliff, a foundling living on the streets of Liverpool, is brought to Wuthering Heights by the then-owner, the kindly Mr. Earnshaw, and raised as his own. MARKAKI SCHOOL OF FOREIGN LANGUAGES 5/12/2008 5
  • 6. Earnshaw's daughter Catherine becomes  Heathcliff's inseparable friend. Her brother Hindley, however, resents Heathcliff, seeing him as an interloper and rival. Mr. Earnshaw dies three years later, and Hindley (who has married a woman named Frances) takes over the estate. He brutalises Heathcliff, forcing him to work as a hired hand. Catherine becomes friends with a neighbour family, the Lintons of Thrushcross Grange, who mellow her initially wild personality. She is especially attached to the refined and mild young Edgar Linton, whom Heathcliff instantly dislikes. MARKAKI SCHOOL OF FOREIGN LANGUAGES 5/12/2008 6
  • 7. Some two years after that, Catherine agrees to marry  Edgar. Nelly knows that this will crush Heathcliff, and Heathcliff overhears Catherine's explanation that it would be quot;degradingquot; to marry him. Heathcliff storms out and leaves Wuthering Heights, not hearing Catherine's continuing declarations that Heathcliff is as much a part of her as the rocks are to the earth beneath. Catherine marries Edgar, and is initially very happy. Some time later, Heathcliff returns, intent on destroying those who prevent him from being with Catherine. Read the rest of the story at  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wuthering_Heights MARKAKI SCHOOL OF FOREIGN LANGUAGES 5/12/2008 7
  • 8. Now read the handout.  (extract from Chapter 9) Main topic:  Catherine‘s motives to marry Edgar Online reading:  www.literature.org/authors/bronte- emily/wuthering-heights/chapter-09.html MARKAKI SCHOOL OF FOREIGN LANGUAGES 5/12/2008 8
  • 9. What are the reasons Catherine decides to  marry Edgar? Do you agree with her? How would you describe her character based  on this extract? What do you think about Nelly‘s reactions?  Why does Catherine‘s attitude change towards  the end of the extract? Can you predict what will happen next?  MARKAKI SCHOOL OF FOREIGN LANGUAGES 5/12/2008 9

  • 11. 'This is nothing,' cried she: 'I was only going to say that heaven did not seem to be my home; and I broke my heart with weeping to come back to earth; and the angels were so angry that they flung me out into the middle of the heath on the top of Wuthering Heights; where I woke sobbing for joy. That will do to explain my secret, as well as the other. I've no more business to marry Edgar Linton than I have to be in heaven; and if the wicked man in there had not brought Heathcliff so low, I shouldn't have thought of it. It would degrade me to marry Heathcliff now; so he shall never know how I love him: and that, not because he's handsome, Nelly, but because he's more myself than I am. Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same; and Linton's is as different as a moonbeam from lightning, or frost from fire.' MARKAKI SCHOOL OF FOREIGN LANGUAGES 5/12/2008 11
  • 12. ‗Every Linton on the face of the earth might melt into nothing before I could consent to forsake Heathcliff. Oh, that's not what I intend - that's not what I mean! I shouldn't be Mrs. Linton were such a price demanded! He'll be as much to me as he has been all his lifetime. Edgar must shake off his antipathy, and tolerate him, at least. He will, when he learns my true feelings towards him. Nelly, I see now you think me a selfish wretch; but did it never strike you that if Heathcliff and I married, we should be beggars? whereas, if I marry Linton I can aid Heathcliff to rise, and place him out of my brother's power.' MARKAKI SCHOOL OF FOREIGN LANGUAGES 5/12/2008 12
  • 13. What were the use of my creation, if I were entirely contained here? My great miseries in this world have been Heathcliff's miseries, and I watched and felt each from the beginning: my great thought in living is himself. If all else perished, and HE remained, I should still continue to be; and if all else remained, and he were annihilated, the universe would turn to a mighty stranger: I should not seem a part of it. - My love for Linton is like the foliage in the woods: time will change it, I'm well aware, as winter changes the trees. My love for Heathcliff resembles the eternal rocks beneath: a source of little visible delight, but necessary. Nelly, I AM Heathcliff! He's always, always in my mind: not as a pleasure, any more than I am always a pleasure to myself, but as my own being. MARKAKI SCHOOL OF FOREIGN LANGUAGES 5/12/2008 13
  • 14. What was Catherine‘s dream?  How does it relate to her marriage to Edgar?  How does she really feel about Edgar? What  metaphors does she use to express that? What deeper reasons does she have for  marrying him? How does she feel about Heathcliff? How does  she express that? How will this love story end in your opinion?  MARKAKI SCHOOL OF FOREIGN LANGUAGES 5/12/2008 14
  • 15. ‗Wuthering Heights‘ performed by  Hayley Westenra: www.youtube.com/watch?v=pkTF5DRBxpI The song was initially performed and written  by Kate Bush who derived her inspiration from this novel. For more information about the song visit:  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wuthering_Heights_(song) MARKAKI SCHOOL OF FOREIGN LANGUAGES 5/12/2008 15
  • 16. Out on the winding, windy moors Ooh, it gets dark! It gets lonely, We'd roll and fall in green. On the other side from you. You had a temper like my I pine a lot. I find the lot jealousy Falls through without you. Too hot, too greedy. I'm coming back, love, How could you leave me, Cruel Heathcliff, my one dream, When I needed to possess you? My only master. I hated you, but I loved you, too. Too long I roamed in the night. I'm coming back to his side, to Bad dreams in the night put it right. You told me I was going to lose I'm coming home to wuthering, the fight, wuthering, Leave behind my wuthering, Wuthering Heights, wuthering Wuthering Heights. Ooh! Let me have it. Let me grab your soul away. Heathcliff, it's me, I‘m Cathy, Ooh! Let me have it. I've come home and I´m so cold, Let me grab your soul away. let me in your window You know it's me--Cathy!
