  • 1 Wuthering Heights (William Wyler, 1939; Robert Fuest, 1970; Jacques
    1 Wuthering Heights (William Wyler, 1939; Robert Fuest, 1970; Jacques Rivette, 1985; Peter Kosminsky, 1992) Wyler’s ghastly sentimental version concedes nothing to the proletariat: with the exception of Leo G. Carroll, who discards his usual patrician demeanour and sports a convincing Yorkshire accent as Joseph, all the characters are as bourgeois as Sam Goldwyn could have wished. Not even Flora Robson as Ellen Dean – she should have known better – has the nerve to go vocally downmarket. Heathcliff may come from the streets of Liverpool, and may have been brought up in the dales, but Olivier’s moon-eyed Romeo-alternative version of him (now and again he looks slightly dishevelled, and slightly malicious) comes from RADA and nowhere else. Any thought that Heathcliff is diabolical, or that either he or Catherine come from a different dimension altogether was, it’s clear, too much for Hollywood to think about. Couple all this with Merle Oberon’s flat face, white makeup, too-straight nose and curtailed hairstyles, and you have a recipe for disaster. We’re alerted to something being wrong when, on the titles, the umlaut in Emily’s surname becomes an acute accent. Oberon announces that she “ is Heathcliff!” in some alarm, as if being Heathcliff is the last thing she’d want to be. When Heathcliff comes back, he can of course speak as high and mightily as one could wish – and does: and the returned Olivier has that puzzled way of looking straight through a person as if they weren’t there which was one of his trademarks (see left): for a moment the drama looks as if it might ratchet up a notch or two.

  • Human Reincarnation, Reformation, and Redemption in Wuthering Heights
    Educating the Passions: Human Reincarnation, Reformation, and Redemption in Wuthering Heights A Thesis Submitted to the Committee on Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Faculty of Arts and Science TRENT UNIVERSITY Peterborough, Ontario, Canada © Copyright by Shahira Adel Hathout 2018 English (Public Texts) M.A. Graduate Program May 2018 Abstract Educating the Passions: Human Reincarnation and Reformation in Wuthering Heights Shahira Adel Hathout My thesis proposes to uncover what I term an Emilian Philosophy in the reading of Emily Brontë’s only novel, and suggests that Wuthering Heights reflects Brontë’s vision of a society progressing toward social and spiritual reform. Through this journey, Brontë seeks to conciliate the two contrasting sides of humanity – natural and social – by offering a middle state that willingly incorporates social law without perverting human nature by forcing it to mold itself into an unnatural social system, which in turn leads to a “wholesome” (Gesunde) humanity. While Heathcliff embodies Bronte’s view of a primitive stage of humanity, Hareton reincarnates the wholesome state of humanity that balances human natural creativity and cravings with Victorian unrelenting reason. Brontë treats Heathcliff’s death as a point in life, in which mankind is emancipated from social constraints and is able to achieve ultimate happiness. This view of death is reassuring as it displaces the anxiety associated with death and separation. My study will highlight the influence of Friedrich Schiller’s, Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s Philosophical writings and literary works, as well as the influence of the Franciscan Order in Catholicism and its founder St Francis of Assisi, patron saint of animals and environment, in framing Bronte’s philosophy to propose a social and religious reform anchored in nature.

This perception is often perpetuated within literature, as any mentally ill characters are written as two- dimensional lunatics rather than real people, or the authors choose to avoid the issue of mental illness within their novels altogether. During the Victorian era, the accepted practice was to send these people away to asylums, thereby minimizing any burden on the family members, but this time period was also a turning point in scientific thought surrounding mental health, which in turn led to a reform in the treatment of the mentally ill within these asylums.

  • A Chronology of Her Own
    Space and borders in Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights by Jan Albert Myburgh A dissertation submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in English in the Department of English at the UNIVERSITY OF PRETORIA FACULTY OF HUMANITIES Supervisor: Professor David Medalie August 2013 © University of Pretoria I herewith declare that Space and borders in Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights is my own work and that all the sources I have used have been acknowledged by means of complete references. ____________________________ ____________________________ ii © University of Pretoria Acknowledgements I would like to thank Professor Medalie for his time, dedication, and prompt and very detailed feedback. I would also like to thank all my relatives, friends, and colleagues who supported me throughout this endeavour. iii © University of Pretoria Abstract Critics such as Elizabeth Napier and Lorraine Sim explore some aspects of space and borders in their discussions of Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights, presumably to demonstrate that the novel is a representative nineteenth-century text that depicts and comments on fundamentally nineteenth-century debates and concerns. However, the existing critical work on Brontë’s novel does not include analyses that incorporate spatial theories such as those of Henri Lefebvre, Edward Soja, Michel Foucault, and Henk van Houtum in their discussion of Brontë’s narrative as a seminal nineteenth-century work of fiction. These spatial theories maintain that those who occupy positions of power in society shape and remodel the spaces and borders in which society exists and of which it consists, and impose these constructs on the other members of society to ensure social order and to safeguard their own position of authority within the structure of society.

