Abstract

Emily Bronte's “Wuthering Heights” shows deformed social life pictures and distorted humanity through love tragedy, and the whole story is actually spread out gradually through four stages. Re-reading “Wuthering Heights”, we can appreciate the love depicted by the writer in the book, the emotion between Catherine and Heathcliff, which is so intense that people can't stand it, and this is also the need of burning life. How is the position of women in love, marriage and family reflected in the works? The article will understand and analyze from the following three aspects: misplaced love, wrong time and space, and their cruel marriage and family.
