well I think that Bronte achive this feat `cause she made this story based on suspence, love, passion also she made that the climax to the story was interesting. luisana
ResponderEliminarOne of the aspects that I consider writers take into consideration at the moment of writing a book, is their life. Hence, I might say that Wuthering Heights was similar to Brontë's life; Illnesses everywhere, people dying at an early age (Emile's brothers and sisters) villages far away from society, and so on. So, I think the writer took these alements to narrate the novel and create that master piece. Besides, she was bright because made up situations that catch the attention of the reader.
ResponderEliminarHowever, I consider that this novel has a lot of tragedy, reason why ones keeps reading to find out if there is a happy ending as usually.
of course as Sari said,Bronte take their own life to writte the novel, including in this experiences of her life, creating characters with behavior similary to the members of her family.
ResponderEliminarHello! I agree with you girls, because Wuthering Heights is a tragic love story, and has even been labelled “Emily Bronte’s great story of hate.” And in a way, that’s true. Almost every character has love and hates relationship too.
ResponderEliminarBronte was brought up in the moors, and this is the setting for Wuthering Heights. Her two other sisters had died young, and her Mother a year after Anne’s birth. This just shows the tragedy and loss that Bronte went through in her life. The losses she had to deal with at such a young age. Bronte’s early life, in my opinion, was what led her to write Wuthering Heights.
Why do you think Mr. Earnshaw brought home Heathcliff to his family?
ResponderEliminarProbably, Mr. Earnshaw couldn't be heartless and leave him hopeless in the streets, or the boy reminded him his son who died during childhood whose name was "Heathcliff" actually. :P
ResponderEliminarWhat do you think?
I think so that Mr Earnshaw wanted to Heathcliff when he found him in the streets. He wanted him like a son and for that reason Mr earnshaw brought to their home with the rest of the familes
ResponderEliminardark-skinned boy abandoned by his parents. Earnshaw can not leave him behind. He decides to return with him to Wuthering Heights and raises the boy and he call him Heathcliff wherefore Mr. Earnshaw take this decision brought to Heathcliff home to his family, biside this boy remind his son and Heathcliff is treated Earnshaw`s own child and enjoin whit a girl and a boy they are calling Catherine, and, Hindley.
ResponderEliminarHow do you explain the negative reactions of others to him?
ResponderEliminarWell, his brother Hindley, who finds himself excluded from his father's affections by this newcomer, quickly learns to hate him but Catherine grows very attached to him. Soon Heathcliff and Catherine are like twins.
ResponderEliminarBecause of this discord, Hindley is eventually sent to college but he returns, three years later, when Mr Earnshaw dies. With a new wife, Frances, he becomes master of Wuthering Heights and forces Heathcliff to become a servant instead of a member of the family.
Well, when Heathcliff was a kid, he was already hated by Hindley. Mr. Earnshaw'son felt as if the love of his father was stolen by that intruder who was not even their family.
ResponderEliminarHeathcliff was pretty quite but the mistreatment that he suffered during his childhood made him an unsensitive person and eventually fearsome.
1rst Question...I agree with the girls!!...I think that Bronte wrote Wuthering Heights intertwining her life, her experiences and the development of society at that time with each of the characters that make up this work.
ResponderEliminarI guess that Wuthering Heights was one of the most creative ways that Emilie chose to vent or just coping and find solution to her problems.

ResponderEliminarMr. Earnshaw found a child on the streets of liverpool, he brought him to his house and he introduce him to his son Hindley and his daugther Catherine like their brother, and he named "heathcliff" like his son dead
ResponderEliminarThe negative reason was when Mr. Earnshaw brought him home and the other person felt jealous him beside Heathcliff was attractive and quite boy and Earnshaw'son were selfish whit him and.
ResponderEliminarHindley hate him but Catherine when saw him felt love at first sight
Is this a difficult novel? Explain why!

ResponderEliminarYes. It is!!
ResponderEliminarThe novel tell us about different characters with similar names. It creates confuse: Hethcliff, Hereton, Hindley. And about the Catherines, Catherine Earshaw and Catherine Linton. And the Edgar Linton's son has the same name that his last name...Linton Linton??
I think Emilie Bronte created a confuse atmosphere to make the novel more interesting. She want the reader will discover each one character in Wuthering Heights.
hi everyone...about the first question i agree with all,but i dont like this novel..emilie
ResponderEliminarbronte create of the suspence,and confuse novel this is the interesting but,she wants that the reader think and think of the others character and analized their personalities.
well I consider this story its so dificult because the terms that used the writter was so old and sometimes during I read I confuses for that reason and the names of the characters also confuse me.
ResponderEliminarhi again..!! i agree with luisana;yes was very dificult for me when i read´cause the terms use in this novel are confuse and the language is old;for that reason i don´t understang some frases, in the other hand the characters have similar names and i don´t know diferensiate one of others...!
ResponderEliminarAbout the third question:well I think the negative reaction Hindley sees Heathcliff as a rival when Mr. Earnshaw, his father, brings him home (an orphan) and instantly treats him with animosity. Eventually, this gives way to Mr. Earnshaw's favoring Heathcliff as his favorite child,cause him was a good person,above son Hindley and daughter Catherine, and thus leaving Hindley in hatred of his "foster-brother". For that reason is that Hindley sees the opportunity to show his anger and jealousy toward created in him, and thus punishes him by making him a servant at Wuthering Heights, forcing him to work relentlessly.
ResponderEliminarwell it was a long book but, not complicate some of the chapters were very complicated, at the begining it was soo confusing because i did not know that the person who started narrating the story was the renter of Liton`s hause,in my opinion it was an inappropriate story for that time,in this ages still being inappropriate book but some readers love tragedy.
ResponderEliminarIN MY OPINION THIS NOVEL WAS VERY INTERESTING AND IT WAS NOT DIFICULT BUT REALLY WAS VERY LONG AND SOMES CHAPTERS OF THE NOVEL WERE DIFICULTS TO UNDERTANND BECAUSE THE PERSON OF THE NOVEL WERE FAMLIRY AND THEY WAS MARRIED WHIT EACH OTHER AT THE END OF THE NOVEL I DONT` LIKE BECAUSE CATHERINE AND HARETON WERE TO BE MARRIED AND THEY WOULD MOVE TO THE GRANGE.LEVING WUTHERING HEIGHTS TO JOSEPH AND THE GHOSTS