The haunting and gothic novel is a shocking and passionate portrayal of ungoverned love and cruelty across desolate landscapes with two of the most memorable lovers in literature. Tom Hardy plays dark and brooding Heathcliff alongside newcomer Charlotte Riley as Cathy. Acclaimed television actress Sarah Lancashire takes on the role of housekeeper Nelly, while Andrew Lincoln is Edgar, Cathy’s forlorn husband. Burn Gorman stars as Cathy’s brother Hindley, and Kevin R. McNally plays Mr Earnshaw. In a new interpretation of the story, the role of Church Organist, John Cowpe, takes on a much greater significance in revealing Heathciliff’s essential nature. Multi-award winning writer, Peter Bowker has written some of the most original dramas of the past decade, including Blackpool, Flesh and Blood, Buried Treasure and Occupation. Wuthering Heights is executive produced by Michele Buck and Damien Timmer from Mammoth Screen, writer Peter Bowker and Hugo Heppell from Screen Yorkshire. The 2 x 90 minute film is directed by Coky Giedroyc and produced by Radford Neville.

  • Wuthering Heights on the Screen: Exploring the Relations Between Film Adaptation and Subtitling
    WUTHERING HEIGHTS ON THE SCREEN: EXPLORING THE RELATIONS BETWEEN FILM ADAPTATION AND SUBTITLING Paula Ramalho Almeida, Sara Cerqueira Pascoal, Suzana Noronha Cunha Instituto Superior de Contabilidade e Administração do Porto ISCAP Portugal [email protected]/[email protected]/[email protected] Abstract This essay aims to confront the literary text Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë with five of its screen adaptations and Portuguese subtitles. Owing to the scope of the study, it will necessarily afford merely a bird‘s eye view of the issues and serve as a starting point for further research. Accordingly, the following questions are used as guidelines: What transformations occur in the process of adapting the original text to the screen? Do subtitles update the film dialogues to the target audience‘s cultural and linguistic context? Are subtitles influenced more by oral speech than by written literary discourse? Shouldn‘t subtitles in fact reflect the poetic function prevalent in screen adaptations of literary texts? Rather than attempt to answer these questions, we focus on the objects as phenomena. Our interdisciplinary undertaking clearly involves a semio-pragmatic stance, at this stage trying to avoid theoretical backdrops that may affect our apprehension of the objects as to their qualities, singularities, and conventional traits, based on Lucia Santaella‘s interpretation of Charles S. Peirce‘s phaneroscopy. From an empirical standpoint, we gather features and describe peculiarities, under the presumption that there are substrata in subtitling that point or should point to the literary source text, albeit through the mediation of a film script and a particular cinematic style.

  • I Am Heathcliff!” Paradoxical Love in Brontë’S Wuthering Heights
    Stockholm University Department of Literature and History of Ideas Literature Studies “I am Heathcliff!” Paradoxical Love in Brontë’s Wuthering Heights Nina Levin Degree project Submitted to James Spens Spring 2012 Abstract This essay is an analysis of Emily Brontë’s novel “Wuthering Heights” and revolves mainly around the love between the two main characters, Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, and how they express this love, either through words or through actions. Paradoxes concerning their love and paradoxes concerning the narration of the novel are of interest as well. The analysis employs Genette’s theories and terminology in the narrative analysis. The essay first discusses the effect of the narrative levels and paradoxes that can be found concerning these narratives and then investigates some events in “Wuthering Heights” that are linked to the two main characters’ love for one another. The events are analyzed in chronological order and discuss the paradoxes found in those events. The essay concludes by giving a short summary of the way Catherine and Heathcliff expresses their love for one another and the paradoxes found concerning this love. The narration is of importance since its complex structure allows for the entire novel to be read as one paradox. Disregarding the narration, the paradoxes found are many. The paradoxical love of Catherine and Heathcliff concern their love for one another in the sense that Catherine chooses to marry Edgar instead of Heathcliff and that she claims that Heathcliff killed her. They concern the way the act upon their love for one another in the sense that Catherine was double natured.
