You said I killed you - haunt me, then! Wuthering Heights is one of the most famous love stories in the English language. It is also one of the most potent revenge narratives. The intense and unbreakable bond between the fiery Catherine Earnshaw and the foundling Heathcliff has startled and fascinated readers since its first publication in 1847. Of uncertain parentage and ethnicity, Heathcliff comes to Wuthering Heights as a child when Catherine s father finds him wandering alone through the slave-trading port of Liverpool. After Mr Earnshaw s death, Heathcliff and Catherine find refuge in each other when the household falls into the hands of Catherine s dissolute older brother. Their bond deepens as they escape together from the violence and stern religion of their home to the Yorkshire moors. But the story of Catherine and Heathcliff s attachment transforms from intimacy to strife when Catherine marries the refined Edgar Linton. The ensuing story of violence and thwarted passion is one of the most powerful tales of the gothic tradition, a literary mode from which Emily Brontë wrings all of its terrifying potential. A regional novel with a global reach, a work of sensational effects with a startling ethical core, Wuthering Heights is both a romantic melodrama and wrenching study of the difficulty of escaping from the legacies of violence.This edition reproduces the authoritative Clarendon text, with revised and expanded notes and a selection from the poems of Emily Brontë.

The book consists of nineteen of Graeme Tytler⠙s essays, originally published in the journal Brontë Studies over the years. Each of the essays is a critical discussion of one particular aspect of Emily Brontë s masterpiece, based on a close reading of the text. This second collection continues to draw attention to Emily s remarkable versatility as a novelist by pointing up again the skill with which she has constructed the plot, the inventiveness with which she has created an astonishing variety of complex characters, and the brilliance with which she has made structural use of her central themes. And although Wuthering Heights is famous above all for its extraordinary love story, these essays explore deeper meanings and shades of the plot, characters and even props, to open the eyes of the reader who will perhaps experience a new, surprising enjoyment of the novel.

Na statek jménem Drozdov přijíždí z Londýna, aby tu užil klidného života v ústraní, pan Lockwood a záhy se seznamuje s obyvateli nedaleké usedlosti: ponurého, osamělého místa zvaného Větrná hůrka. Jeho majitel, temný a prchlivý Heatcliff, tu žije ve společnosti dvou mladých lidí Katky a Haretona. Z vyprávění své služebné Nelly se pan Lockwood postupně dozvídá o dramatické historii obyvatel Větrné hůrky a lásce mezi Katčinou matkou Kateřinou a Heatcliffem. Jejich příběh, odehrávající se v nehostinné krajině yorkshirských vřesovišť, není pouhým romantickým setkáním dvou milujících lidí, ale především vášnivým vztahem dvou nespoutaných, komplikovaných osobností, jejichž vztah poznamená nerovné postavení, ctižádost, ale i touha po pomstě. Tento román je jediným dílem spisovatelky Emily Brontëové, a když byl v roce 1847 pod pseudonymem Ellis Bell vydán, nevzbudil žádný mimořádný ohlas, snad kvůli své nezvyklé a složité kompozici nebo možná nejednoznačností povah jeho hlavních hrdinů. Postupně si k němu ale čtenáři našli cestu a stal se jedním z vrcholných děl anglické literatury.

The poems of Emily Jane Bronte are passionate and powerful works that convey the vitality of the human spirit and of the natural world. Only twenty-one of her poems were published during her lifetime - this volume contains those and all others attributed to her. Many poems describe the mythic country of Gondal and its citizens that she imagined with Anne, and remain the only surviving record of their joint creation. Other visionary works, including Remembrance and No coward soul is mine , boldly confront mortality and anticipate life after death. And poems such as Redbreast early in the morning and The blue bell is the sweetest flower evoke the wild beauties of nature she observed on the Yorkshire moors, while also examining the state of her psyche.
