Commentary on Heathcliff in Wuthering Heights

The image of Heathcliff is one of the characters that I have received the most inspiration for in this work. He is alive, he exists. He's not really a devil, at most he's a bit perverted. Even so, in terms of his personal experience, perversion is reasonable and should happen. Catherine's betrayal of love, the beating and contempt of his brother, made him gradually away from the beginning of human nature from an ordinary child, and the cruelty of reality made this already pitiful orphan even more helpless. Just think: if these bad things didn't happen to him, at least if Catherine didn't betray their love, Heathcliff would be completely self-reliant and could make Catherine happy, because he really loved her, and he cherished her at the same time. her, including her thoughts, her desires. If Catherine gave Heathcliff a chance, the brutal beatings and false accusations of the brothers would not cause Heathcliff to fear the future. If there was such a chance, Heathcliff would surely acquire a similar beautiful and rich manor.

However, everything is not so beautiful as imagined, so Heathcliff has changed, and his ugly actions completely cover up the pure heart that is kind and looking for love. After he achieved something, he returned to the villa and took it as his own. He began to take revenge. He wanted to erupt the flames that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time to burn down this place that made him fear and despair. He wanted to burn everyone who had hurt him.

Probably when the audience saw his inhuman revenge, they were full of resentment and dissatisfaction. Why did such a person want him to come back alive, and why not let him die? But I just want to say that the one who should die is not him, but those ruthless snobs. He also wanted to live his own life like a farmer. However, at the end of the revenge, Heathcliff's conscience was picked up again. When he got everything, he ended up not getting Katherine to accompany him for the rest of the year. So, it is a great regret after a big mistake. In his view, so many years of struggle and struggle are ultimately just a meaningless illusion. Let his definition of love be too superficial when he hits the head. In the end, it should feel like I was deceived. Life made fun of him, and his feelings also made fun of his youthful beauty. What I get in my later years can only be the pain left behind by deep thoughts and thoughts. In the end, from evil to good, he returned to the track of human nature. He forgave the world and gave back. The world also repented of its past and easily accommodated Heathcliff.

In my opinion, this is the most rational and perfect ending. Get what we deserve, get what we planted many years ago, whether it is the pain and sorrow left over, or respect and reverence; whether it is good or bad. you deserve this.

    Great Gatsby 100 years ago version, quack! At the beginning, no one was optimistic about a certain employee. After a few years, the king returned, and everyone called him the young master... the originator of the dog blood drama

    It's simply unbearable... If you change the title of the film and the name of the person, it will definitely not be as unwelcoming as it is now. The story of cutting off the next generation for the length of time is acceptable, but Cathy being changed like this is simply unbearable! It's just your broken feelings that pop up classic dialogues from time to time, are you embarrassed? ! The delicate and pretentious opening and end of the film, trying to incite a poignant and touching love story, the way it is handled is really unappetizing... The Edgart role is very good.

Wuthering Heights quotes

  • Heathcliff: I want to crawl to her feet, whimper to be forgiven... for loving me. For needing her more than my own life... for belonging to her more than my own soul.

  • Hindley: If she's run off with that gypsy scum, let her run. Let her run through storm and Hell. They're birds of a feather and the Devil can take them both. Now, get me a bottle.
