Wuthering Heights的英文总结
Wuthering Heights is a novel by Emily Brontë published in 1847.It was her only novel and written between December 1845 and July 1846.It remained unpublished until July 1847 and was not printed until December after the success of her sister Charlotte Brontë's novel Jane Eyre.It was finally printed under the pseudonym Ellis Bell; a posthumous second edition was edited by Charlotte.
The title of the novel comes from the Yorkshire manor on the moors of the story.The narrative centres on the all-encompassing,passionate but doomed love between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff,and how this unresolved passion eventually destroys them and many around them.
Today considered a classic of English literature,Wuthering Heights was met with mixed reviews when it first appeared,mainly because of the narrative's stark depiction of mental and physical cruelty.Although Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre was generally considered the best of the Brontë sisters' works during most of the nineteenth century,many subsequent critics of Wuthering Heights argued that it was a superior achievement.Wuthering Heights has also given rise to many adaptations and inspired works,including films,radio,television dramatisations,a musical by Bernard J.Taylor,a ballet,three operas (respectively by Bernard Herrmann,Carlisle Floyd,and Frédéric Chaslin),a role-playing game,and a song by Kate Bush.
