1. 研究目的与意义

At first, I think many people have keen interest on this female author, Emily Bronte, her short life, her different experiences and her everything. I wonder why she wrote such a tragedy from beginning to the end. What she had met and did during her thirty years. Personally, I think she has the ideal characteristics of a legend female. And she makes people have desire to explore her life and mind. So it is helpful to know this woman by learning her work, Wuthering Heights.

Wuthering Heights written by Emily Bronte is a novel filled with many emotions and activity. Her characters represent a bitter and drastic conflict between love and hate.It was published in 1847, and many people do not know the work, Wuthering Heights, didn#8217;t gain immediate success after its publication, many of whom condemned it as sordid, vulgar, and unnatural. It was not until 1850, when Wuthering Heights received a second printing with an introduction by Emily#8217;s sister Charlotte, that it attracted a wide readership. Today it is widely regarded as one of the great novels of English literature. And Emily has left an indelible mark in the literary world by virtue of this work.

And also the novel tells the story of love and revenge, spanning over two generations and thirty years, through a love tragedy, it reflects an abnormal social picture. In this novel, everywhere you can see the shadow of tragedy. But many scholars and critics still have lots of controversies and arguments of the theme, tragedy color and significance of this great work, which many analysis are just around the two hero''''''''s love tragedy, and in fact it is a complex and big tragedy plot throughout the work, it is not only on Catherine and Heathcliff''''''''s love, so for the whole, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the tragedy theme in Wuthering Heights, so that more readers can see the expression of the deep meanings of the work, rather than a so-called love story. And I do believe a completely and in-depth analysis about the Wuthering heights is better for us to study the novel well.

Emily Bronte#8217;s is a mysterious poet and novelist, her only powerful novel Wuthering Heights not only creates a harrowing tale of passion and tragedy with happy ending, but also shows a full picture of Victorian Age. In this romantic novel, Emily not only creates Gothic atmosphere, but also explores some major themes of love and passion, revenge, nature and culture, religion. They are violating Victorian values and tastes. Actually, Wuthering Heights is no more than an autobiography of Emily herself.

3. 国内外研究现状

Since the book#8217;s publication, Wuthering Heights has captured the attention and imagination of researchers. They hold many controversial views about the love tragedy between Catherine and Heathcliff. Some of them attribute the cause of tragedy to Heathcliff#8217;s revenge. Some scholars argue that Heathcliff#8217;s revenge is acceptable and reasonable; Heathcliff has experienced tremendous suffering, pain injury and shame in his life. So it is difficult to say that Heathcliff is good or bad, because with the change of his background and status, he performed different with different motivations.

Also someone believes that Catherine has unilateral culpability for this tragedy. Because of her betray and money worship. People hold different ideas about their tragic love. And people could feel that Catherine is a typical female image of that time.

Catherine has both thoughts of freedom and spirit of revolt and vanity and class prejudice.
